Cute cottage
A really cute, clean, and comfortable cottage. The decor and thoughtful little extras were awesome. There were 5 of us, and we were comfortable. They offer nostalgic games for family play, which we loved. I deducted a star only because there is not a king size bed as stated, and you really can't walk to the beach without crossing US 23, which I didn't want to try with kids. The GPS showed cottage on east side of road, it is on the west.

Daughter’s first trip
This was our daughter’s first trip and we had such a great time. The rooms were big enough for her pack and play, everything was close and the house was great. Just enough room for my family of 3.

Decent except dirty bath and bugs
The space worked for us. The firepit was great and on-site laundry. It’s a tight space , but we were at the lake mostly.
Downers were the shower liner was moldy and gross. Random big ants in the kitchen, beetles, and spiders elsewhere. Needs to be sprayed for bugs!
