My family has spent decades making unforgettable memories here. While we still love and use the cottage ourselves, getting everyone together has become more challenging as my children grow into adulthood. We are thrilled to open our family home for your loved ones to enjoy.

Because of this unique design, the entire main floor is highly accessible for wheelchairs and other assisted mobility devices.

Main Floor Living: Step-free access to all rooms located on the main floor. Spacious Design: Extra-wide interior doorways and hallways with an open layout that allows for easy turning radiuses.
