Cute place, well maintained
Bed were comfy, everything in kitchen we could need. Not too far in from main road. Parking for two vehicles. Lake is smaller, but that meant calm and warmer too! There are stairs down to the lake, one of our party was elderly and found it difficult but rest of us were all good. Overall attractive, very well set up. Clean. No surprises.

Perfect Family Getaway
This beautiful cottage on a smaller lake was perfect for our family vacation. The host was generous and always available. We had no issues while we were there, all of our needs were anticipated. The water in the lake was ideal for paddling and swimming (no weeds). The cottage itself fit our family of four well with some room to spare. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you would need to cook dinner (or bake cookies). :) The Wifi worked very well for streaming and working remotely. I highly recommend! Just pack your swimsuit and groceries and head to this cottage for a relaxing getaway surrounded by mature evergreens on a peaceful lake.
