NIce Location
Great 3br home on a dead end street. We had 6 adults and 2 under 2. The bedrooms were big to accomodate pack-n-play sleeping for the littles. Open floor plan to move about. Full kitchen with all the utensils, cookware and dishes you would need. It was nice to have the breezeway to store extra luggage, chairs and boxes. There was a toilet and shower in the basement. The yard was big and flat. Patio furniture clean and comfy. Walking distance to DC Park boat ramp and Eagles Club bar, if that is part of the vacation plan. The pier was sturdy and in great shape. This was a great place. We all agreed we would stay here again.

Family ski trip
We had the best time at the cottage! It was perfect for our family ski trip to Granite Peak- everything we needed was close by- only a 5-10 min drive to ski area- many local restaurants and grocery store nearby. The house was clean and we could see the ski area across the lake - we will be back!

Great Place to Stay
We were in town due to a family member being sick in the hospital so having the lake view at the end of the day was super calming. The beds were super comfy with nice linens. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to cook. The kids loved the large TV screens.

Great Location
The property was just as listed, maybe even better. Nicely updated on the inside. We stayed here for an ice fishing trip so the fact that it was steps away from the lake and across the street from the bait shop was perfect. Wish we caught fish but still enjoyed ourselves.
