High-end Cottage

We had a great experience, though it was outside of the summer season. The old cottage is wonderfully equipped and decorated, giving us a taste of another world.

Meir, Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you discovered the cottage is a wonderful respite both "in season" and out. Views of the sunset and sunrise at the lake can be enjoyed all year round and the fire place makes a cozy spot to stay warm during the colder season. You're welcome back anytime.
