Great cottage

This cottage is outstanding, especially for a family. The hot tub, beach, dock, kayaks, canoe and swim raft are steps away from the house- which is in a quiet and secluded neighborhood. The 2.3 mile walking trail is perfect for kids and dogs. We keep coming back and it gets better every time!

Wonderful Lake House!

House sits right on the water with excellent views from the porch and main living area. The house was fully stocked with all the essentials as well as many toys (hot rub, canoe, kayak, fire pit, etc.) The owner was very responsive and really knows how to manage rental properties. We fully recommend this VRBO property and will likely come back next year.

This is our 2nd stay at this property, and we will be going back! The host is very accommodating and responds quickly. This home has absolutely everything you will need for a comfortable and wonderful vacation stay, from the amenities to the location - you can't go wrong. This property is in great condition and it is very obvious that the Host takes great care of the property. It is also impressive that he took the time to prepare a "House Book" that outlines in detail everything that you need to know about the home and what it has to offer and where to find it and how to use it, local attractions, activities and mileage. He has thought of it all!

What a gem! My family and I stayed here over Labor Day weekend, and it was such a treat. I’m a runner, and it was great to be able to use the nearby trail to get my runs in on quiet side roads; the grandparents enjoyed taking out the kayaks; fishing was super easy right off the dock, as well as helpful stairs for getting right into the water. We all enjoyed swimming out to the nearby floating dock and playing the popular and plentiful board games in the cozy living room at night.A highlight for everyone was the hot tub! Soaking in the tub overlooking the beautiful lake was so easy and relaxing. The yard was also spacious enough for corn hole and other lawn games with plenty of seats for spectators and a few lounge chairs for those who enjoy laying out in the sun. The outdoor speakers were amazing and set the mood for high-energy games during the day and relaxing around the outdoor fire pit at night.We couldn’t ask for a more gracious, communicative, and friendly host! The house was well stocked with the basics and we were very appreciative of all the outdoor seating and grill for easy grill nights with the fam. An extra bonus was the chocolates so thoughtfully placed on everyone’s pillows on our arrival! Thank you, Jamie!

We had a fantastic experience at this property! The space was perfect for our group of eight, offering plenty of room for everyone and ample parking. While the decor is rustic, the home was very clean, and it was clear the host has thought of every detail. We especially appreciated the comprehensive instruction binder, which explained how to use everything and even helped us locate items like the corkscrew effortlessly. The check-in and check-out processes were seamless and hassle-free. To make an already great stay even better, we have a few small suggestions: adding mattress pads to the bunk beds would enhance comfort, as they were quite firm. Additionally, replacing a few of the thinner pillows or encouraging guests to bring their own could improve sleep quality. Finally, introducing some colorful accents—such as brighter blankets, towels, or decor—could liven up the space, as the current palette is heavily brown.Overall, we highly recommend this home and would love to stay again!
