The cottage itself was excellent. We missed being able to lie down and relax outside, there is cero level place on the lawn! It was difficult to enter the water from the dock: ladder too short! (a neighbor let us use his!) No furniture outside except four plastic upright chairs! I would not rent this place again!

We are sorry you were not able to lie down outside. If you had asked, we could have provided lounge chairs. We do not keep them out in the lawn due to winds and lawn maintenance. Unfortunately the ladder was too short to get in and out of the water due to the water level being dropped in the fall. This is something that is controlled by the state. You are the first who have ever complained regarding any of your complaints.
