Summary: The cottage was well equipped with a first floor ensuite that suited our needs for this trip. The kitchen was clean and well-stocked with everything that we needed and more.At first, we thought the bed might be too firm for us, but it was much more comfortable than expected and we both slept well all four nights.Comfortable seating in the living room was much appreciated and the cottage has a very large TV, a happy surprise in a small cottage. Staying over Thanksgiving, we could not enjoy all the extras this property offers to their summer guests, but we can verify that the heating system is robust.We are happy to know that this property, that is so close to our relatives, is available for future visits.Thank you to our hosts!

Summary: The house was as described. It is not large, but there was plenty of room for the 4 of us. It was very clean, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked. Very peaceful setting with great view of the river. We enjoyed sitting on the riverfront deck in the evening. Having the propane grill available was perfect for dinner by the water. We will definitely consider this property the next time we are in the area.

Summary: Could not have asked for a more perfect stay. We came up for a wedding and loved every minute of our time! The cottage was perfect in every way for us….the fishing, kayaking, crabbing, hanging out on the dock and talking to the owners. The location and scenery of the drive to the cottage were amazing, as well as the neighbors around being very kind making you feel part of the neighborhood! You don’t find that all the time!!

Summary: This cottage is welcoming and accomdates well a small group of friends. Beds were very comfortable and the home was wonderfully cool when we arrived - much appreciated as outdoor temps were in the high 90s. The owners are friendly and always make sure we have everthing we need (we've stayed at this site before). Unique amenities include a shady site with grand trees, a deck overlooking the river with a grill and seating, a small beach and swimming, and a large firepit. A great accommodation while we attended the Diamond States Rowing Regatta, and I hope to be able to return in the future. Thank you, Gene and Suzanne!
