Beautiful lakeside apartment

We were only able to enjoy Fife lake for a short time but it was beyond our expectations. Our 2nd floor apartment overlooked the lake, the place was spotless and had my father-in-law was thrilled with his king bed! My only suggestion is that the apartment have a bit more in the kitchen--a few bags of herbal tea, salt, small bottle of oil. some basic spices etc. helps a lot to have those things if you want to do a bit of cooking.
