When we first pulled up and got out of our car, my husband and I just stood there in awe at how beautiful the scenery was. The cottage is on a peninsula surrounded by water on 3 sides with stunningly gorgeous pines and trees all around and was nice and private. A vacation rental come true for two introverts like us! lol This is the best VRBO we have rented and the picutres of the views surrounding the cotttage do not do it justice. This was a pefrect getaway for our anniversay. We watched the sunrise in the am from the front deck and listened to the loons and all the sounds of nature. All that was missing was Henry Fonda, Jane Fonda, and Katharine Hepburn! :) We went kayaking and paddle boating every day. The fact that this cottage came with a selection of boats to use was a huge selling poing for us. There was barely a sole on the lake all 4 days (which is our favorite time to travel for that very reason) and we had the entire lake and cove to ourselves it felt like. I'm sure this lake is extrembely busy in the Summer but we lucked out as far as what we enjoy when we travel. It rained one day and we sat under the roof at the adorable storage cottage and watched and listened to the rain and smelled the incredible smells of the pines. The lake looked almost turquise and it was so peaceful and relaxing. We hope to definitely come back again next year! Thank you Audrey and Jim for sharing your little slice of heaven with us! ##### Jennifer A.
