Wonderful delight that is delightfully wonderful
This is a fabulous family-owned place that is "cottage-y" in all the best ways. Charming, quirky, clean, and great location but not too precious or overwrought. Even the distant train whistles were welcome coloratura. Small beds and bedrooms take a bit of getting used to by those of us with king-size sleeping habits but "it's the cottage"!

Torrance Cottage
The cottage was in a very pretty location, with a large and very nice dock. The cottage itself was comfortable and very clean. The beds were comfortable and there was lots of space for us (a group of 6 friends). Communication with the hosts was easy, with quick response times. Overall, a great experience.

Prime location
We had a wonderful, but too short of a stay at this beautiful location. The family owned cottage and two bedroom cabin were older but clean and filled with interesting books, dvds, photos and memorabilia. We almost wanted a rainy day just to spend more time inside. There is a large dock and a great selection of paddle boards, kayaks, canoe, and a peddal boat that were a lot of fun. There is a distant train on the other side of the lake that has a lot of historical significance in opening up the area long ago. But, if you're bothered by the occasional sound of the train I would recommend earplugs. The hosts were wonderful. They greeted us and told us some interesting things about the area and then left us to enjoy the place in solitude.
