The cottage has a well equipped kitchen, large living room with wifi, TV, DVR, & radio, and a dining room, with a water view that is hard to look away from. Outside, the deck overlooking the water, is perfectly situated for soaking in the sun's rays and watching the resident loons fishing, seals frolicking, and eagles soaring during the day, and celebrating the setting of the sun at day's end.
