  • Great spot!

    5/5

    Loved being right on the lake, and the trampoline was a hit with the kids, even in the snow! We would stay at this house again!

  • Great sisters weekend

    5/5

    Wonderful place to relax and enjoy the weekend for my four sisters and I. The house was stocked with everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable. The lake was beautiful and we enjoyed a wonderful fire in the pit. The water lilies made fishing from the dock a bit challenging, but we did manage to catch some bluegill.

    Overall a great experience.

  • Wonderful family memories made

    5/5

    We were in town for a family reunion and chose to stay at this cottage. It exceeded expectations. My kids (3 & 5) had the best time and are still talking about it 3 weeks later. The house was stocked with everything we needed to thoroughly enjoy the water. Inside there were toys and games. It was very clean. We hope to come back some day!

  • Amazing lake house

    5/5

    This place was PERFECT for all of my lake house dreams. The pictures do not do this backyard justice. Plenty of outdoor activities and very kid friendly. (Love that they supplied life vests)
