We love this cottage. We've now stayed three times! We have been very happy with how open the kitchen/dining area is, the light that comes in, the storage, the ratio of bedrooms to baths. It is perfect for our nuclear family. This time, for our family reunion we also rented another home in the same lovely, quiet neighborhood, and the proximity was absolutely perfect. "Our" cottage has a brand new side deck and porch. A couple of things needed attention (a door handle and a wobbly chair), but I was able to text about this, and I'm sure they'll be repaired soon!
