We were delighted to stay at Bill's cottage. The property exceeded our expectations - full of historic charm, yet beautifully maintained and spotless. The yard was larger than it looked in photos, and the sandy swim area was perfect for our kiddos to splash around in. 10 out of 10!

We had a great stay at Bill’s property. The house is beautiful, well-equipped and artistically decorated. The lakefront is really spacious and peaceful and was amazing to have access to. There was a group of 7 of us including 6 adults and an infant and we all had plenty of space.

Lakefront fun

Great 4 night stay.With 3 full baths the house and cottage were perfect for our group. Sandy beach waterfront was awesome for swimming and lounging. Plenty of privacy and space. House had everything we needed. Luckily wasn't hot but all rooms had AC units. Great fishing off the dock too.Bill was very responsive if we had questions. We loved this stay !

Everyone really enjoyed the property. The house has a lot of history and character. It is right on the water with beautiful sunsets. It has lots of amenities to keep you busy, canoe/kayak, fire pit, hammock, sunroom, etc. We were there for the weekend. I wish we had more time. I definitely recommend this property.
