Lovely Lake Cottage
The view of the lake was amazing! Having the kayaks readily available on site was a fantastic perk. We were out on the lake everyday. Bonus that the area is surrounded by state land AND we had great weather!
The layout of the cottage was exactly what we anticipated. No surprises. Very clean and very cozy.
The internet connection was top notch. We didn't care that there was no cable. We never turned on the television.
All in all, a great week! We would recommend to family and friends AND would return again.

Disappointed
Entered on dirt road
Not equipped for seniors 70+ We are 70+ but don’t have mobility issues. Low beds, low toilet and bathroom not equipped with grab handles.
No cable TV
Can not fish from shore and no where to rent a boat on lake.
This facility is best suited for families with children even though there is no beach access.

Your property was as pictured, no red cushions. Needed basic tv, and a radio would of been nice. Had a nice time.
