Summary: This was a great location for family with a dog if you plan to stay at the cottage your whole stay. Nothing nearby. The fenced in front yard was perfect for our dog and the firepit and kayak's were fun. The cottage was clean and laid out well but the two small rooms with twin beds (with trundles) would be better with another full sized bed and/or two twins. The two negatives I'd point out were being directly next door to a gas station (a bit bothersome) and nowhere nearby to walk your dog as the road is basically on a two-lane highway with little or no shoulder and lots of curves (hard to see oncoming cars). I left messages also before our trip with questions and one during the trip - no response to the first two messages at all and the message during our stay was answered a day after we left the cottage. Not great communication.
