Beautiful spot for a family cottage
Great, quiet spot on a gorgeous lake. The cottage had everything we needed to cook, bbq, relax, and swim. The view from the dining area can't be beat. The bunkie is cute and convenient for people in the same party who want some privacy.

Perfect calm and charming gateway!
We were amazed by the proximity to the Lake, the trendy decor and the relaxing atmosphere ! You are literally on the lake. Cooking from the amazing gas stove looking out the window, nothing more relaxing. The main bedroom is so well put together with a lot of windows and a view on the lake. We spent most of our time on the deck looking at the lake and the Loons 💜! This is a perfect gateway for a relaxing experience. The decor is charming. Felt like a Ace Hotel designed the cottage. Thanks to the host for this amazing time.

Great property
Stayed Aug 2022. Great property, very clean and had everything you needed in terms of amenities. Hosts were super responsive and accommodating, great to deal with. We really enjoyed the water toys (paddle boat, paddle board and the floating pad). The cottage is well maintained and you can tell the owners take pride in it. Same with the guest cottage. We will definitely consider booking again in the future!!
