The cottage is absolutely amazing! It’s spacious, has the most beautiful view I’ve ever seen and has everything that you need for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation. We have stayed at the cottage numerous times and have made so many memories there with our family.

We had an amazing time during our week long stay at the cottage. Elena the host was a pleasure - she was quick to respond and very helpful. The property itself is beautiful with big open spaces to play games. Our dog had a blast running around out there with our kids. The lake view is gorgeous, with a shallow entry and dock. The cottage is equipped with everything you could possibly need and is very clean. Overall, a wonderful place to stay - we enjoyed ourselves very much and have already rebooked for next summer. A property.

Our family stayed here in July 2025. The photos do not do it justice. Absolutely beautiful !!! The cottage is right on the lake with your own private beach and dock. There is lots of space for kids to play and so much to do. The cottage is very clean and organized. Everything you could need, is there. Very peaceful and serene. We would see deer daily. Elena was great host and very responsive. The only thing that was missing was a motorized fishing boat but my husband did catch pike and bass off the dock. Overall, we had a memorable family vacation and would return.

Relaxing winter vacation
This was our second time here, and although we had lots of stresses getting here, the host was gracious with us checking in 24 hours late. We love the cozy cottage and easy access to the lake and trails for snowmobiling.We have nothing but good things to say about this cottage and the host.

Beautiful getaway!
The property is huge and amazing, being situated on the waterfront, you can walk out on the dock and fish while you watch the sun set. The grounds are big and has ample room for kids and pets to run & play. We had a blast on the trampoline, and after getting our heart rate up, we relaxed in the jacuzzi. The house is large too and fully equipped with everything that a normal home would have. The king bed in the Master bedroom gave us restful sleep after an exciting and fun filled day. Thank you Elena for being the most terrific host and for being so accommodating. My family enjoyed every moment. I would definitely recommend!!

Great week with my family. Lots to do. Easy access to groceries. A bit buggy but that's the only negative. Everything else was fantastic and worked super well.

Girls Vacation
What an amazingly well equipped cottage! Having rented many VRBO places around the world, this is one of the best. The kitchen is very large and has everything you need including, chef knives, a keurig, panini press, and ninja chef blender. The beds are comfortable with decent pillows and linens. So many games, both board and video, for adults and children. The host Elena is very responsive if you have questions.
The property is stunning and we never tired of staring out at the beautiful lake or sitting around a campfire at night. Everyone enjoyed getting out on the kayaks and exploring the lake. The town is close by with excellent restaurants and a beautiful little spa if you are looking for services.
Thank you Elena for renting out such a beautiful property. We will definitely return!

Great place to stay!
My family and I had a wonderful stay at the cottage. The cottage is very clean and modern. The view and the lake are amazing. We appreciated all the extra touches that Elena provided. The kayaks, SUP, and pedal boat were great. My family enjoyed using them on the lake. The hot tub was a great bonus.

Perfect vacation at the lake!
This cottage did not disappoint! It was a wonderful relaxing vacation at the lake. From reading and napping on the hammock, playing on the lake, exploring in the kayaks, paddle boarding and nightly dips in the hot tub, this was the perfect getaway to relax and rejuvenate! Everything we needed was provided and the hosts even left a few treats! I can’t express how pleased I was with the location and everything that was available during our stay! We will definitely stay here again!

Perfect lake getaway
Elena’s property was wonderful and exceeded our expectations! My husband and I were looking for a relaxing lake vacation with our 2 dogs and this was the perfect spot. The home is well-equipped to host larger families.
Things we found exceptional:
- incredibly comfortable mattress and bed linens
- lots of towel sets
- we’ll equipped kitchen with everything we needed to cook, open concept space with beautiful lake views, gas grill that was well maintained
- dock where we could easily pull up with a rented pontoon boat
- large yard where the dogs could play, trees provide privacy from neighbors
- reliable Internet, good satellite television package and smart TVs with all streaming apps
- really comfortable couch in family room that will seat a large group.
Grocery stores and hiking are close by as well.

Best. Week. Ever.
If you are looking to relax, unwind, and spend quality time with your family and friends, this is the place to go. The house is modern and well kept, supplying every amenity one might want or need. Elena, the host, is quick to reply to questions and is very knowledgeable about the area. While we had beautiful weather and spent most of our time paddle boating, paddle boarding, kayaking, and hot tubbing (all supplied), there is plenty to do inside if weather doesn’t cooperate, and the wifi is strong enough for working from “home”. We will definitely be back!
