We were thrilled with this property! I LOVE the floorplan of this home/cottage. It had plenty of space for the 3 of us. We caught fish every single time we went out! The pontoon was a blast! We anchored in the middle of the lake and swam from it. We brought our 16' fishing boat, and it fit perfectly on the other side of the dock. We also brought kayaks, and 3 or 4 mornings, I was out on the glassy water at 6:30 with my camera, hoping to capture the eagles or loons before the rest of the world woke up. I captured beautiful photos of fish, eagles, loons, turtles, chipmunks, ducks, and bees on flowers.
We are always concerned that the tap/drinking water will taste bad at the cottages we stay at, but OH MY GOSH... the tap water here is DELICIOUS! So so good! I drank so much water this week, and filled my bottle before we left yesterday!
Hmmm. What else... The nights were cool and breezy, the days warm and lazy- but not too warm. We had everything we needed at this beautiful cottage, and Mike is one of the best hosts we've ever rented from. We'd highly recommend renting this cottage, and we hope to again in the future! It has all the 'creature comforts' , and we felt more like we were housesitting than renting a cottage. We enjoyed the whole house stereo system- playing classical, loon calls, and soft jazz while we puttered about cooking and playing cards.
Rent it. You won't regret it.
