We enjoyed the location and comfortably relaxed as a group of 6. We were in town for the MDI Half Marathon, and being steps from the finish line was so lovely after finishing. We also enjoyed using the fire pit next to the water and had plenty of amenities to cook a few meals. One note - the two single beds on the sleeping porch are not heated, so keep that in mind for stays later in the season. Christie was super communicative throughout the entire process.

Lovely cottage in a great location. Very clean. Fireplace was great for a cool rainy day we had. The kitchen is well stocked and even has pancake mix and syrup. Only downside was the traffic noise, which interfered with our sleep. The house is right on the road, with 2 of the 3 bedrooms road facing, so 6am-10pm we heard traffic pretty non-stop. If you're a light sleeper this might not be the best place to stay. But if that's not a concerns for you, then go for it - everything else about this rental is great!

Everything was perfect. The host thought of everything. We didn’t need to buy anything except food. She even provided coffee. My only complaint was the marina next-door. It had a docking area but also a separate working area for repairs so was a little noisy on workdays when I wanted to sit by the water and enjoy coffee in the the quiet.

Great location close to lots of trails, the lake and food/ice cream. Host was very responsive and house was well stocked.
