Cozy and comfortable

It was the perfect place for our short break. Host was very helpful in directing us to this property which had, essentially, a private beach. Well equipped, we made all of our meals in the cottage, did some kayaking and had some great walks. Would go again.

This cottage is truly amazing, located on the west shore of the peninsula. It offers the perfect spot to watch the sunset while sitting by the campfire, surrounded by family and friends. The cottage was exceptionally clean and provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The hosts also provided very clear instructions regarding entry and usage, making our arrival smooth and stress-free.
