Paul and his his family were a quiet and respectful family who respected all house rules and left the cottage clean. They respected the property while on vacation. We would definitely rent to them again.
Thanks Glynnis
Had an amazing stay at the Boathouse over the long weekend. The dock and view of the lake was amazing! The owner was very easy to communicate with throughout our stay. Would definitely book here again!
This cottage was clean and cozy, had all the basics and was perfect for what I was looking for.
The Lake is clean and lovely. The area is semi secluded and beautiful.
We've already booked again for next year!

William and his family were wonderful guests. They were respectful and left the cottage clean and tidy upon departure and respected all house rules. We really enjoyed hosting your family. We hope you rent again from us next year.
Glynnis
The owners are very friendly and helpful. We brought our boat and needed to launch it from the boat ramp on the other side of the lake. The owner met us in town, led the way to the boat ramp, helped us launch our boat, then led the way to the boathouse so I wouldn’t get lost! Easy to contact the owners for any issues or concerns, which were quickly resolved.
