Absolutely loved the cottage. It was beautifully decorated, well stocked with everything that you might need, and cupboards were neatly labeled so everything was so easy to find! The space didn't seem small at all and perfectly accommodated our large family of seven. The kids loved the games and activities available in their room. We didn't have time to enjoy the back yard, but it looked very nice with the fire pit and furniture/hammock. Road noise from the main road was a bit noisy when outside, but not noticible at all indoors. Aside from that, the neighborhood is nice with just a short walk to the lake and playground.
