Expert Reply:
A dual stage regulator like the MB Sturgis Vertical Regulator # 108220 can indeed be used to connect to a portable propane tank with a Type 1 hose like # 100473-12. This will allow the portable tank to power the small appliances in your cottage. You will just need to determine what kind of fittings you have in the cottage for the needed hose to run from the regulator.
