Franklin Roosevelt's Summer Home

There has been some mention recently about Campobello Island and Franklin Delano Roosevelt's "cottage" located there; so here's a couple of shots of what it looks like.
(New Brunswick Province, Canada) ...
(Thanks Wikipedia, for more information about this place than I think I ever wanted to know.)

No, you and I would probably call it a small mansion/estate house. But Roosevelt's parents, especially his mother, were immensely rich, with a palatial mansion north of New York City and posh townhouses there ... so to them, it was probably a "cottage". And I use the term certainly tongue-in-cheek.
