Quiet, peaceful, Great Lake view and very,very clean.
Property owner is an awesome person and very willing to answer our questions. The lake is the perfect size for small boating and kayaking. We loved our stay!

August retreat
Lovely old cabin on a quiet, shallow lake. We liked the privacy even though the property manager was right next door. Cabin was well appointed with everything we needed for or 3 night stay. Only minor drawbacks that were not noted in the description were:
* access to the lake - stairway was long and steep, no space on the dock for our boat,
* had to haul luggage, coolers, etc. across ~80 yds of lawn to get to the cabin (and back, of course!)

Fabulous porch!
This cabin has the best screen porch to watch the lake and listen to the loons. Nice clean, well appointed cabin but the porch is the highlight.

Cozy house, beautiful lake!
My teenage son and I had a great time. The stairs to the lake are right outside the front door. The lake is big, clean, and great for paddle boarding. The house was clean, safe and had everything we needed. The water in the shower smells a bit sulfur-y, but the water filter in the kitchen worked wonders. We will be back!

Charming and inviting property
We had a short two night stay at this cottage and enjoyed a very nicely maintained property with all the amenities you could request for a lakeside experience. The owner was very helpful and communicative through the whole process and we could recommend the property to anyone.

Beautiful Cottage
It was a very comfortable, beautiful place to stay. The cottage was very clean and homey.
The cottage was very welcoming and made us feel right at home. The sunsets and sunrise were phenomenal. The most amazing were the two bald eagles that paraded around the cottage; one perched 15 yards away to enjoy his/her morning catch! Would definitely revisit this charming place.
