Lovely little cottage on a gorgeous stretch of river

We stayed at the cottage over Easter wknd and had an absolutely lovely time. It was chilly outside but so cozy and warm indoors. We got out for a few hikes and played along the river's edge, had a few campfires and enjoyed the supply of boardgames and dvds. We hope to come back again soon. Maybe next time in warmer weather so we can play in the river!

We just got back from the weekend stay at this beautiful cottage. It was very quiet and the place is very secluded so there is a complete privacy. We really liked that there were several places outside where we could sit and relax. In this way, each couple had their own space to sit and enjoy the view. We fished from the dock. The most successful fishing is in the evening, after 5 pm. The place is clean, warm and has everything you wish for.

Disappointing

Really wasn't anywhere to relax and read a book outside or limited options to sit in, water (river) was very weedy and we ended up getting what the pharmacists in town called swimmers itch from the river. The cottage is quite dark and set back in trees so limited light wasn't ideal. Overall very mediocre and really limited water activities to take part in with the weedy shallow water.
