Fun little lake house - stairs are kind of steep but no problem for us. Loved the place! Decorations were marvy and enjoyed the vinyl collection.

The cottage is exactly as described. Having the kayaks available was great. Beds were comfortable, that’s always a concern. Nice bedding. There were little treats for us and coffee which we forgot to bring. The host was very quick to respond and there is a book with local ideas of things to do. It was perfect for the four of us and we would stay again.

We enjoyed our stay at Sean’s lake cottage. It was a good location for us visiting family in Saratoga. It reminded me of grandma’s cottage, charming, cozy. We’ve experienced the sulpher water before , no big deal. It had everything thing we needed for a short stay. Sean was very helpful, and went out of his way to accommodate our plans.

It was a very rustic, vintage cottage but comfortable. I have a part-time retirement job at a very large antique shop in my hometown so I could appreciate his joy of collecting antiques. The water did have a very distinctive smell, but the water pressure was sufficient. We wish we could have enjoyed being on the lake more, but the weather didn't permit, it was very rainy and miserable. We appreciated him letting us check in a little bit early.

The location was idyllic and such a cozy private neighborhood. Comfortable accommodations and nice bonus details like the record player made it a fun stay. Would like to come back again for a long stay and take more advantage of the lakeside amenities.

Wish we could have stayed longer at this sweet cabin by the lake! It was so cozy on a cool October night. We were 3 generations of women - grandmother, mother and daughter and we each found things we loved here. The sunrises, they comfy beds and the charming details like the quirky stairs and the antiques.

Charming but rustic amazingly well stocked homey cabin. Excellent location. But if you are looking for super modern elegance, this is not the place for you. If you appreciate unique accommodations, you will love it.

Relaxing

Staying here brought back all of my childhood memories of cottage we used to visit every summer. I loved the eclectic decor and appreciated the modern amenities (TV in each bedroom). We especially enjoyed the kayaks.

Nice, rustic, peaceful.

Had a great stay, wish the lake was right on the back yard, it's across the road but still very close. Thoughtful host, the cheese and crackers was a nice surprise and a great late night snack. Sunrise over the lake was excellent and the view of the lake from the living room is very peaceful. Great vibes at this place
