Perfect little retreat

Remodled cottage was clean and had plently space for 1 adult and 3 kids. The wifi and television were great for watching movies and for my teenage daughters to keep their snap streaks. The docks were great for fishing and taking in sunsets. Janet was very responsive to questions and everyone I encountered was very friendly. There is a beach a couple blocks down and many beaches in Alexandria. We enjoyed ice cream at the dairy bar and food/bowling at the barn and bowl right in osakis. Would recommend for a laid back family get away.

Great location and beautiful sunseta

We selected this property because of having access to a dock for our fishing boat. It's very obvious that the cabin had recently been remodeled. The only drawback for me since I have a bad back was the beds. They weren't the most comfortable. We did have a family member sleep on the futon and she said that was comfortable and supportive. It was very close to town, but yet far enough away to enjoy the Serenity of the lake. We had a two year-old with us so it was nice to be able to walk to the park.

Communication with hostess was instant and responsive. When we arrived, we did notice that a few basic amenities that were advertised were not available. We were happy with our planned stay, but probably will not return.

Not what we expected

The cabin is under new ownership and hopefully they will be replacing the couch and carpeting as they were very dirty.

Weekend getaway

Very peaceful at the cabin, wished there was swimming access but there was a beach just a few blocks away. Catching fish right off the dock. Nice size sunnies and bass. Owners were amazing and very friendly. A couple issues with the power but they are fixing it. Overall I had a wonderful time with the family!
