Cozy and Quiet, with a Few Quirks
We stayed for two nights while attending a local event. Overall, the place was bigger and cozier than it appears—clean, quiet, and charming. The driveway easily fit three cars. The main bathroom is modern, the attic bedroom is well-insulated (great for kids), and the deck offers a nice lake view (though there’s no direct lake access). We appreciated having a dishwasher and detergent on hand.Note about the attic bedroom: there is no inward stair rail--which is a safety hazard. Be cautious when negotiating the steps, especially in socks.To note for travelers: The “fully stocked” kitchen lacked basics like cooking oil, and many pots and pans were warped/uneven. The coffee pot was in poor shape, so we heated water in a pot. There are no towel racks in the main bathroom, which made drying towels a challenge for our group of five. The half bath is tight—its toilet is tucked away in a corner, the sink can block the door, and the lock doesn’t offer much privacy. Floors slope noticeably, and the bed frames squeak if you move around. There’s also a salvage yard across the street, but we mostly focused on the back deck. The fees were quite high (over 40% of our total), and while there seems to be a fire pit, it was unclear if the wood was for guests.Despite these quirks, it’s a comfortable spot, and with a few improvements, it could be a real gem.
The place was immaculate and the kitchen is gorgeous. Watching the lake from the deck while sipping coffee was very nice- we even saw a red-headed duck! The kids loved their own suite upstairs complete with their own tv. The couch was more comfortable than my own.
The host is very responsive to any questions. I’ve had some that don’t reply- not Brianna- prompt responses from her.
I enjoyed taking morning walks and taking in the country views.
Also- if you have Walmart plus- they will deliver to this location.
A must is Red Shale ride vineyards. Amazing selection and awesome people.
Horning’s Country Store is great as well if you are looking for some Amish goods, bulk food, and/or some good sweet treats.
And a farmer’s market Kenny Stehr & Sons is great for produce.
