Clean cottage and great deck and firepit area looking out at the water. Very relaxing. Fenced in dog area was nice to let dog out for a quick pee. Plenty of room for 5-6 adults to sit in the family room and kitchen area for making breakfast. The deck area seats 8 for dinner and drinks. Room for lawn games by the fire pit too. This cottage uses well water, not a problem as there is filtered water at the sink. Just bring extra water if you prefer.

We had a wonderful 3 night stay before the busy school year started. Our only issue was the A/C was off when we arrived so the house was at 84 and took hours to cool down. We rented the pontoon and found some fun fishing spots on the river. Loved seeing the flowering lily pads and swans. Even took advantage of docking the boat and having dinner at one of the restaurants recommended.

Great home with a beautiful view! Great kitchen and comfy furniture in the living room area. The outdoor patio is lovely and the host was very responsive. Friendly neighbors. The only issue was the pontoon is very tricky to get onto the lift with a breeze out of the south. The dock prevents one accounting for the wind from angling into the lift. Friendly neighbor was also very helpful in docking the boat!
