The cottage gave cabin vibes, very cozy and amazing view of the little lake. Being right on the water was amazing and our doggo loved all the space to smell the smells. Quiet and peaceful, hope to stay here again the next time we're visiting family!

Slightly Disappointed, first time using VRBO. This property would be perfect if they rehab the back of the house . The smell of mildew was a bit overwhelming, Especially in the bathroom. The “clean” towels smelled musty, then smelled of mildew once they were wet. Water leak stains in the ceiling. The floors had mounds in them. There was white pet hair everywhere. Some of the furniture was badly stained. The bed cover had a yellow stain in it. No TV in the larger room. Water pressure was extremely low. The host was nice and we caught a few fish. It was quiet and secluded.

The outside sells this place. Tranquil setting with lots of outside seating. Quiet and the lake is beautiful! Unfortunately, weather turned cold, and we did not get to enjoy the outdoors. Nice lake house, older, but in good shape. The house is small, but adequate for 2. Being stuck inside, my only complaint, too much furniture and decor for a small place. Felt a bit closterphobic for me. Overall, a great rental for good weather.

OUR STAY
This place was just beautiful, and so very peaceful. They did an immaculate refurbishing on the inside of the home! Only a 2 bedroom, but with plenty of living space inside and out. Hot in the summer, but ideal times would be spring and fall.
This is a lovely home on a quiet lake. The house is very clean. The beds are comfortable. The kids enjoyed fishing from the deck. The view of the lake from inside the house is beautiful.
