Fernald Cottages are a delightful departure from the ordinary. More than cottages, they are spacious homes complete with all the amenities you desire for a truely carefree vacation. Each is unique in design, decor and settings, and offers a comfortable home base for your daily activities.
Why spend your vacation in a confining hotel room when you can have a "home
of your own". A home with room to entertain, to dine in privacy, and to stretch
out and enjoy your vacation. Spend evenings on your private deck overlooking the
water and your days sunbathing on your secluded beach. Privacy, comfort and
spaciousness are but three ways to describe Fernald Cottages.
