The house was perfect for us (4 adults and 5 kids aged 5-11). The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans and had a large pantry for all our non-perishable foods. Donna is a great host and truly enjoys hosting family gatherings (we stayed a full week). We also liked having two bedrooms over the garage. The night owls slept there and the early birds slept in the main house. Lastly we enjoyed relaxing on the deck and the ample supply of firewood for campfires and s’mores

Relaxing getaway

We had a wonderful week. Very quiet and peaceful, with stunning sunsets. Cottage was perfect for 2 couples. Super clean, comfy beds and well stocked kitchen. Water is crystal clear, with hard sandy bottom and shallow for 2 football fields.

We had a great time at the lake house. Beautiful sunset views graced our evenings each night we sat by the fire pit. The house was clean and looked just like the pictures in the advertisement. Everything worked well and we hand no issues. The owners were great and easy to work with. Even the neighbors were nice!

Spectacular sunset view

We four adults had a great week! House was well-stocked for cooking in, and clean. Beds were comfortable. We had campfires most nights with amazing fiery sunsets. Our first time to Black Lake- we were blown away by how quiet it is compared to their lakes we’ve visited. Water so clear and clean, too. We will be back.

Wonderful cottage!

My whole family and I had a great time during our week at Donna and Glenn’s cottage! They were very easy and friendly to work with. We loved that it came with two kayaks and a nice fire pit by the lake! My son loved the little beach area where he could dig and play for hours. The cottage was very clean and spacious for my whole family. Beautiful sunsets on the lake! We would definitely stay here again in the future!

Lovely house on the water!

We had a great time for all involved, property was well kept. The beach was a little durty and the grass was long, but that was due to an extenuating circumstance on the owners side. The only downside would be the lack of AC in the over the garage rooms and the extra cleaning fee if you use them.
