An experience

We had a somewhat rocky start with hot water, but Andrew was attentive and did his best to rectify the problem. The cottage was nicely prepared, beds attracively made, towels laid out, and the interior orderly. Very nice gas grill, and beautiful views enjoyed even more with very comfortable patio furniture. Boathouse was a godsend. Overall, an enjoyavblke trip and experience. Andrew is a nice man .
