Cute Family Friendly Cottage
Very family and kid friendly. Good location and walking distance to lake, restaurants, coffee shop and playground. The cottage itself is very cute and was spacious for our group (4 adults + baby). We’d go back!

Blue Cottage had everything we needed. Located on a quiet street just a quick walk to restaurants and shops. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking at home. Super comfy beds. The house was extremely clean and well maintained. Jason, the host was easy to work with and very quick to respond with any questions.
