About this cottage rental
The Bird's Nest is owned and operated by the owners of Shalestone Vineyards. Located in a community lake shore neighborhood just below the vineyard.
The deep ravine and active stream on the north side provides privacy and a soothing sound. There is a rental across the ravine so it's not completely isolated as to sound. On the south side of the cottage there is a family home and they are very respectful as to being noisy neighbors. Generally the neighborhood is quite during the week and a little more active on weekends at certain times of the year. If your looking for complete isolation this isn't the place for you.
This renovated cottage has a cathedral ceiling spanned by a large cherry log and accented with Stag Horn Sumac branches. All the woodworking is made from trees harvested from the property, (red cedar and white oak)
The kitchen cabinets are made from wine barrels.
The queen size bed has a 3' memory foam top and faces a large window overlooking the lake. Lounge in bed and listen to the lapping waves or catch the morning sunrise on the opposite shore.
A large deck runs along the entire lake side of the cottage and has a partial roof for sun/rain protection and is private from the cottages on either side.
The 75 feet of beach is shared with the owners as is the. 60 ft dock.
1 minute walk down the stairs to the beach or drive down for unloading kayaks, coolers or a small boat trailer. We highly suggest that guests have “AWD or 4WD” if driving down to the beach. Fire pit, depending on the supply and the season there is wood but it’s best to bring your own wood. It can also be purchased from several roadside stands Umbrella and chairs provided. RESPECTING OUR GUEST PRIVACY, owners would not be using the beach in the evening with the exception of loading or returning their boat to the lift.
Small pets are acceptable, but only with owners approval. $100 fee for cleaning and waste removal. Non refundable.
Reservations made using foreign currency, renter is responsible for exchange fee and must notify owner before making deposit.

Location and view are great. Cozy cottage and private dock were wonderful for a relaxing weekend. However, upon arrival there were many live stink bugs, woodland roaches and ants that needed to be cleaned up. They were mostly hiding in the blinds of the sliding door and once we figured that out we got all of them. I understand having occasional bugs in a wooded area but this seemed more like the cabin hadn't been cleaned prior to our arrival because the rest of our stay we didn't see any bugs. The bedroom and bathroom seemed reasonably clean, just dusty.
