Weekend getaway
Nice stay at the cabin. The location is very nice and the outdoor space more than met our needs. The bedrooms and bathroom are a bit cozy, but they worked just fine. We had hoped to get our canoe out on the lake but the weather had other plans.

loved it!
This place was great enjoyed everything about it. The only improvement I can think about would be to have a row boat we could have used to get out and do some fishing. We fished off the dock and caught very small perch but from what our neighbor told us it's great fishing if you get out a few hundred yards. But still loved it, cabin was clean and had more than what we needed and the location is beautiful. And Jayne was just a text away all the time great communications. Thanks again, Earl

On Indian Lake
The lake location was great for sunsets. Too rainy for water activities or campfire. We explored many of the nearby State Parks as well as the Garden Peninsula.

Charming cabin on the water, great view of lake and deck
We really enjoyed our stay, 2 couples, grilled and ate on the back deck, made a fire- they had 4 marshmallow roasting sticks ready for us what a nice touch. Could get a little hot in the bedrooms but fine if you turn the ceiling fans on the highest level I’m a hot sleeper. Friendly pup Wagz visited us. So much charm would definitely recommend

great location
this property is in a great location. Whether you just want to relax in comfort on the lake or take the time to travel to to some of the area beautiful sites. You can see so much in 2 hours or less. The cottage is clean, roomy and cozy. Everything you need is there. From cooking utensils to bathroom supplies to bedtime. If your a boater or swimmer you don't have to go far to enjoy that. You'll never find a better place for a sunset!! I guess the only request I would have is for a flyswatter for that ONE pesky fly.
