Natures Calling is a beautiful, comfy, cozy cottage. It has plenty of room to spread out and can easily accommodate 6 or more. The private basement suite was wonderful. Tim and Shannon provided many extras such as coffee fixins and spices for cooking as well as a few snacks and necessities. It is a great central location for the lake, and nearby attractions.

One pet only

I believe the listing was going to be updated but when I booked it wasn’t clear that pet friendly meant one dog only in spite of the ability to add pets in the plural. I would have went somewhere else if I had realized that. Overall the inside was clean and neat. It rained the duration of our stay which was just as well since the yard area was not really useable space. The owners live next door.
