Fantastic July 4th stay

Excellent location easily accessible by boat or car. Sara was very communicative and helpful whenever we had a question. The cottage was clean and the AC was kicking. Neighbors are friendly and we really loved the lake. This was our first time on Sylvan and we will absolutely be back.

We had a lovely stay here. Our group consisted of 2 couples away for the holiday weekend. We spent the majority of our time while at the cottage in the screened in porch which was perfect. Sara was a lovely host and was very communicative. We would most definitely stay here again.

Perfect little lake house

We enjoyed our quick stay for a concert at Sylvan Cellars. Enjoyed being right on the lake and using the kayaks to explore. The screen porch was the perfect place to sit in the evening and mornings. Will be back again.

Beautiful lake home

I stayed here with my 2 sisters and our mother. The house is very cute and in a pretty good location. It was clean and everything was in working order and it had everything we needed. There was plenty of room for us all. We even was able to book it 5 or 6 days before our trip. That was a big relief, we really appreciated it.

Would book again

Spent the weekend. The space is adorable with a wonderful full kitchen. Large main bedroom, and full loft. The futon in the living room folds out. The cabin is spotless and well appointed. The screened in porch makes for some great views and bug free nights. Wood and chairs even provided for the firepit. Very comfortable.

Interior and view…

The cottage has been beautifully remodeled. Loved the view of the lake from the screened in porch. Took advantage of kayaks and was grateful they were there to us. We did not want for anything. Was appreciative of responses from host to my questions! Usually don’t go to same place twice but this cottage, etc has changed my mind!

Another Wonderful Stay

This is the 3rd time we have stayed at one of the two cottages, 2nd time at this "little" cabin. It is plenty roomy enough for the two of us & maybe next time a few grandkids who would love the loft! We really enjoyed sitting on the screened porch for our meals looking out over the lake. It was a short walk to the boat dock. The place is clean & efficient with quality bedding, towels, dishes, appliances, etc. Host is quick to reply and help out in anyway possible. Thank you!
