Beautiful cottage in a wonderful location. Cottage was very clean and had everything we needed during our stay. Malcome and Penny are amazing and made our stay very enjoyable. When the weather wasn't great we could relax and read at the bay window overlooking the lake, and when the water was calm cought fish straight from the back lawn. Highly recommended!
