Since it was September, there were very few people on the lake and it was very peaceful. I would suspect it would be nice during the summer as well since it is not overbuilt with cottages. The cottage was not new, but had been fixed up very nicely, was clean, and was furnished with everything we needed. The owner was very easy to work with and was available if needed. Beautiful sunsets and great fishing. The kayaks and other boats provided was a nice extra. Would highly recommend. ##### Gary J. Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carolyn K. 30 Jun 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family gathering on Stewart Lake. Lovely little cottage that comfortably held six adults and two children. Well equipped and nicely furnished. A relaxing time was had by all. The beautiful weather was a plus. ##### Carolyn K.
