This was the perfect place for a summer getaway! The house had plenty of room for the two of us, our adult children, and 2 dogs. We greatly appreciated the wall A/C units, as the weather was quite warm while we were there. However, we spent most of our time outside enjoying the water, the views, the fire pit, and the patio. We brought fishing poles - the fishing was great off the end of the dock! If you want to walk into the lake from shore, you probably want some sort of footwear, as it’s a bit rocky right by the edge. However, you don’t need them if you walk in from the steps on the dock, as the bottom is much softer there. Our host, John, was great - very responsive to the couple of questions we had and even mailed us an item we left behind by mistake. Very relaxing getaway cottage on a quiet and peaceful stretch of the lake. Would come back again!
