This little cottage was quite cute and cozy. The bath was a combo toilet and shower with no sink. The bed was comfortable but it's pushed up against the wall, so if you need to get up it will disturb your partner. The living room was warm with it's heater stove.
There was a Keurig coffee pot and tea in the room with dishes, pans and a refrigerator. There isn't any cafe except Mary's - which has an excellent view of McKinley and good food, But it's 20 miles south of this property.
We didn't come totally prepared to cook, so that was our bad. The lake was peaceful and beautiful.
The host was friendly and let us drop our cold stuff in the fridge before our check in time.
It is a drive into the National Park, but the State Park is very close.
