Loved it all!

This was the perfect getaway spot for our small family of four's first vacation on our own. The cottage was cozy, clean, and very well-stocked. The sandy beach right in the backyard made each day relaxing and adventurous for the adults and our two young kids. We really loved our visit and hope to stay again!

Great Cabin

Our stay at this cabin was wonderful. We had everything we could need and loved the detailed instructions for the fireplace as we did not luck out with good weather - cold, rainy and snowy - fire a must. Would 100% rent again - the owners are fantastic.

Perfect Getaway

Alan and Linda are great hosts. The cottage is amazingly well kept. A great location for someone looking for a quiet getaway. Far enough away from real life but close enough to some fun activities. The view of the lake and a small fire in the fireplace was the relaxing experience I was looking for.
