First off, great host, super responsive. The cottage is beautiful, nice and cozy, but not cramped. Lots of sleeping and eating space inside and out on the big deck. Nice firepit and hottub were great. We brought a badminton net and there was enough open space beside the cottage to set it up. Kids liked playing in the forest also. The cottage is on a quiet and shallow bay, separate from, but accessible by canoe to the big lake. From the cottage, it's a bit of a climb down to the water and there's a small dirt road to cross (a dead-end street with a couple other cottages further down so very quiet). It's weedy off the dock if that bothers you - it didn't bother us and swimming was fine out about 10 m. The bonus is lots of pike and bass. Overall we had a great time here and would go back again.
