The owners were kind & patient in handling the contract after I confirmed my reservation through VRBO. We were excited to visit snow beach, as that’s where I played as a child on BBI. We had myself, 2 teens, 1 tween & our dog. We had to arrive a day late due to a medical emergency so Kathy left the cabin ready for us upon arrival. Everything listed was there & available; kitchen appliances, beach chairs, bed linens, towels, dish soap, paper products, etc. I wish I’d packed more than 1 beach towel per person because we spent hours on the water everyday. There was a laundry line though, and our towels were mostly dry by the next day (except the night it rained & I forgot to get them 😂). The yard was comfortable & there was a hammock for our use. The monarchs were in full season & created a magical atmosphere. My daughter saved a few chrysalises that had been knocked to the ground. We wore water shoes when we swam b/c the first few steps into the lake we’re rocky, but the beach & lake beyond that were soft sand. My iuds could enjoy themselves out a good distance & still touch, and loved that it wasn’t mushy or seaweedy like inland lakes. Island info, street address, important contact #’s, maps, & historical stories were available in the cottage. The beds were comfy & fans were provided for warm nights. We could not have asked for a better location to stay. Life truly is Better at the Cottage at Snow Beach!
