This rustic cabin is simple but comfortable. Our family of four enjoyed a relaxing week here swimming off the dock, taking the kayaks out on the lake, grilling burgers, watching hummingbirds on the porch, and trying to spot a well-camouflaged toad in the yard.
The property is well maintained, decorated with folksy touches like Smoky the Bear posters and a mounted jackalope head, and stocked with a good mix of kitchen equipment that made it easy for us to cook a variety of meals. There is a ceiling fan in the main room and box fans in each sleeping area. The lake is clear and clean. The porch has a mix of comfortable chairs, including some that are easily portable to the dock. The cottages on the road are close to each other and have a nice neighborly feeling; the real outlier is one cabin near this one that has been abandoned and collapsed.
A few things to know: The cabin is small, but we did not find it cramped. There are five beds in the two bedrooms and loft; the bunks in the second bedroom are ideal for kids but would be tight for adults. The main room's tall ceiling makes everything feel more spacious. The interior walls are bare boards, and sound and light does bleed through them. Most lights in the cabin are lamps with switches on the fixtures—and some of these are placed high enough on the walls that shorter people may find them inconvenient (especially in the bathroom). The shower stall is tight and the oven is small. (We loved the toaster oven, though!) The small kitchen table is positioned where only a couple of diners can sit, but it can be moved to accommodate more. We had brought a folding card table with us, and there was plenty of space to set that up as a dining table. Be advised that Verizon mobile service was almost inaccessible from the cabin, although we could reliably get a connection at the dock. Google Maps also got us a little bit lost our first time there, probably because it wasn't quite sure where we were!
The cabin was very clean and well-tended when we arrived. It is in the woods, however, and the second day of our trip we found that mice had nibbled at fruit we had left out in a bowl overnight. When we made sure to keep all food stored away overnight, we saw little evidence of mice.
The owners were very gracious hosts and we really enjoyed our stay.
