This is a private, rustic and cozy vacation camp that has been partially modernized with an addition containing two bedrooms.

Secluded and also close to Hammond Hill State Forest with many miles of trails for mountain biking, hiking and xc-skiing. The cottage sleeps 4 to 6. We recently upgraded the internet with a fiber connection, and added a propane grill on the back deck.
