This was a wonderful cottage for our stay and anyone looking for an escape from the city. The pictures are true to what you can expect. The cottage has been updated but the owner maintained the heritage aspects of the cottage. Spectacular evening sunsets with unobstructive views. May not be appropriate for small children with the waterfront drop. We will definitely consider this cottage for any future stays.
