The black cottage was the perfect place for us to relax after weeks of travel. A lovely home with French doors opening to a sunny beautiful garden. The kitchen was comfortable and well stocked with the tools we needed to prepare our meals. I really enjoyed walking in the neighborhood and it was an easy drive to restaurants and lake front park.
