Relaxing and enjoyable
Thank you for sharing your beautiful cottage with us! The open layout was perfect and the king bed was comfortable. The updated bathroom was nice too. The sunsets were amazing as we relaxed by the bon-fire. The lake was clean and provided us with a fresh catch of the day and excellent swimming.

Amazing Sunsets!
We LOVED it here! Very comfy and cozy, plenty of space, we did not need anything extra besides our food and drinks. Wood was easy to find in town along with a decent sized grocery store. The stairs are really not that bad. They are worth the easy water access and lower deck view of the lake, which is pretty big and has a long built-in bench. It’s 5 flights of stairs to the lower deck that are not steep and one more to the water. We definitely plan to boom again next Summer!

Cozy, clean, private cottage on the bluff.
The cottage was cozy and clean, located atop the bluff on the sunset side of the lake. Plenty of space for six adults and three vehicles. Worth noting: the descent to the lake includes pavers in the yard that are loose and uneven. The steps (81) include several wobbly flights of wooden steps; the bottom flight to the dock is narrower than the others, and doesn’t have handrails. The dock is short and narrow, and doesn’t have uprights tall enough to use as handholds. The lake bottom is clear and sandy, but also rocky. Water sandals that won’t slide around/off your feet are necessary. *The photos really don’t convey enough information about the stairs, nor do they show the stepping stones in the yard.
