Many Cottage Amenities:
We have a fully-equipped kitchen (including refrigerator/freezer with ice maker, cook top, oven, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker and other small appliances, cooking utensils, and kitchen towels) which opens to both the dining room and very large living room. The living room overlooks the lake and has a TV (cable) and DVD/VCR, as well as a wood-burning fireplace and wet bar. The bonus room, with its sofa, TV (cable), DVD/VCR, and 9-in-1 game table, means there is always something to do, even if the weather doesn't cooperate. Use our book, game, puzzle, video, and DVD collections, or bring your own. Our half acre lot provides plenty of space for outdoor games (Bocce anyone?) and gathering around the firepit in the evenings.
