Amazing cottage experience

We had an amazing time at this property, it was a beautiful and private cottage! The host Lorrie was so kind and reached out during our stay to ensure that everything was up to par. The cottage was clean and had all the amenities we needed. I would definitely recommend to stay here, we will definitely be booking a stay here again!

Overall it was a great experience. If you don't have an SUV or an All-Wheel Drive vehicle it is a bit difficult because you cannot go down the driveway. The host was awesome. The cottage was clean. The best part was the lake. Be ready against the mosquitoes at night.

Perfect Getaway

We had booked this property as a final getaway before the summer ended and the kids went back to school. The cottage and location turned out to be everything we could have hoped for with amazing access to the water, very private beach area and really nicely done cottage with space to spread out as needed. The property had kayaks, paddle boards and a canoe that we took full advantage of as the cottage is tucked into a cove where the water stayed fairly calm even in decent winds. The owner and property manager where extremely receptive and accommodating making the check in and out very smooth. Would definitely recommend this location and look forward to booking again in the future!
