Comfy cozy inviting cottage that had everything we needed. The extra’s for our fur buddy were delightful. All the amenities and then some! A well thought out place to welcome guests. Clean, neat, and a warm environment to relax and enjoy. Sandra was super helpful and quick to respond when needed. We enjoyed the sleeping porch and backyard especially.

Cozy cabin
The cabin was perfect for us! The owner made it cozy and welcoming for us and our dog, Bo. He loved relaxing in front of the fire :). Very close to attractions and restaurants in the area: Club 28, Iron Nugget, Cold Iron Brewing, Roger Randall Bakery, Root Beer Waterfall, Potawatomi Waterfall and Snow River Resort are things we checked out :) When we come back up, we will definitely see if this place is available.
