Before you book a waterfront cottage
- Ask what the shoreline is like: sandy beach, rocks, weeds or deep water off the dock. It matters with small children.
- Check which boats, canoes or kayaks you may use, and that there are life jackets in the right sizes.
- Ask whether the waterfront is private or shared with neighbours.
- Bring water shoes and bug spray; June is black fly and mosquito season in much of cottage country.
