Beautiful location, but definitely a tight squeeze

Once we actually found the amenities listed we were able to enjoy our stay. The location is beautiful and an easy drive to Northport. I will say even for 2 people the space was incredibly limited. Would not have wanted to have any more people than we had.

Father’s Day weekend 2023

We chose this VBRO as it was close to our daughter’s in-laws cottage. We found the cottage attached to the garage behind the main residence. It was quaint and charming. A little more care to the outside seating and deck would have been nice. Spider webs and lots of goose poo. But that didn’t stop us or our dogs from enjoying the lovely view. We spent time just relaxing & enjoying the view! Thank you for the bundles of firewood. Didn’t use it but was nice if we wanted to. The inside was exactly as it looks in the pictures. If you plan on doing any cooking there really isn’t a way to do that. Basically small fridge, coffee maker or tea and toaster. It was perfectly fine, as we spent most of our time at my daughters in-laws cottage. We ate at Northport restaurants.

Comfy and Cozy

This rental is nice and cozy. Everything was very clean and as promised. If the weather had been warmer and less rainy, we would have loved to spend more time by the water.

A great secluded getaway

A great secluded getaway as the property was very peaceful and the guest house was wonderful to stay at. Would definitely stay again and would also look into renting the cottage on the property because of it being such a nice view of the lake.

Fine

The house was clean. We enjoyed the ceiling fans and heated tile bathroom floor. Wish it had a table for games inside and a view of the lake. Lake was gorgeous!! Crystal clear water. We went canoeing several times.

Peaceful cozy guest house

This is a beautiful little guest house that is clean and tidy, and trendy. We enjoyed the large size of the bedrooms separated by a fashionable bathroom - the heated floors are amazing. The property is situated right on the lake as pictured, and the deck was nice place to sit, relax and read. Parking is right out front of the guest house (which is affixed to the back of the garage). Definitely would like to return to this Northport getaway.
