Beautiful and secluded property with a huge deck overlooking the lake. The group I took up all thoroughly enjoyed staying here for a few days. The deck was great to hang out on in the sun along with the shade the trees provided. Swimming is a little grassy but the water is warm and great for going out on the kayaks or floating. Firepit and BBQ were great. As the host notes, check the propane when you get there for the BBQ. Rooms were great for what we needed, we had seven adults sleep there no problem. Would definitely book again!

The cottage was exactly as described in the ad and absolutely perfect for our week of golfing, playing cards, eating well, and enjoying a few drinks out on the deck. We had a bit of trouble with the Wi-Fi connection at first, but our host sorted it out in short order. If you're looking for a private getaway in a rustic but well-equipped cottage, this is the place. It was a true cottage country experience for my group of old high school friends.

Lovely family cottage. Amazing view of the lake from the huge deck (and from the main living area of the cottage). Great water for swimming off the end of the dock. The kitchen and main living area are well equipped. Would go back!

Many items needed maintenance. This was disappointing for the price we paid.
