Girls’ get-a-way weekend. The cottage was a great location, and very clean. We had everything we needed in the kitchen. Double beds were a bit small for sharing; queens would have been better. Sofa bed was a bit lumpy as well.

Loves this cozy cottage!
This cozy cottage was perfect for our little family of 3! Check in was a breeze, the host was very responsive to any questions I had, and I loved all the little homey touches- especially the throw pillows and blankets. We really enjoyed being able to explore the Territory and have access to the amenities!
