Marga and Rico's cottage is very much as it's depicted in the pictures - spacious, private, and cozy. A very unique place to stay, and their location on the Amstel River is spectacular. It was a cold week in Amsterdam, but with the help of the wood burner and an electric blanket, the cottage stays warm enough. You do have to venture outside to the boat to use the bathroom, however the family made me feel very welcome and it's not far.
