The unit could use a deep cleaning. The drop leaf table was very dirty on the part where the leaf folds down. It was a beautiful setting so close to the lakes. Would probably pick another unit though to stay in next time. ##### Joyce H. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Scott O. Aug 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cabin living Overall rating is good. Cottage was old and rehabbed to a pass rating. Furniture could use a changeout, more specifically the pull out couch, but overall a nice old cottage. Clean outside and was very quiet. The check in process was a bit too much. The additional forms and process, (wanting your personal picture and ID) was going to be a deal breaker. A bit too much for just an old cabin. I have stayed with VRBO, AB&B and other vacation places and the check-in process was far beyond any of them so far. They forget that the third party agencies already have you agree to rules and regulations. Additionally, the check-in and check-out time were a bit tight. I would assume with all the above, they have had problems with renters. I was arriving 5 -10 min prior to 4pm check-in and asked if it was ok and got the “ok but you realize it’s against our normal rules, 4pm is our check-in time”. So I waited until after 4pm to go in. ##### Scott O. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Patty B. Jul 18, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Poor maintenance Our cottage was not in the best condition with paint staining in kitchen and bathroom, loose electrical outlet, floor sloping etc. Large white fence at back of property won’t allow you to see water. The website looked much better than the cabin! ##### Patty B.
