Summary: The "getaway" was very clean and well equipped with everything you would need in the kitchen and lots of games and puzzles for the family. The air conditioning worked well during a very hot week.The lake is lovely and we enjoyed the use of the pedal boat and paddle boards. Unfortunately, the entry to the water from the dock is gravelly, and the lake bottom is very mucky with dead branches underwater, making swimming a bit tricky until you get out to deeper water.The children loved the backyard and the fire pit for making s'mores!The one unexpected thing in the cottage was the fact that there is no door to the upstairs suite, allowing all the sound from the kitchen and dining room to intrude on the space.All in all we had a great time and would recommend it to anyone looking for a break from the city.
