Great Cottage Near Northport
The house is great. The pictures are accurate and it’s overall very comfortable. The yard and beach are nice especially with little kids. The beach is small but perfect to contain a roaming 4 year old. Quick walk into town and very very quiet.

Great Place
We totally enjoyed our stay here. Everything was just great. The only thing, is the coffee pot should probably be replaced, as it took quite a while to fill. The view, was just so beautiful and the sunsets in October were awesome. I would recommend this place to anyone.

This house was in a perfect location. The house was immaculate when we arrived, and much larger than the pictures show for the price. Our two young children had a blast playing on the beach, and running around in the water all week. Very close to downtown, that you can even walk to, to do any shopping you desire with a public park/beach as well. We'll definitely be coming back next year!

Sons wedding
Excellent, everthing we needed plus. Wedding venue in the area. We needed a place for us, grandma. Our 2 adult kids with 2 granddaughters. Perfect setting, rooms were great. Easy in and out without huge requirements, be kind to all properties!
Wish we had more down time to enjoy the spaces. One word of care, slippery tub in master bath. Nursing bruised pride.

Reviewer Comments:
Location was created view of the lake was amazing and so was the little beach area. We did not like the lack of air flow and the limited windows. The house was very hot and uncomfortable, we had to use all the window fans and it still didn't cool the place down even at night. Wouldn't recommend for smaller toddler age children. Adults would do just fine.
