This place is a gem. So many nice touches and smelled wonderful when we walked in. Beautiful view of the lake and the kids had a good time taking a walk down the road. The cottage had everything we needed and more. Fully stocked kitchen with everything needed for cooking. The host, Joe, was very responsive and kind. We had a wonderful stay and hope to be back again.

The kitchen was great, the beds were super soft. The only thing that needs attention is the front door. We could not open the front door. The knob did not work. Other than that, it was great.
