Great location and a lovely cottage. Lots of games and puzzles to keep us busy on a rainy afternoon. This was a great house that was extremely dog friendly. It is hard to find such a nice option that is both dog-friendly and beautifully appointed. We would definitely recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at this VRBO. My family really enjoyed ourselves and it was very dog friendly. Sue was quick to respond to any questions and address any needs. I only scored 4 on cleanliness because the front porch and back patio could use a scrubbing, and maybe some flowers to add some color. I would have liked to have a better view of Clam Lake so that is why I only gave it 4 stars for location. But access to Dockside and pontoon rentals was super convenient. And a quick drive to access Torch Lake swimming. I would also recommend some new bed sheets that are not jersey knit. They were a little warm for sleeping in for July. Overall we had a wonderful stay and I would recommend this property.
