Frustrated
The “cottage” ended up being a trailer. Not a mobile home but a trailer. It was on a lake and that was pretty. The key, yes they are are still stuck in 1990 and used a physical key, well it would get stuck in the door. It took all my might to get it out. Not all the blinds worked. The water smelled. There was only one bathroom and the door would not stay closed.

Great stay!!
Amazing property with the absolute best views on the lake. The home had everything we needed and then some. Owners were awesome and made sure our stay was good. Lake was gorgeous and unbelievably clear. My teenage boys even managed to catch some nice walleye and pike! We will definitely be coming back!

Nice place
We had an issue with the thermostat but the property manager never replied to my text or phone call. When we woke up it was in the 50s inside. It's an older place. It was clean, adequate for one night.

Beautiful views & fun lake activities
This is a simple home that sits with beautiful lake views in a quiet part of the lake. We enjoyed taking the kayaks out on the lake, as well as family time inside & outside in all of the spaces available for people to gather. The owners were extremely helpful and kind. It was a relaxing and fun three days for my family.
