Nice stay at the property. Beautiful property. Really enjoyed the view from the dock. If I had to change anything it would be to add on bedroom door for little more privacy feeling.

Very clean and easy stay. Very nice for a couples getaway. The dock and lake were just gorgeous to hang out, tan, and swim in. Easy parking and check in/out. We had a blast for the price we paid and just enough privacy for the two of us! We had access to Roku tv as well to watch movies, full kitchen for cooking, and laundry. Loved it!

Excellent couples vacation

The cottage was perfect for our vacation. The pier was nice to seat out on and have a day or lay out and get some sun. It was quiet and cozy. I would recommend it to anyone. The house had pretty everything you needed.I would recommend Two trees tavern not that far from the cottage for good food and very friendly people!

This was a nice peaceful getaway with a nice view of cranes in the day and moonlight glistening by night on the lake, with Lineburgers steak house close by! Everything was homey and cute and it was in a safe neighborhood with friendly neighbors and host.

Lacrosse trip

The cottage was everything it was represented to be. The host was very pleasant and eager to make out trip comfortable. The boat dock was a great place to relax and watch the boats and jet skis run up and down the lake.

From out of state for a wedding weekend

Despite the heat and humidity, husband caught a few catfish, a bass, and some bluegills off the floating dock. The little home was perfect. Clean and tidy. A most comfy bed. Scott was helpful and accommodating. Would definitely stay there again.
