Vacation Home

For decades we have shared our cottage with families that return year after year; taking their favourite weeks through the seasons. Their children and grandchildren spend their summers as we did; swimming in the lake, exploring the woods and racing through meadows. We invite you to come and stay. You will find the quiet space to think, the natural beauty to inspire and as much space to explore as you desire.
