Beautiful setting! Private, beautiful grounds, and great lake access for kayaking. LOVED the hammock! Well equipped kitchen and comfy living space. Only downfalls…wish there was an electric coffee maker and a larger bed on first floor. Had a great stay!

Beautiful, natural, quiet setting
A lovely spot that really showcases the beauty of the region. Comfortable house. No internet onsite but you can use starlink if you have a setup you can bring. Very quiet and serene. Note that there is not really a beach; very rocky and difficult entry. Bottom is nice though once you get in. The hammock right next to the wayer is wonderful. Thank you for a nice vacation
