This cottage was great! Chris and Lynn were great hosts as well, they really went the extra mile to make it a good experience. My wife and I took our two kids under 5 and it was perfect. Had privacy, that up north feeling, but access to a pool way better than any hotel and was only 15 minutes from Gaylord. We would absolutely stay again.

Cute and cozy getaway.

Highly recommend this place. It was a cute and cozy cabin with comfortable amenities. We went in the beginning of March and there was still a lot of snow, there is a really nice firepit area we wish we could have used. We saw owl and about 20-30 turkeys. Very quiet and peaceful area. The kitchen had everything we needed for meals. Overall, very clean and we would enjoy staying there again!
