Lake house
Very scenic lake view. The grounds need to be cleaned up. There is broken chairs ect. that need to be thrown out. The windows need new screens as I taped the storm door. A little tlc this place would be exceptional.

Unplug and recharge
Really sweet little cabin by the lake - we loved access to kayaks and dock, the sunset, and being tucked away on an island. Very quaint and cozy.

Fishing weekend on the lake.
A couple friend enjoyed a nice long weekend on the lake. The location was perfect. We were able to keep our kayaks right on the dock. It was nice to hang outside on the deck, enjoy the tiki bar or sit by a nice fire.
We would definitely go back.

Graduation
5 person family. Mother , father , daughter and 2 sons all kids in their 20’s. Our middle son graduated this weekend so we cooked , ate , took the boats out and hung out on the deck and played board games. Pure heaven. An escape from reality. The cottage is beautiful. A trip back in time.
