10/10 Excellent
"I really enjoyed my stay here, and the staff were so friendly. The only problem in my room was the lack of closet space, but the staff told me they were going to work on that and liked my suggestion as to what they could do. The pool was lovely, I only wish I was there in the summer to enjoy it even more. It's a great place to stay, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone who asked me about it. Thanks for a great stay!!"

"Jan and I were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary, and Jim dropped by to present us with a bottle of bubbly on ice. How’s that for a great host! The “cottage” is the right size for couples like us. It was immaculate. On the way home, we realized that we didn’t hear any cars, dogs, music, etc from the neighborhood. Ah! peace and quiet. Of course, this is the off season, but I’m sure that this location will always be good for us. We decided to go to Stratford and see “Gus & Dolls”. What a thrill. We are sure that we will be coming back to the “Cottage”."
