This cottage was the perfect end of summer getaway. We loved the property and exploring the area. Our dogs especially loved the property! The sunrises over the lake were amazing. The small size was perfect for us!

Lovely place to spend New Years Eve

We enjoyed our visit so much. We had everything we needed in the cabin along with the beautiful view of the water. We used the fire pit at night and soaked up the quiet and the solitude. Our dog enjoyed the time there, too!

Quaint, quiet getaway

This is our favorite place to have some quiet time together with the Lord. The lake allows for some fun fishing and quiet kayaking. The home is cozy and quiet for the two of us to enjoy games, dinner and snuggles under the open skies.

Adorable

We have family that lives in the area and we love visiting but hate leaving our dogs at home. We were so lucky to find a place that we could stay and bring our two dogs. They loved running around in the open field beside the cabin. The lake is beautiful and the cabin was so cozy. We would love to visit in the warmer months to use the lake!

Grandson and Grandparents had a Wonderful Time!

The cabin was a perfect fit for two adults and one child. The weather in Mid-May was perfect, not too warm of muggy. We saw no mosquitoes until the last night. If you know where to go on the lake, you catch big bass. The owner, Rick, is extremely nice and helpful. He lives on the property.

Quiet Getaway

The cabin was exactly what we were looking for, a quiet place to get away with nothing around for miles. Literally nothing around. There is a little stop l strip about 10 minutes away that had several dollar stores and a gas station but that's about it. There's a large town about 30 minutes out. All you can hear from the cabin is nature!! It was a perfect for me husband and I but there is a twin bed up on the loft if you brought a child. Fishing is hard unless you're on a boat since the lake is full of grass that you're hook will catch on, other than that great stay!!

What a cute little cabin! There is a small loft in the living room area where my 3 1/2 year-old granddaughter spent a lot of time with her toys and iPad. She loved it up there.The kitchen had everything we needed with a cut out where we could talk to each other from the front room to the kitchen.Loved how the kitchen door went right out to a deck with plenty of seating and a table. The front porch was perfect for morning, coffees, and afternoon wine. The view was beautiful, and the baby played in the leaves and the hammock! Our hosts were terrific! Check-in was so easy and the cabin was clean and ready. We loved it and my daughter and I plan to go back again!

The pet friendly cabin is small but very comfortable and equipped with everything we needed. Everything was in working order. Although the air conditioner worked well it was a bit annoying at night as it was loud and would shut off when reaching the desired temperature and then come back on loudly which jolted us awake throughout the night. There’s a cute loft, which could sleep a child. The deck is spacious with a nice view of the lake. The host was ever accommodating. It’s a very peaceful and quiet setting. We would return.

We had an enjoyable stay and the host was friendly and responsive. We saw many deer and a bald eagle during our stay. The cabin sits back away from the lake not on the shore and is partially blocked by a new home being built just a couple of hundred feet away. This is a public lake where we saw numerous fisherman with their boats come all different times of the day. They had to use the same driveway as we and the other residents nearby used to launch their boats. Would have liked to seen additional pictures of the cabin and property before we booked as that would have made a difference in our decision to stay. I believe the limited pictures were intentional. The listing says the cabin is “No Smoking” however, the cigarette smoke smell was quite strong. We had to leave the doors open to help with the odor. With that said, my wife and I still had a good time, we just wish the cabin was listed accurately.
