This property is simply delightful. Well appointed, beautifully designed, extremely comfortable. Please don't tell anyone else about it!!! We want to stay again. Thank you for the gift bag of goodies on our arrival. Best wishes to the owners. They have done a fantastic job of creating a wee bit of paradise.

Tidy wee Bach with lovely interior. Very well equipped and comfortable with a great woodburner. Nice to have the table tennis and darts in the garage for the kids after a day out tramping or skiing. Will consider again when coming back to the Great Lake region. Thanks
