Review Score:   10
Summary: Exceptional grounds. Dock area, with 6 kayaks and a paddle board available, was so much fun! Home was clean and well kept. It does appear to be a cottage that has been expanded, but everything has been very thoughtfully and tastefully done. The main floor master bedroom and suite are exceptionally nice. The only suggestion that i would have would be to update the mattresses and some of the kitchen items.
