The cottage was quaint with lovely art work and furnishings. The main room is open with tons of light. We loved the deck, the fire pit, the charcoal grill, and the pond. The path to the pond requires some agility and secure footwear. We loved sitting on the dock, in the shade, on a hot day. There is a ladder to get from the dock into the water. We loved the open water swimming. The canoe allowed us to travel around the perimeter and observe herons. The beach pass is to a nice town beach that was not too crowded, with restrooms and outdoor showers.
