Fishing
All as advertised, very clean, modern and well stocked residence. Only and I repeat only thing that could have been better was more accesses to the river frontage to fish. Advertised as 1/3 mile (+/-) frontage but so over grown to waters edge only 50/75 ft could be accessed. And although certainly not anyone’s fault but river never flowed slow enough enter the river to fish anyway in the 2nd week of July

Great attention to detail
As a family of 3 couples, the property filled all our needs. Very nice and clean inside. The attention to detail and obvious love of fishing saved the day! Since the river was flowing too fast for fishing, a guidebook on area lakes was thoroughly studied and 3 remote lakes were hiked into with success. Had that simple item not been included in the welcome basket, our trip likely would not have been as enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again (maybe after spring thaw is over next time)!

3rd time and still a charm
This is our 3rd time staying at Blue Bottle and it just doesn’t disappoint. The house is clean and nicely decorated. Plenty of room to spread out and relax. The kitchen was nicely appointed as well. The fishing - well it was awesome and easily accessible. We will be back
