The cutest, coziest, little lakehouse with the BEST views!

We could not have loved our stay here more! The house is even better in person than in the pictures- recently updated and so nicely decorated. The backyard directly on the water is incredible! Gorgeous views from both inside the house's sunroom and from the yard itself. Fire pit, grill, 5 minute drive to beach and hiking- what more could you want? We are going to make this place a yearly stay and come back many times. Thank you for having us; we loved it!

Great Cottage on the Lake

We rented this cottage for two months during a relocation. House was very clean with great appliances and many amenities. Views of the lake out of the giant picture windows are amazing especially in the early mornings. Private yard with a nice patio area. Hosts were very friendly and easy to communicate with. Friendly walkable neighborhood with 2 restaraunts.
