Sunnyside Cottage is nestled between two lakes, on a quiet tree-lined street with peak-a-boo views of both Lake Cadillac and Lake Mitchell.
The cottage itself is a classic brick home with simple lines that reminds one of a Hansel and Gretel-style dwelling. Although it appears small from the outside, there is a grand use of space inside.
From the front of the house, you can hear constant activity on the surrounding lakes, it's like keeping a radio on low volume that ensures peaceful, relaxation.
When you enter the front door, you are immediately welcomed by a large living room with beautiful hardwood floors and a wood burning stove. A snug and cushy sofa sits in the center of the room where stories are shared that result in boisterous laughter. A large, picture window overlooks the back yard, giving you a sense of peace and tranquility.
The kitchen is cozy, with open shelves for ease of use and convenience as we are not meant to spend our days cooking but rather relishing the time with family and friends.
This simple setting offers 3 bedrooms, which comfortably sleeps 8 - 10, with 2 full, clean baths.
Bed linens and towels are provided. If needed, a laundromat is also located within the next block, conveniently located next to a wonderful, local ice cream shop.
