Enjoyable and Relaxing

Great place with wonderful amenities. We brought our two younger children and they thoroughly enjoyed being at the lake and everything to do at, and near, the property. Everyone is looking forward to staying again!

Great Cozy Cabin

This property is absolutely gorgeous! It was the perfect size for our family of 3, but could easily accommodate a family of 6. The kids room has 4 bunk beds. The garage is full of games/activities, we had our own beach area, fire pit and kayaks/paddleboards to use. The place is beautifully decorated and has all the essentials for cooking! We will definitely be back!

The guesthouse was perfect! We had a great long weekend. Our kids loved the bunk room and all of the activities in the garage. The beach and lake were great for kayaking and stand up paddle boarding. The cabin was beautiful, wonderfully stocked and exceptionally clean.

Guesthouse

The guesthouse mirrors the main cottage, with the addition of games in the garage. I would highly recommend adding the guesthouse to your stay if you are staying in the main cottage. It was amazing!

We had a three generation family reunion on North Long Lake. The property was one of the best places we have ever stayed! Arby was wonderful to work with. She was so helpful and responsive. We rented both cottages and highly recommend getting both. Arby and Eric thought of everything from the kayaks, paddle boards and firewood outside, to the beautiful comforts of home inside. We lacked nothing! Everyone is excited to return to these cottages.
