Pets: Freshwater Vacation Rentals currently charges $75/per pet for your entire stay. Yes, we do accept dogs, yet we do ask that you please clean up after them both inside and outside the cabin.

Just let us know which bed you will be using with them, and we'll make sure it is ready for your sheets when you arrive. Plus, if the pet hair starts to build, we do ask that you please run the vacuum. Generally, dogs love the water and places to explore. Pet food does tend to attract mice, so vigilance is needed.

It was a decent place. Very clean. Organization could have been a smidge better. Only real issue was the price. Too high. Will not return for that price.

Cute little cabin if you just want a romantic getaway in the woods. The hot tub was nice, and the screened in gazebo makes a nice place for a romantic dinner
