The Chestnut Cove Cottage is in a fabulous location with a gorgeous view of the lake. The cove is beautiful and peaceful. The dock allows for jumping into swimmable water. There is a small sandy spit to walk into the water, very suitable for the young and fit middle aged.The house is spacious with a large sitting room with a wide screen TV. The home is rustic with old furniture inside and out. The AC worked well for us. Steven, the host responded readily to our questions. Our family enjoyed the lakeside cottage.
