We had the best time even though the weather was not cooperating. We loved sitting on the back porch watching the rain and all the wildlife in the yard. The apartment is adorable and very clean, and the bed was so comfortable! Kelly and Coach made us feel right at home and were very accommodating throughout our stay.

We stayed at this beautiful studio apartment style rental for 5 nights. It was beautifully laid out and just perfect for me and my husband. The decor was absolutely adorable. The best part was the incredible view that the place offers. We loved waking up every morning and having coffee at the table and seeing the lake out the huge picture window. There was also a huge amout of seating outside on their porch for louging. The place is just as it is pictured. Very roomy for just the 2 of us. It was super clean and tidy. The bed was comfortable and Kelly had plenty of pillows and blankets. She text us as soon as we arrived and checked in making sure we had a great stay. She offered restaurant, entertainment and other suggestions while we were chatting. We adored our time here and are already planning another trip!

We loved our stay here. So quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed the beautiful weather while walking down to the dock and just sitting on that big old porch with a cup of coffee. The morning and evening Lakeview was spectacular. We hope to enjoy this little cottage again soon.
