Cozy relaxing retreat.
Although not really close to anything, it had everything we needed. Perfect for a family get away. The adult bedrooms were small, but that was not where we were spending our time. The kids absolutely loved the space and the triple bunk bed in their room. The yard, dock and lake was an endless supply of "treasures" for the kids to find. Very well stocked with supplies. From boogy boards, fishing equipment, games, indoor and outdoor seating and all the necessities needed, it was all there. Super accommodating hosts. Would love to come back and would highly recommend this place.

Awful
Our stay at this VRBO property was a major letdown. The house was described as lakeside beauty, but the lake entrance and was filthy, and we couldn't even dip our toes in the water. The house itself had a terrible smell, reminiscent of cow manure, and appeared to be in a poor, almost haunted condition. The beds were never made, and the linens and towels were dirty and used. It was such a distressing experience that we wanted to leave immediately. I strongly advise against booking this property; it’s not worth the money or the hassle.

Great location and well stocked home! Lovely sunsets and fire each night while overlooking the water. Two of the bedrooms were VERY tiny which we did not expect- might have been better for twin bed or bunk beds?Comfy couch and lots to do.

Lake life here is EXQUISITE!
This cottage is exactly as advertised! Easy to find, excellent communication from the host and everything looks just as pictured. Sadly, we were only able to get away for a short stint but sure enough, the cottage allowed us to absolutely maximize our time and enjoyment. The lake was amazing and everything we could have wanted was right there at our finger tips. Two short excursions but beyond that, having brought all our groceries in with us, we stayed put enjoying the water, the firepit and the cozy comfort just steps away from the front door. Thanks Cottage at Baird Point, you really hit the spot!! Did I mention the host was exceptionally kind, because she WAS!

Best vacay ever!
We rented this lovely home for a family vacation and to celebrate our nephews HS grad. It is the perfect little get-away. Our 10 family members fit perfectly without crowding and we were very comfortable. The Tiki hut was our main living area due to its perfect setting right on the bay. After our first night, my husband said that we WILL be renting this house again! Lots of waterfront, excellent for swimming and kayaking. Even though there are homes on either side, it was super private and we didn’t feel on display at all. All the little extras that were included really made us feel welcome (kayaks, floaties, noodles, firewood, games, camp wood, etc!). Absolutely perfect! The home is well maintained, gorgeously decorated, and supplied. Thank you so much for a memorable vacation in total comfort!
