Enjoyed our stay!

My family including my husband, two daughters (5 and 8), and my mom and sister all had an enjoyable stay at the cottage. We enjoyed the fireworks display from the deck, and the parade in a nearby town. It was relaxing and fun!

I will say this first, that the view of the lake was beautiful from the deck. The place needs to be updated. The neighbor is right on top of you, which wouldn't of been bad, but after the second night around 5pm of the blasting music, I decided to complain to the owner of this VRBO, and the music stopped. Also, there is only one full bath and that caused a problem for four people. One TV in the living room and the Window Unit in the main living area has rags pushed around the window, with buckets collecting the water. We were very disappointed for the money we paid and I have learned from this experience to ask the owner questions before it's too late. I've written to VRBO and never heard back.

Very nice older 2&2. We have stayed here before and like it very much. A peaceful hour in the fishing chairs at the end of the dock are great place to kick back.

Great Little Lake Houes

We needed a place to stay with our dogs, this place was great. House was clean, just as described. The lake is right out the door and the loons were delightful to watch. I would happily stay here again.

Hometown visit

My husband grew up on Koontz lake. It was our first time visiting in twenty years and bringing our daughter. She had never seen the lake or area that her Dad grew up. Perfect location and beautiful lake views. We enjoyed a meal on the deck and night and coffee in the morning.

Average

It was an okay place and the owner was accommodating, but for the amount of money we had to spend, we thought it should be more high end. We have stayed in several other places that were a lot nicer for less money.
