I really enjoyed staying at this property. It was very clean and comfortable. Nice area for parking your ATV or snowmobile. My favorite spot in the house was in the recliner by the window that overlooks the pond. I go up north a couple of times a year and this is the first property I want to go back to.

Janet is a great host and her cottage is so comfy and well kept! The pictures look great, but this home looks even better in person! My family appreciated everything about our stay (the swing set, beautiful view of the pond, large bedrooms, quality of fixtures/furniture, etc). I can’t say enough positive things about our stay!

The house was perfect for an adult weekend getaway with side by sides and relaxing. The hosts were great and everything was more than adequate for our needs. We are already planning a trip back next year.

Excellent stay

We had a great time at this cabin and it was conveniently located right next to the orv trails. Gas station was right across the road and the bar right down the road has excellent food. Would definitely stay here again.
