I have a small white towel that was in my luggage by mistake. Do you want me to mail it back to the address of the Cabin?

We enjoyed our stay. We always try to find a place in a quiet cove and this one did not disappoint. We had a smooth check-in and checkout was easy also. We had no issues during our stay. Loved the game-room! Nice to have the bigger ice maker, kitchen was well equipped. Most grills seem to get neglected but this one was clean and ready to use, we did have to change the tank on it but they had an extra tank already there, so that was an easy fix. Walk back up the hill is a little challenge for an old out of shape grandma, but I made it. LOL We would stay here again.

Perfect cove in a great area on the lake. The kids enjoyed the paddle board and the air hockey table! It was a very nice week of rest, and the house had everything we needed and more. Mornings on the master deck drinking coffee were the best. Will definitely be going back!

This place was SPECTACULAR! The view of the lake from the property is stunning. The home is secluded in the woods with neighbors, but they are at a good distance away. The dock appears to be the last dock in a cove so it was also super private and secluded. The home itself is beautiful, and we could not stop raving about the property and all it has to offer. The house has everything you could possibly need, even shampoo, conditioner, and body wash dispensers full in every shower in the home. I have never stayed at a place that provided this many essentials to their guests. The nearest town is only about 15 mins away and has anything you may need. We rented a boat from a local marina for a day and the views of the lake are unmatched. We would recommend this property to anyone, and we hope to revisit one day. It was simply perfection. You won't regret your stay!
