Perfect stay

We had a great time at the cottage. It was quite and very peaceful. We needed it after a stressful year. Even without the lake it was great. Usually we drive around for hiking and fishing. This time we enjoyed staying at the cabin more. The cabin was very clean and spacious. Definitely coming back.

End of summer getaway

This is the second time we've stayed at this cabin and this time waa even better than the first time we stayed there. I'll say we've stayed at a few different places through the years and this is one of the best places we've stayed at. We can't wait until next year to come around so we can stay there again. The place has everything you could ask for stocked in it. The bedding is super clean and comfortable. If you are looking for a nice getaway I would highly recommend it.

Exceptional Getaway!

Our stay was incredible comfortable and the listing was spot-on. The property is situated on a gorgeous spot by a lake and is surrounded by large, gorgeous trees, plenty of greenery and the sounds of the wildlife made the stay (especially the mornings) even better. There is even a washer and dryer onsite that comes in very handy, especially if you take the time to explore the local parks and preserves. The property manager is especially wonderful! He made sure an item i left behind got mailed back to me, which I'm so grateful for! Do not hesitate to book this property, you will not be disappointed!

Peaceful Getaway

The property was very quiet and private and the cabin stocked with many essentials we could use. Although the water level was low, the view was still very pretty and I would recommend this location to anyone looking for a weekend to unplug and relax. Bobby was a great communicator as well, making sure that everything was up to our standards and answered any questions we had.

Quaint little cabin off the beaten path. Just what we were looking for. Do wish it had a smart TV so we could have some streaming options to watch TV. But we made due with the dvd movies.

The one and only thing I can say negative is that there is no internet because in this area it's just plain not available. Cell service is hit-and-miss as well. Other than that, this home is cozy, very clean and well kept, and very comfortable.
