We loved the cabin! It was cozy and we loved that it was right on the shore of the lake. It was very peaceful and quiet. The cabin had everything we needed and the host was friendly and responsive. We will definitely be booking another stay here!

This was a very cozy, clean, and perfect little cottage. It was right next to the lake and a small beach where our kid was able to enjoy the water and play along with other guests from other cottages. Everything was in working condition. We had a small issue with the oven but that was quickly sorted within minutes of us contacting the host. The only thing was the BBQ - which was not clean and was not in condition to be used. We enjoyed our stay and had a blast. WiFi was great, not spotty. There is a dollar store near the cottage which carries almost everything you would need in case you ran out.
