We donโt recommend this property for toddlers or young kids for safety reasons outdoors. We plan to upgrade in the future. There are 3 natural, uneven stone steps from the path onto the deck with handrail.
There are exterior metal roll down window shutters that make great black out for sleeping as well as fabric blinds inside. Due to the proximity of the TransCanada highway, some people may notice some traffic noise during the day. Itโs very quiet at night.
