We took many day trips. Burt Lake is lovely…it’s shallow and clean, great for swimming, but can be quite chilly in our experience. ##### Bridget L.

We have been coming up to Mullet Lake for years and decided on a Burt lake property this time. Cottage was good size, family of 6 was comfortable. Dock was really nice. Tons of amenities, from coffee and firewood and a nice gift basket with wine. My only suggestion is to remove a bit of the decor/pillows, it gave it a bit of a cluttered feel, otherwise the place was great. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barry B. Jul 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place to unwind We enjoyed our time at the cottage! It's an excellent location with easy access to a lot of attractions. Our family of 5 was comfortable and with the weather while we were there, the lack of air conditioning was not an issue. During the week, the lake was very quiet. Other reviews noted the rooster next door, who let his presence be known, but he didn't wake us up early. Kitchen utensils were a bit limited but we found what we needed to get by. Communication with the host was excellent. Overall, it was a terrific stay! ##### Barry B.

Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### DK B. Aug 10, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### NICE COTTAGE WITH BEAUTIFUL VIEW, GREAT DOCK! This property is very nice and had everything we needed, including great beach towels. Master king bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed as well. Condiments to use already in fridge. There is no air conditioning so the day could really heat up the place but there were ceiling fans and that was helpful. Overall, we were very happy! There was only one negative and it was not a huge deal. There are chickens and a rooster nextdoor. The rooster WILL wake you at 6:00 a.m. We did go back to sleep but definitely was an alarm clock for us each morning. The chickens wander into the yard and do not cause any issues at all but a dog from down the street got a chicken in the yard last morning we were there. We were able to get the chicken from the dog and all was well. :) ##### DK B.
