We were there on Business and made this trip into a Business/vacation. Relaxing by the river doing some fishing. We did not want to leave. Prefect for all occasions.
We had an amazing stay at the cottage. The property is amazing, great communication and we had everything we needed during our stay. We enjoyed seeing the sunrise reflect on the water and how peaceful the surroundings are. Wish we could have been able to stay longer to enjoy more. Highly recommend!
