I got this cottage as a 2 night stay for a friend after her wedding! They had the most amazing time! They went paddle boarding on the lake! They loved it so much they are thinking on going back!

Host was very accommodating and friendly. The house was right on the lake. Beautiful view. Fishing was great. Lots of stairs from parking space to house. Additional to water. It was fine for my husband and I but would be difficult for older people. Suggested to owner more lights down by water. She was very receptive to adding. Overall great time!!
