It was wonderful! Beautiful view. The only complaint we have is that it has a musty smell. We could only think it was because the cottage is old. Would definitely stay again!

Very nice place along the lake to unwind and relax. Any inquiries were promptly answered. The place was very clean and dog friendly - our dog had a great time running around the yard and hanging out by the bonfire. The beds were not the most comfortable but other than that the experience was great. If you enjoy looking at the stars, the view at night was top notch compared to what we're used to seeing back home.

Great Place with a Great View and Ambience

Three ladies enjoyed four days at this property which was very peaceful and relaxing. Loved sitting down by the lake, roasting marshmellows and hotdogs with the bonfire, while watching the geese, ducks, and chippies. The house has lots of room with plenty of places for everyone to gather together. Will definitely stay here again!

a peaceful, beautiful cabin with a gorgeous lake front setting. This is a very old cabin that has been updated/renovated but done so that the old fashioned feeling is still present. Would love the opportunity to stay here again!

Yellow claw foot tub?

If you really like a rustic visit, this house is great. Our adult children found it an adventure. I didn’t have to climb the steep steps but that tub in downstairs bath felt like standing up in a rowboat. Not because it moved but since it wasn’t flat inside, it felt like it.

Thank you for your review. We're glad to hear your family enjoyed the rustic charm of the home and appreciated the sense of adventure it brought! We understand that the steep steps and the unique design of the downstairs bathtub may not be ideal for everyone. Your feedback is helpful, and we’ll share your comments with the homeowner for future consideration. Thank you for visiting with us. We hope you made wonderful memories during your stay!
