Cozy Cottage
5/5 My family of six had a great time at this quiet little cottage. There was plenty of sleeping space for our family, lots of outdoor toys, and firewood provided for the campfire. We caught plenty of bluegill off of the dock and really enjoyed the water toys, like the paddle board. Our kids range in age from 4-14 and their favorite part of the cabin was the awesome in-ground trampoline. We would definitely recommend and stay here again!

Great quick weekend staycation!
5/5 Family quick weekend reconnect with 4 adult kids! Great clean cottage with beautiful property and lake access. Plenty of water “toys” even for adults. The plastic axe throwing was a hit, and can’t say enough about that inground trampoline!! Adult kids reliving their youth! Nicest neighbor to the south! Perfect accommodations!!

Homey Lakefront Escape
5/5 We had a wonderful time, the cottage is cute, clean and there was plenty of room. It's an open concept layout, so when family came over to visit there was space of everyone. Back yard is big with the inground trampoline. Lake is beautiful, unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate, so we didn't get out on the lake. Definitely will come back again!
