Jul 14, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic cottage and location This cottage exceeded our expectations. Michael was a fantastic host and made sure everything was perfect. We will be staying there again. My only criticism which has nothing to do with the cottage is that the lake has too much algae (we were told this was an anomaly). Location is superb and so relaxing. ##### Peter L.

Lake has a lot of weeds. ##### Carrie G. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chad B. Jul 18, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful property and wonderful owners / property manager We arrived at this cottage and were pleasantly surprised that the owners and property manager were present. They were very kind in giving us a tour and letting us know about the surrounding area and activities. The property manager Michael was very responsive with any questions we had which was very helpful prior to our stay and while we were there. The property has a beautiful view, is extremely clean, modern and has many room options available. Some of the appreciated touches were board games and the variety of water activities for nice weather. The lake at the dock is not deep but has enough depth to still make it enjoyable. One thing to be aware of is that there is a considerable amount of seaweed at the bottom of the water which can make it somewhat challenging to walk around in the lake. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would recommend this property. ##### Chad B. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jared B.

The living space was spacious with lovely views of the lake, well-equipped kitchen, comfortable bedrooms with well sanitized linen and bathrooms. The main floor of the home was walker friendly, which was a bonus with our elderly parents. I would highly recommend it. ##### Elaine S. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Melissa J.
