Very clean and great view of the lake!!

This was a brief stay in mid-March, however, this was a very nice place and would be great in the warmer months. It has a great view of the lake and would be a wonderful place for an extended stay.

Lake refuge

We loved the view of the lake and the use of pontoon rental. Our first day was quite chilly , but we managed to get the heating unit up and running. Was just the right size for the two of us to relax. The location was tricky to find at first but make sure to follow map instructions for main as there is no street sign and is for sure a steep hill right down to the water.Would like to suggest steps to get onto the deck as this is a climp up if you are short.We would like to rent a few cottages in the future for family trip next time.
