Relaxing

This is a nice place to stay that is not too far from home, but far enough for it to feel like you’re on a weekend getaway. Beautiful location that has access to calm and relaxing weekend or you’re up for some more active weekend getaway like fishing, swimming and kayaking

I had a very restful stay here, enjoyed the calming view of the lake and watching the sunset from the porch. I heard at least one frog calling at night, and enjoyed the birdsong. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with plenty of dishes, pots and pans. I didn't use the upstairs level, but it was a great set up with bunk beds on one side and also a bed on the opposite side.

A peaceful trip on a beautiful spto

This is a lovely property in a fantastic position and just what we needed for a weekend break from New York. The weather meant we didn’t really get a chance to use the outdoor areas as much as we’d hoped but we had everything we needed indoors. Michael responded really quickly to any questions we had and check-in and check-out were very easy. We’d highly recommend this cottage
