Our family group of 7 loved our stay at Berry Cottage. Itā€™s a little bit cozy upstairs - some will have to walk through another bedroom to get to theirs, or to get to a bathroom. But the location is amazing, itā€™s very quiet, the beds are really comfortable and the cottage is clean, well loved ā€” but not overly precious like some ā€” and nicely equipped. Management folks are very helpful and responsive. The dock and beach are a huge plus for swimming and boating.

The property could use a notebook with local information like passwords to WiFi and codes to outbuilding. Aside from this it was great.
