Our cottage is been our “go to place “for over 50 years. It has undergone 3 renovations and the last being done in 2018. It is on approx 2.95 acres all on the water. There are2 beaches -a sandy beach with a swim raft and a rocky beach with a fire pit. The driveway is linked to a second driveway that is gated . That driveway passes the two gated gardens - a Berry Garden and a vegetable garden and brings one to the rocky beach with the fire pit.
