Very clean, great location. Shower was a bit small for the larger broad shouldered men, but got the job done. Few little hiccups there was only 2 paddles for 4 kayaks so we could not all go out at same time. There was no sceubber for the diahes and the garbage disposal was nit working properly. Overall good experience. Easy check in and out. Wiah the check out time was later felt a bit rushed in the morning. Would love to enjoy the lake with a cup of coffee ine last time.

We had an amazing time during our stay. The cottage is exactly how it is displayed in the photos with added touches for a cozy cottage vibe. The kitchen was fully stocked and there were plenty of water toys. We used the kayaks, paddle board and fished off of the dock. We didn’t want our vacation to end. The shower is a bit small but we made do. It’s definitely not a deal breaker.Overall great place, location & host!We love this area.
