A lovely cottage and a super spot. The house has amazing views over the lake for bedrooms and living spaces. A great seating area with fire pit close to the shore was well used and we managed to explore the lake in the canoes provided in the garage. There are no children’s buoyancy aids so best bring your own to avoid some upset little ones.

Great Place
We stayed just after Labor Day, everything was very quiet. The water was surprisingly warm. The lake is a good size and we had fun kayaking around. The entrance to the lake was a bit mucky, maybe due to recent rain. Hot tub was amazing. The cottage itself was spotless, and had every amenity you could have thought of and more.

Family getaway
This is a fantastic accomodation for anyone looking for a beautiful, well-equipped new cottage nestled in a quiet, forested location. It is on a quiet lake that is great for canoeing and Kayaking (both of which are provided for your use). The deck overlooking the water is great and all the solar lighting creates a beautiful ambiance at night, especially while soaking in the hot tub. A dock to enjoy the sunshine a little longer throughout the day and to by-pass the few weeds near the shore would make this a perfect 5 across the board. Thank you for an amazing stay.

Quiet Oasis
We had a lovely stay at this beautiful property. All the amenities were top notch and the views from inside the cottage are breathtaking thanks to the large windows throughout the cottage. The lake, while peaceful and quiet was still large enough to spend the entire day canoeing or kayaking and plenty of good fishing spots. There is no dock on the property however launching a canoe or kayak was easy thanks to the sandy and shallow shoreline. Dog loved it, we loved it. Thanks for the wonderful stay.
