Very private location and the camp was stocked well. Located in a cove which was great for swimming. Enjoyed the kayaks and the loons. The stairs would be a challenge if alone and need to do several trips to unload and load. Host was very responsive!

Great property - very peaceful and quiet. Right next to the water. There are a lot of stairs to get from the street down to the house (and steps inside too), fine for us, just be aware. Kayaks were fun. Deck is great for hanging out and viewing the lake.

The views were amazing from every level and the whole scenery was nothing short of spectacular.This camp was not only wonderful for me to rest, study, and soak in the lake and woods, but it also had all the gear for serious kayaking adventures if I wanted to.The stay was deeply relaxing and rejuvenating. Very peaceful too…the kind of peace that lingers long after leaving.I would definitely stay again.Thank you Shawn for providing this amazing lake house.

This is our second time staying at the property and it was just as wonderful as the first. Close to everything you might want to do for hiking and excursions but once you're sitting on the deck at the lake you really feel like you've "gotten away". Appreciate the full kitchen and towels and linens for the house. Hope to be able to return again in the future.

Angelic and private cottage / camp. Great views of the lake. Perfect for my wife and i . Home was clean and close to restaurants/ activities. Abundance of wild life and was a relaxing stay. The only drawback is the home sits at bottom of hill on the lake resulting in a lot of stairs to traverse to get to the home . Otherwise perfect for what were looking for .

Shawn made check in/ check out super easy for us. We appreciated that water and cleaning supplies were provided. It was also lovely to have a window unit in the bedroom and living room. The views are absolutely breath taking sun up to sundown. It was the perfect little get away.

Lake side retreat

Such a wonderful location! We were blessed with beautiful weather. We love the access to paddle boards and kayaks! Lots of stairs but made the drinks on the deck with the view of the lake so worth it!

Beautiful lake cabin

This property has everything you need for a great stay on the lake. The views are breathtaking. Although it is a “cabin” it has the feel of a home. There are a lot of stairs but, it is well worth the effort. We had a great time!

We enjoyed our stay. The place was clean and inviting. The steps and canoe gave us a full body workout. We even tackled a crossword puzzle on the only rainy dad we had.

Beauftiful (hurricane) sunsets

The view out over the lake was extremely nice and the hurricane (that past by) only real effect was two very spectacular sunsets!! Must be great during Fall foliage.

Serenity with Gods pallet

Oh so quiet and pretty. Seeing the fall colors and hearing loons in the morning as we sipped our coffee on the deck seeing the calm water with a light fog was so relaxing. Sunsets beautiful and far enough away from the hustle and bustle but close enough for day trips.

On the water

It’s a nice house directly on the lake. A plus is you get a nice workout going up and down The stairs.

Please know that we are NOT complainers, as a rule. In fact, this is the first time we've ever left a negative review, because we know people are typically trying their best. But the condition of this place was so awful we feel we have a duty to warn others. First and foremost -- the place was absolutely filthy. Hairs, in the shower and in the sink; fingerprints on the TV, dust on all the condiments in the kitchen -- many of which expired years ago -- and, our favorite, the freezer burned, open mystery meat in the filthy freezer. And months, if not years, worth of dead bugs in the quite visible light sconces. Lightbulbs were burned out throughout and most importantly, on the steep stairwell down to the property (half were out) making it pretty treacherous in the dark. The toilet upstairs didn't work -- we had to fill buckets of water to flush, and all of the windows facing the lake in the main room were inoperable. So much for getting some fresh lake air. Outside, on the deck, the cushions were caked in bird poop and otherwise just filthy. And a little thing -- there was no potable water, which is fine, but they supplied small plastic bottles of water, versus a water cooler with 5 gallon jugs. I bet we went through 40 bottles during our short stay. What a waste of plastic! Think, people!The only positive about this place is the fact that it is, indeed, on a nice lake with a great view. Everything else was just awful. DO NOT STAY HERE!
