8/10
We had a wonderful week in the cozy Silverwood cottage despite the disappointment of the waterfront which is not suited for swimming but is great for canoes/kayaks (not provided).
McRae and Mara provincial parks are a few mins drive from the cottage. Both offer beaches with clear shallow water to swim in.
The cottage grounds are very spacious and the view is beautiful. There are 3 office waiting room chairs around the fire pit, a picnic table and a white bench by the water but they are covered in bird droppings. The water to the garden hose was turned off so we couldn’t hose off the chairs. It would have been nice to have a couple of lounge chairs to enjoy the view and read a book.
The cottage itself is very nice and the beds are very comfortable but the kitchen is not fully equipped. Be prepared to do dishes after each use or share cutlery (very minimal amount). Overall our family had a wonderful stay!😀
