A delightful retreat over the 4th of July
We had a delightful stay at this very nice cottage in the heart of Vanderbilt. We were using it as “overflow housing” for our cottage on nearby Thumb Lake (Lake Louise) and it was just what we needed. There were four of us and the bedroom spaces were perfect with three bedrooms, two having queen beds and one having a twin. The mattresses were very comfortable and the closet space in each room was quite adequate. The bathroom, although small, was well equipped and the shower was wonderful. We were there over the week of the 4th of July, and it was quite warm most of the week. Therefore, we appreciated the new, easy to open and close windows throughout the house. Also, having fans in each bedroom and the living room for ventilation was great. We especially loved working in what felt like a brand-new kitchen. We used it to prepare a day’s worth of meals for a group of nineteen people and found plenty of space to prepare, cook and store the food prior to transporting it to the lake the following day. We also enjoyed relaxing in the living room on the two, very comfortable couches and we loved our evenings watching movies on the huge television. Finally, there was space to park three cars in the driveway, and we found the neighbors very friendly. All in all, it was a very delightful stay. Hope we have occasion to stay there again in the future.
