Jul 22, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Kennisis A lovely 3 bedroom cottage. Sunny and bright. Comfortable beds. Fully equipped kitchen and gas bbq on the sun deck. Sun deck with lovely views. Lots of nearby cottages but they are nearly invisible from the property. Nearest full grocery store about 30 min drive along paved roads. Snack store/milk etc about 20 minutes. Accèss to the water from the cottage is by uneven/natural steps with a handrail. We were allowed use of kayaks canoe and SUP. Adult life jackets were available. The water is deep enough for diving off the dock and is beautifully clear. The bottom is gravel/pebble. It shelves very quickly from the shore. We had a brilliant time. ##### Rip D.
