TESTIMONIALS

We had a wonderful time away and really enjoyed the cottage. —Michelle S. (Aug 2022)

 

This cottage is beautiful! Lovely bathrooms, fully outfitted kitchen, and spacious decks, as well as plenty of space for four adults (6 would also feel very comfortable, if 3 couples). The location is also delightful with a very quiet dead-end street, quiet bay at the south end of the lake, and beautiful views and sunsets! The owner was very responsive to questions and concerns which was much appreciated! —Casey Batchelor (July 2021)

 

We were really happy with the cottage. Nicely decorated, comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped, the beds were very comfortable, nice bathrooms. Outside, the deck was nicely decorated with comfortable furniture to enjoy the view of the lake and a patio table with seating for 6 with umbrella. Netflix would be a nice idea. The owner thought of everything to make our stay memorable. —Sherry G. (July 2019)
