What an awesome, peaceful location. The cabin was cute, cozy and had everything we needed for a few days of relaxation. The views were spectacular in the morning and just got better as the sun set. The kitchen had everything you would need to make breakfast and lunch and the location meant it was easy to find a nice restaurant for dinner. We will definitely be back!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: wonderful! We lived next door in a cottage on the lake (since turned into a park)so this was homecoming! Couple of items: the stopped in bath sink would not go up to run water through. The under Mw light was not working. It is sort of dim in the kitchen so would suggest installing the light bulb or putting a strip of lights under cabinets. Great place! Tasty decorations and quality was very good.

Cozy but unclear communication

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin itself was clean, comfortable, and well stocked with the necessary equipment. The fireplace was great especially during the colder nights. My biggest issue with it was the communication leading up to the stay. I repeatedly contacted the owner to see how to get in because I hadn't received any new communication in the days leading up to it. After inquiring, I would get generic copy-pasted message that wasn't answering my questions. After hours of waiting, I received a link that still didn't have the information I needed. I tried calling the number provided but there was no one to pick up. I fortunately found it after searching a text from months ago with a link of the access code.The check in process would be significantly simpler and more reassuring if the link is sent through email and is accessible on Vrbo somewhere too.

Christmas 2024 visit

Views of the lake were spectacular and would come back for another visit. A few suggestions for the owner to consider, would be to upgrade the cable service to include premium apps like Netflix and Hulu so guests can login to their account and watch movies and shows.

Absolute gem! This cottage was perfect for a weekend getaway with my dearest friend. The kitchen is stocked with what you need to make meals, the fridge has a freezer, coffee pot takes regular ground coffee (filters are provided), the shower was delightful, the bedding is super comfortable, the view is divine, there is a patio to enjoy a meal or morning coffee, the lake is literally steps away and two sun chairs are provided as are the beach towels for them. It’s quiet, safe, adorable, and absolutely wonderful! There is dedicated parking for 1 vehicle and two spaces for guests that are not dedicated to the unit. There are nearby walking trails in the forest, nearby dining, and Safeway is 2 minutes away. Loved it!
