Beautiful property - great host
This a rustic, yet modern beautiful home. Situated on a quiet, private wooded lot with great views of the lake. Would stay again without hesitation. I have rented many Vrbo properties and Mike was one of the most attentive hosts I have dealt with. Thanks for a great week!

Mix of modern convenience with the charm of a an old log cabin
Great panoramic view of the lake, the property is so private and tastefully landscaped, we have truly enjoyed our stayed. The cottage itself is decorated with plenty of antiques that blends beautifully with the old character of the log cabin. The two wood burning fireplaces were such big hit with the family we had them running all day.

Rustic retreat on large private property
Mike was a great host, quick to respond to questions and very accommodating to our needs with an elderly guest. The cottage is large; we didn’t even use the great room!
