Cozy Cottage
Cozy lakeside property that has everything you need. Our family enjoyed the deck, fishing off the dock, playing bags and especially the fire pit down by the water!

Fishing cottage
Great cottage .Great for fishing with dock to tie a boat. Nice fire pit. Might not be the place for small children or quiet with bar and music right next door .Nice porch and view of the lake.

Great view of the lake!
We enjoyed our stay at this lakefront house, especially our morning coffee out on the deck looking at the lake. The house was located not far from restaurants and other small towns. Jessica was very helpful with giving us suggestions of things to do, restaurants in the area, and helped with connecting the television. We definitely are thinking of staying again and perhaps renting the other three houses with family and friends next year.
