This is a beautiful cottage and it is very well kept and clean. Our stay was in early spring during cold weather and the furnace was more than up to the task. Access to the beach is across an unbusy road, and the view of the beach and bay was very nice. Lots of amenities as described in the write-up, and everything was tip-top shape. We had a very relaxing long weekend in spite of less than ideal weather. I'm sure this property is wonderful in the spring, summer, and fall. I highly recommend this property, and will be looking to come back again.

The host was welcoming and the home and amenities were in good shape. The Home was spacious, comfortable and we especially enjoyed the hot tub on the back deck. We were unable to get the gas fireplace to work and it would have been helpful to have a clear list of items to complete before we checked out of the property.

Response from VrboOwner on 4 Mar 2026
I apologize for the fireplace being a manual appliance. It was running before your arrival and started after check out. The little sticker labels and my instructions can be frustrating to restart when the pilot is turned off accidentally. It may need to be upgraded in the future. The check out list maybe too short to recognize. The list is this: Start dishwasher if needed Start washer with no more than 6 towels. After looking into this I now see other listings ask for more. Things that should be added: Close windows Turn off water faucets Ensure stove is not on Refrigerator doors closed Turn off lights Cover hot tub Return kayaks and SUP'S, paddles and life vests properly Check all rooms, closets, cabinets and drawers for personal items Lock doors Text that check out is complete and house is ready for cleaning. I'm sorry your experience failed to fulfill the expectations offered from the listing pictures and description. I will pay for it thru a very unforgiving algorithm Lol. I hope to receive constructive feedback thru DM and accept suggestions as my "to do" list.

The location was perfect. It was too cold for water activities, but having campfires on the beach was amazing! The host was extremely nice and accommodating, he even left flowers for us after discovering we were there on our mini-honeymoon. Will definitely keep this spot in mind for future trips!

Our third year here and love it more each time. The amenities, the thoughtful stocking of items at the house that make it more comfortable and accommodating, and the continuous upgrades are always so appreciated. It’s our home away from home and you simply can’t beat the beach area at this property!!

The place was clean and nice. The owners live in part of the house but we're not there while we were (and the areas are separate). The hot tub was okay and I didnt try the sauna long (could figure it out). The lake view was absolutely amazing and very relaxing. Lots of outdoor amenities on the property. I really enjoyed the stay.
