What a wonderful stay at the cottage in Butler. We had a 3 day stay. What a BEAUTIFUL area with the lake nice and close. The drive to town for groceries is a nice drive along the lake. The home was amazing! The instructions were very well accessible for check in and check out. Easy to find and park. Friendly neighbors. It was great to sit on the porch and unwind. Fully stocked with everything we needed plus more. We truly enjoyed the stay and we will be back next year! From ct!
