Comfortable cabin with a beautiful view

We had a very enjoyable and relaxing weekend. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. We especially enjoyed eating on the deck overlooking the water and having a fire down by the lake in the evening. Marc is a very friendly and accommodating host.

Beautiful view for a peaceful getaway!

The view of water is amazing. Being able to sit outside on the beautiful Trex deck (no splinters) to eat and relax is priceless. The cabin is cute and clean. Anything you could need during your stay is already there.

Little piece of heaven

We were looking for a nice long weekend to unwind and relax… this place was it! The lake was peaceful and beautiful! The view from the property was amazing! Fishing from the dock and boat relaxing! Teaching our youngest pup to “dock dive” so much fun! The cabin has everything you need! Marc is a great host!

Relaxation at its finest

This was in our top 3 most relaxing trips! The cottage was homey and comfortable for the two of us. The deck views are incredible. The lake is so clear and has some incredible fishing! We caught everything from small mouth, large mouth and rock bass to blue gill and pearch. The only downfall is the mosquitos after dark. Bring your bug spray!

Private, quiet and peaceful

Very private, quiet and peaceful location. It rained most of our stay, but the lake and leaves were so pretty. We had games, puzzles and lots of channels on the rain days. The manager was very friendly and even left us a little gift when we arrived. We really did have everything thing we needed except for food. Thanks for a wonderful visit.

Fishing Cabin

Everything went great and the fishing was phenomenal. Definitely some of the best largemouth, small mouth, and pike fishing that I've had on smaller lakes up north. The fishing boat with a small gas engine was a nice touch and worked great for getting around the lake. The welcome bag of wine, meat, and cheese was great as well. The deck was a perfect place to eat meals and perfect having both a gas and charcoal grill on the deck available for grilling. Would definitely come back in a heartbeat!

Quaint cabin

When we arrived it was very easy check in. We liked that it had all of the amenities that we needed and more. I wasn’t able to contact the host in regards to a few suggestions. My small dog was able to climb under the futons where she found multiple m&ms and ended up ingesting them. We proceeded to pull back the futon and vacuumed underneath where we found many more food items. I did email the host but with no response. The dock was nice to fish off of and swim. Very beautiful piece of property.
