Becca was great with communication and went out of her way to accommodate us at her cottage. It is rare for such a nice property to allow our fur babies. I hope everyone appreciates her doing this and cleans up thoroughly after their stay. The neighbors were very nice too and made us feel welcome. Can't say enough good about this property and the owner. We'll be back again.
Excellent place to stay was better than pictures, bonus neighbors were nice and friendly, lake was full of fish, nice well maintained swimming area across from buddies restaurant. Host was awesome although we never saw her she was quick to respond and very accommodating thanks for the memories see you next year

Thanks, Jennifer. We would love to host you again any time. I’m glad you and your family had a wonderful time making memories. That’s what it’s all about, right there!
The property was just what we were looking for. A quiet place to enjoy fishing, relaxing and places nearby within walking distance. The each, a local bar with a bowling alley, Dairy Queen, gas sttion and party store all within a relatively short walk. Neighbors were friendly and a plaesure to visit with.
The house was clean, well furnished, and the host was prompt in responding to any questions we had. Overall an A+ visit.

Thanks Phillip. We appreciate you taking great care of the place while you were there, and will happily rent to your family again. We're so glad you enjoyed the cottage as much as we do, and you're right....the neighbors are so friendly and wonderful!
This perfect was the perfect place for us (two adults and one dog) to stay while being in town for a wedding, especially since we traveled from out of state. The host was very responsive to messages prior to and during our stay. The cottage was exactly as listed and shown in pictures. It was clean and cute. The next time we are in town, we hope to stay here again. If you are looking for a clean place to stay on the lake with opportunities for fishing and other water activities this place is perfect!

Thanks, Danielle! We’re glad our place worked out well for your stay, and thanks for being an immaculate guest!
We came as a family, my husband and I and seven adult kids. There truly was room for everybody to sleep. The living room was pretty spacious and we were all able to hang out there when we wanted to. The dining room table has several leaves in it that you can put in to make quite large. The kitchen had pretty much everything we needed and still had lots of room for us to store the food we purchased for our stay. When we couldn’t find cutting boards, Becca quickly made sure we got some. We also rented the pontoon for the five days we were there, it was so nice to have that available the whole time. We also were able to fish right off the dock and got several large mouth bass off the dock and throughout the lake. The backyard is flat, unlike lots of yards by a lake. Since it was flat, we were able to play spike ball and Kan jam in the yard. We were able to bring our dog, which worked out great. We had to reach out to Becca for a few things and she is very prompt in responding and in taking care of any concerns. We would definitely recommend this cottage.
