We are on a private road with 10 other homes/cottages. Our cottage is on a 50 x 200 ft lot. and is surrounded by cedar hedges so is very private.
It has 3 bedrooms that sleeps 8.
The bathroom has a sink and toilet and the hot water shower is located outside beside the sauna.
The Galley Kitchen has 2 stove top burners and microwave.
Enjoy doing all your cooking on the outdoor BBQ. keeping the heat outside rather than in!!
Enjoy days on the water either swimming to the raft, canoeing, in the paddleboat or rowboat. Lots of life jackets to choose from, and the boats are on our shoreline ready to use.
Catch fish off the dock or out in the lake. Fishing rods are in the shed. Be sure to get your fishing license beforehand.
The cottage is full of games for all ages, puzzles, DVD and VHS player with unlimited movies. Enjoy unlimited internet too.
There's always a badminton net up and ready to use with 4 racquets or try a game of volleyball
