Early Spring Getaway
Group of friends have been getting together for a winter/spring getaway for over 35 years. Cowdry Cottage Lake Home was prefect for our get together. Had large open gathering areas which made it perfect for socializing, eating, playing games and just hanging out.

Family Vacation
The home was awesome. Our family of 17 had plenty of room to be together for meals or play different games on those rainy days. We enjoyed the kayaks and Lilly pad and pedal boat and fishing off the dock. The house was clean and the kitchen was well equipped. The manager was responsive to our questions. Everyone had a great time and will go back again.

Beautiful home
The home was accurately described, very spacious and well equipped with all the necessary supplies. Very modern and clean home. Comfortable sleeping arrangements. My only recommendation would be to place a handrail going down to the dock, the steps can be slippery.
