Adorable little place on a beautiful lake. The space was nice and clean and had everything we needed for the weekend. Loved the huge backyard looking on to the lake. The screened in porch in the back was a perfect option to avoid unwanted bugs!

Relaxing and peaceful. Definitely recommend staying here.
Shared a mini vacation with my granddaughters, we loved the cottage! So cute and roomy. The girls were able to end joy kayaking and the swimming for a 5 year old was perfect. The location was perfect for our needs.
Great little Lakeside cottage, clean, comfortable and cute. Everything you need for your vacation. Brand new dock for your boat. Very relaxing and quiet.
We were in need of a place to stay while our son was at Camp Lutherhaven. This quaint cottage was a peaceful place to relax and recharge. It is easily the cleanest VRBO we've stayed in.
We had a great time there this past week, the only thing was the house was very humid and hot when we arrived and took a whole day to finally cool off.Everything else was great, the location and lake access was amazing and the amenities were very nice and fun.
Lovely cottage with a beautiful view and access to the lake. Very clean property and Angie was very accommodating and communicated well. The place was nicely stocked and even had some nice touches for our toddler.

Amazing Getaway!
This was the first time we stayed at this hidden gem! It is on the lake, beautiful and relaxing atmosphere inside and out! Very responsive owner who was easy to work with.Nicely decorated lake house with all the comforts needed for a great stay. Not a lot to do locally, but if you are wanting a place to rest and relax without a lot of running around, this is the place!
A group girlfriends celebrated a milestone birthday and a Cheap Trick concert. This was the perfect place! The house was clean and had everything we needed. The water level was up but we were still able to enjoy the lake. Thank you!
Our stay was amazing. Easy to find. Quiet neighborhood. Everything you ever need. Beautiful views of the lake and sunsets. We want to come back in the summer time for sure. We loved everything about this place.

Thanksgiving weekend
Communication from host was exceptional! Beyond excellent. Cabin was smaller than it looked in the pics, but everything was wonderful.
Great lakefront view. Very clean and well stocked property (minus a dishwasher). Fantastic communication with property management/host prior and during the stay. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
Happy with the cottage and location. Layout of cottage was well thought out. Water is up at the lake and looks like it has been for at least a year. Not a problem for us, but a family with kids may find it lacking a beach and easy lake access. We would stay here again.
We enjoyed staying at this cottage on Jones Lake. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking equipment, dishware, cleaning supplies. The rooms were kept a comfortable temperature. My partner and son enjoyed using the kayaks.
I LOVED this place!! The house is cute and nice yard with water front. Its quiet and peaceful sitting on the porch in the morning. The geese come up around 8am to have breakfast. They find their own food. The owner of the house is nice and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay!!
Lovely cottage and great atmosphere. Perfect for a little getaway. However, the water ( sinks, showers, etc.) was unusable. The smell (sulfur rotten egg) was just awful. We couldn’t use the sinks or take showers, without just a horrible smell. If this was fixed, this would be 100% a great stay!

From the owner: "Hi Andrew, thank you for the review, we're so pleased that you enjoyed your overall stay and wanted to let you know that we have since fixed the problem with the water smell. We hope to host you again!!"
The property was perfect for our stay eight men going to a football game (Stay Fri-Sun). Property was so nice many of us said we would rent for our families at some point.
Recommend new stove didn’t heat well. Also recommend reversing fridge doors or door stops so they don’t hit windows.
Very pleased with the property. Water pressure was a little low. Refrigerator door hits glass window if you don’t hold onto it when opening. Was afraid it would break window! Maybe spray interior for insects because had to murder two large black spiders. (legs and body the size of a quarter) Didn’t even get a bite fishing! Neighbor was building something for a couple days, so had some construction noise off and on. Overall a very nice stay. Contact, Angie, was extremely nice and helpful!
