Restful house with great deck
Our visit was quiet and calming, just what we hoped for. The house is nicely decorated and provides all the amenities that we needed. It’s right on the lake and has a nice large deck. The setting is very country, but there are a few places to visit. We went to a country store that had food and other necessities, a rather large plant store, and Bob’s barbecue, which was excellent. The hosts were readily accessible.
In the summer, this would be a fun place for a family visit. In the fall, it provided us with a peaceful getaway.

Perfect Lake Cottage
I was so impressed by all of the amenities this Lake cottage had to offer! James was so easy to communicate with and made our stay extra special with the smores basket and breakfast supplies he had waiting for us! The views from every room are to die for and the fact that there were four kayaks available for our family to use made it possible for us all to enjoy the beauty of the lake together. We will undoubtedly be returning next year!
Cutest cleaniest cottage. Owners so thoughtful leaving a care basket for us with some local goodies. Communication was terrific. Cannot wait to stay again. It was perfect!
