The Pine Squirrel
The Bearded Dogg (connected the Spud Warehouse, a go-to shopping spot for some interesting and unique knick-knacks)

This house was a perfect place for a family weekend… Otsego Lake is gorgeous. We were able to see beautiful sunsets every night from the property.Plenty of room in the kitchen to cook for the family… family room was big enough for everybody to have a place to sit when we were not out playing in the water.My grandkids (3 and 5) were able to walk safely into the water… Very sandy bottom. They were able to walk out quite a long distance. We had a floating lily pad, and tied it to the dock… The kids played on that for hours.House was very clean and had a great breeze coming off of the lake… The upstairs master suite is gorgeous. All of the rooms were great.

We had a great time at this rental. The home is spacious and the deck’s proximity to the house and water was great for my elderly mother with mobility issues. Thanks for a great stay!
