Everything was as described. From check in to check out. We had a few question prior to booking, that were answered promptly. And we had a problem with a door while we were there and it was taken care of that day. Cottage had everything we needed. Lake was good for our grandkids and fishing was good for the fisherman. Very good people to rent from. Thank you again for making our stay good.
Great view.

Family vacation

We enjoyed our family vacation at this cute little cottage right on the lake. There were beautiful sunsets and shallow water perfect for our kids to enjoy. There are plenty of places to eat in the area, they also provide kitchen necessities if you wanted to cook at the cottage. Great communication from the hosts and everything went perfect! Thank you!!
