Cottage has been completed redone and includes kitchen with snack bar, beautiful furnishings, TVs with cable, bedding, and all new appliances on a wooded, beautiful, 1.5-acre private setting, with 150 feet of lake frontage. Stocked with everything you need. Enjoy spectacular bay views from almost every room or from the lakeside front deck (also a screened in 3 seasons room off the master bedroom). Perfect for a family or 2 -3 couples.

We had a great time. The location of the house both on the bay and the orchards is just idyllic. The house is beautiful with every detail considered- even fresh flowers. Debbie is a fantastic host and suggested places for us to visit - all of which were great. For anyone looking for a cottage experience up north this is perfect.

This home was amazing - well stocked, well decorated, and spotlessly clean. Deb was a joy to work with and this is one of the nicest rental experiences we've ever had. We loved the beach with the fire pit and the kayaks, paddle boards, and bikes. We loved watching the birds and chipmunks and the amazing lake views.

A lot of love has gone into the house and grounds. Debbie is a wonderful, host--always helpful and accessible. Very upbeat, helpful, positive and cheerful in all her communications.
