This cottage was just what we needed to enjoy the lake and the surrounding area. We loved sitting on the porch in the morning with the immaculate view and sitting by the fire pit in the evening. It is so quiet and peaceful. Roger took great care of us.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Roger and his wife are amazing hosts who aim to ensure your visit is enjoyable and comfortable. They even shared a boat ride with my Mother and took her around the lake, which is not something we or her expected. This is a place that we would love to come back to.

Family Getaway

My husband and I and our two 20s daughters and our two small dogs spent a glorious six nights at Kamp James. Roger is the ideal host, friendly and attentive. The kitchen is very well outfitted for cooking! We kayaked several times, and we made excursions around the area (and beyond to Burlington). Thank you Roger for sharing your place with us!

Very comfortable clean nice setup. Extremely convenient to boat launch. Kitchen fully equipped. 4++

We would recommend and definately stay again. I cook a ton and had everything I needed - great knives etc...only thing missing was mixing bowls and casserole dish to make lasagne (we had brought one) Even had pie plates for quiche! Very clean - lots of beach chairs & beach towels. Beds were comfortable. We'd definately come stay again.
