Our stay at this modern cottage was pure bliss. Set by a tranquil lake, with a sparkling pool and hot tub, it was the perfect getaway for our girls’ trip. The cottage was immaculate, newly renovated, and so easy to navigate. The separate studio apartment, where the dog stayed with his owner, gave us a perfect private retreat. Everything was just wonderful—peaceful, clean, and unforgettable.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay here! The house is exactly as described, and perfectly clean. The host provides timely replies. There’s so much sunlight in the main room! The beds are extremely comfortable. We loved unwinding from our busy days in the hot tub and cool pool. The supplied coffee and creamer selection was a convenient bonus. Lots of restaurants and a superstore nearby for any meals and supplies you need. Highly recommend!
