Quaint Little Cottage
Beautiful little cottage, very clean, with everything that you need. The lake was quiet, we kayaked every day. We really enjoyed our short stay. Loved the call of the loons and even saw a bald eagle.

Comfortable cottage with terrific water access
My husband and I had a wonderful long weekend. We really enjoyed the easy, flat access to the lake. He caught lots of fish and I enjoyed relaxing by the campfire.
