This is such a lovely property right on the lake. We loved the large patio and took advantage of the firebowl in the evenings. We also appreciated being able to have our doggies with us. We also like that it's close to two golf courses we enjoy playing.

Mini vacay

This cottage was super nice, very clean and a perfect little place to get away. It is right on the lake and has a great back patio to just sit and relax while watching the boats. Host was quick and responsive with communication and this place is definitely somewhere to come back to for another visit.

Nice Lakefront

Loved our stay - house was very well stocked and very clean. Lakefront was nice - a bit too much sea weed for our liking, but still swimable. We would definately stay here again.

Had a little issue checking in with key pad but was quickly taken care of. Home is super clean with all amenities that you could ever need, we completely overpacked not realizing everything that they had. The owner was extremely responsive on the one issue we had and was quick to resolve it. Beautiful location and great area would totally rent here again. Best area of the lake in my opinion and super adorable home that is very well kept.

Booked for my partners 40th birthday and we really loved this property and its close proximity to the lake. We are a family that goes fishing as often as possible, so this was a little slice of heaven for us!

On the water !

Stayed for the week. The place was excellent. It had dishwasher, washer and dryer and a water cooler/dispenser for both hot and cold water, very convenient. Right on the water made it so easy to just get up and go, fishing in 5 minutes. The weather was hit and miss but you’ll have that in May. I will definitely book this place again, a few weeks later next year might be a little warmer.

Perfect Fall Getaway!

This was a delightful experience! The property exceeded our expectations. It was well kept, very clean, allowed us to have our two fur babies with us, had a wonderful view of the lake from the patio and living room, and was close to good eating establishments and activities (golf). We DEFINITELY intend to be coming back.

Great place to stay!

This house was everything we needed for a weekend getaway. For an older home, it’s been very well maintained. The location on the lake was perfect, and within walking distance to the store and local restaurants. Plenty of extra amenities and activities are provided. We rented a pontoon from Socks Marina, and to be able to dock the boat right at the house for the weekend was so convenient. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!

Beautiful place with all of the amenities

This place was perfect for us! So cute with so many little extras! Plenty of room and places to sleep. It was very clean and just like described. There were lake toys, travel sizes of anything you might have forgotten, very comfy couch. The living room is perfect to just watch everyone on the water from the couch or dining table. The host was very responsive also when I had questions before and during the stay. We will absolutely stay here again!!
