Idlewild Resort

There was no heated pool as stated in the amenities. The shower was very tiny, there was a big gap under the door and at the top of the door. We were thankful that the mosquitos weren't out, because the cabin would have been full of them. The stove and oven had to be lit with a match, which would have been fine, but there were not instructions in regard to that, nor were there any matches. Just an overall poor choice of places to stay.

It was a perfect week at the lake! The cottage was cute and in a wonderful location. We will be back

Janet and family are wonderful owners and shared exciting upcoming enhancements for their guests. The cottages and surroundings provided us with much needed rest and relaxation.

No Lake

Roughing it is more like it. Shower is something else.
