This was a charming, fully modernized cottage on the waterfront with thoughtful nods to its history. A perfect, cozy place to relax and enjoy beautiful views, with easy access to the nearby town and restaurants if you must escape! Great for a getaway.

A truly serene waterfront retreat. The calm water views, mature trees, private beach access, and comfortable outdoor seating create the perfect setting to relax and enjoy the beauty of the lake. A wonderful place to unwind and take in the scenery.

We had a great 2-night stay at the cottage, it was the perfect size and clean. The view of the water and the porch were perfect for the two of us.

This was a very nice escape for a couple's weekend.The cottage is very well equipped, and we could see all the attention to detail the hosts poured into this space.The waterfront view was breathtaking. The private beach and waterfront deck area are wonderful. A great value for the price!The only complaint is that there are no window treatments in the common areas (kitchen, living room) so at night it feels to be a bit of a "fishbowl."Even so, we would love to come back again someday.

This place was lovely and we appreciated the water, coffee, cream and all the supplies we needed. We were a bit disappointed that the fireplace wasn’t available for use as the weather was cool, cloudy and windy. Would love to stay again on a warmer weekend. Thank you for such a well appointed place!
