Location was perfect for us. Atv/orv trails right up the street. Owner draws a map on how to get to the trails and sends it to you. We stayed late fall and it was chilly outside but the cabin was warm throughout. Kitchen had everything for cooking and was clean and functional. A nice easy flight of steps to the water and the outside was well stocked with a grill, fire pit and firewood. Nice cottage with a pretty large driveway to park trailers and toys in.

Booked the rental for an extended weekend ice fishing trip with my wife, kids, and dad. The cabin was clean and spacious. It had everything we needed for our group. Plenty of bed, space and dining space. The location overlooking the lake is beautiful. It is quite steep to get down to the lake, which was a little challenging for my elderly father. But there is a nice handrail and cement steps, which were helpful. Fishing was good a reasonable walk from the shore. The owner was very responsive with any questions. The fireplace was nice and there was even enough wood provided to have a fire. For three adults and three small children it was absolutely perfect, and price was fair. Would book again.

This cabin is an absolute hidden gem. The actual cabin is very spacious, with plenty of room, for your family. Decor is fabulous! Fully stocked with all the amenities of home. But the best part of the property, is definitely the back yard and lake. We spent our time on the water and had a great weekend. I would come back here a million more times! Beautiful place!! Our host Lacey, was very attentive. A great host!

We loved our time here and wish we had planned for a longer stay! The cottage is quiet and clean. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook all of our meals. Amazing views of the lake. We especially loved evening fires in the fire pit and morning coffee on the huge screened porch. The kids swam and fished right off the dock all day every day. We were thankful for 4 wheel drive as it’s a couple miles on some pretty narrow and bumpy dirt roads but that also added to the charm. We will definitely be back!
