Woodview Lakeside Cottage 🏡🍂
Guests have access to four bedrooms, two full bathrooms, two cozy living rooms (one with a ping pong table), a fully renovated kitchen, a dining room, and lake access through a short, paved path in the backyard. It’s truly a home away from home, equipped for all your needs.
Please note that the basement of the property is not part of the Airbnb guest space and will be occupied by staff from the Woodview General Store. It’s completely separate from the rest of the house, with no shared areas, ensuring full privacy for our guests.
Three of the bedrooms each feature one bed, while the fourth bedroom includes a bunk bed with two double mattresses. The top bunk is best suited for children or lighter adults, with a maximum weight limit of 50 kg. The back living room also has a sofa bed that can be pulled out for use. Extra pillows and blankets will be provided. With a total of six beds, the cottage comfortably accommodates your group and ensures everyone has their own space to relax.
Free parking is available in front of the home for 2–3 cars, with additional parking along the path leading to the lake.
