The Murphy's were kind, caring, gracious, and available. They responded quickly to any questions we might have had. They were excellent hosts. The cottage was very clean and tidy. It exceeded our expectations for cleanliness. The beds were very comfortable, and the bedding was fresh and clean. Plenty of towels were provided and the bathrooms were sparkling clean. The kitchen included two full size refrigerators, plenty of room for all our goodies. The family room was a great place to relax after our bonfires or on a rainy day. The outside was beautiful. The deck was large with plenty of space to gather for outdoor meals. The lake is clean and beautiful. The Murphy's have supplied any water toy you could imagine. We rented the pontoon. We used it a number of times to cruise the lake and get another perspective of its beauty. We used the fire pit nightly and enjoyed the S'more provided by the Murphy's. Finally, the neighbors on both sides of the cottage were wonderful. They offered their assistance with any need we might have had. In closing, if your dates are available, book this special place! You will not be disappointed. You will absolutely love the Murphy Cottage!
