Above all our property is new and has many modern amenities. We always say "we want to be near nature, but we don't want to sleep or watch a movie in it". We have all of the luxuries of home: air conditioning, high-speed internet, big screen TV, full kitchen (including dishwasher), wood-burning stove, etc. and because the cottage is new construction, it's perfectly comfortable year-round.
One amazing feature is our screened-in porch, where we spend a lot of our time in the summer.
Finally, in the winter the wood-burning stove is something really special: after spending time outside the stove warms the whole cottage and makes for a very cozy experience!
