Peaceful and Rustic Getaway

Matthew was a great host. He was very responsive and very accommodating. The cottage is exactly as advertised. We enjoyed it's rustic maturity. We did pretty well fishing and caught several pike. The lake was very pretty and warm, which was surprising given its depth. We enjoyed the porch every morning doing crafts and playing games, and enjoyed bonfires every night. **Note - the last place to buy wood and ice on the way in is a bit far away, so load up before you go!

Why they chose this property

This is my family's cottage where I spent my summers growing up as a kid. Now that my family is older, we are opening it up to renters so that it can still be loved and appreciated.
