Renovated cottage with all the amenities and appliances you’ll need. Very good wifi and TVs in all rooms. Board games and badminton and corn hole for the kids or the kids at heart. The owners are pet lovers and left treats and water bowls for our dogs. Thanks Christine. We spent the labour day weekend and had an enjoyable stay. Highly recommended. ##### Shawn D.
