Beautiful home. The set up of having 2 bedrooms and bathrooms on the main level (one with walk in shower) and one bedroom and bathroom on the lower level was perfect for my family. The host provided everything all the basics to get us started (paper towels, dishwasher detergent, body wash, shampoo, etc) Great view of the lake. Also, the view of all the stars in the sky very early in the morning was spectacular. Host was very responsive to all needs.

Wonderful Vacation at Keg Creek Cottage

Our family reserved Keg Creek Cottage for a week and loved it so much we reserved again for an additional night. Our host was so gracious when we had a question and she answered so quickly. We had such a great time! When we arrived, the view from the windows were even better than the pictures and The open kitchen included a nice welcoming assortment of snacks of which we enjoyed. There was so much room for us and we enjoyed the Corn Hole game when not on the lake. We would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a relaxing and fun place for the whole family! We will definitely be back!
