Beautiful lakeside property!
Beautiful property, right by the waterfront. Fully equipped with everything you would need for cottage stay. Included kayaks, canoes, two firepits. Things to note: need to bring your own bedsheets/towels, or they are available but you will need to laundry. Need to bring trash to a close by garbage dump. Dishes must be washed/dried and placed back. Very spacious and very enjoyable stay, would definitely recommend!

Great but neighbors too close
The neighbors are closer then in the pictures. I was not told or aware of any cameras until already there, I would have like to know that before booking and going. Had a great weekend it's a beautiful vacation spot.

Awesome place to stay, with beautiful views
We enjoyed our time at the cottage immensely! Peaceful, clean and charming! Everything you could want in a vacation! Not sure why the other review complains about the beds, we found the beds to be very comfortable and had a great night sleep. We enjoyed the spots to sit out by the water and had a great time canoeing. We will definitely be regulars!
