The view alone is worth 5 stars, but the cottage and its decor also contributes to an airy and relaxing environment. The kitchen had everything we needed, the bed was comfortable, and there are lamps to read by. No doubt because it's the end of the season, there were some minor fixes to be made (broken shade cord, damaged shelf in fridge, etc.) but overall, this was the absolute best vacation rental we have ever had. Highly recommend.
