Very nice cottage, lovely lake, host very attentive, but for some reason the WiFi didn’t work, but we were on vacation so it helped us disconnect!

Cozy Cabin

This lovely cabin was just right for 2 couples going to the Chain O' Lakes Blues Festival. We enjoyed staying there very much.

Quiet and cozy

Very sweet owner. When we pulled up, I was concerned about the condition of the inside, but after we walked in, we were pleasantly surprised. The cabin was clean and cozy. Plenty of room for our family when we needed to be inside. *only negative, which could have been my fault for not being more thorough while researching lake homes, we did not realize it was a town house set up. We were expecting to be in an actual cabin. Either way, everything worked out and we had a nice time.

Nice Cottage

We had a very nice stay with a great view of the lake. They had a lot of nice chairs on the pier and outside the back door for sitting outside. Our dogs spent endless hours hunting fish and frogs on the pier and shoreline. There was a good sandy area for kids to play in and walk around in the water without hurting your feet. We even found a good spot for our tandem kayak, so we could just jump into it everyday and go kayaking. We had several awesome resturuants and state park within 10-15 minutes away. We really enjoyed our stay.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Cabin was comfortable, clean, updated and tastefully decorated without losing any rustic charm. Fantastic view of the lake only a few steps from our back porch. Hope to be back next year to watch some more amazing sunrises!
