Had a wonderful stay. The cabin was clean and cozy. Had a small view of the lake. M31 is right there so did hear a lot of traffic noise. But it didn’t bother me. It’s within walking distance to a very nice restaurant and the house of pies. I would definitely stay again. It was just the right size for me. I’m pretty sure I was the only person at the property. So it was very quiet. Wished I could have sat on the deck more but it was really hot and there was no shade. But I totally enjoyed my stay.

We had amazing time at this cabin. It was small but perfect for what we wanted. The bed was super comfortable. We will return.

Nice tiny cabin for two. Very small shower but otherwise a well-kept cabin.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Aug 2024
We enjoyed our stay fairly well. The bed was a double bed. I can’t remember what the adverisement said but a double bed is a lot smaller than most couples are used to sleeping on. I had expected a queen. It was also very squishy and up against the wall so it made it hard to get in and out and the squishy nature made you sink into it. Not great. The other problem was that the property is listed as being three houses off a lake, which it is, but failed to mention its located on a two lane highway that has a surprising amount of traffic all night long that actually shakes the cottage. All in all we tried to make the most of it but it was not and ideal getaway location.
