Well Appointed & Dog Friendly

This was a great spot to spend the night with our 2 Golden Retrievers. The house had everything you would find at your own home.

The location of the property was just down the street from the lake and beach in a neighborhood where you could walk and run with views of the lake. It was a great setting. The house was clean and well furnished. It was perfect for my wife and I along with our dog. We will certainly rent again when we come to town! Wonderful property.

I loved my stay! The house was clean and well stocked. I loved the coffee options- pour over, French press, pods. The yard is super cute and big. A nice place to relax. The neighborhood was quiet and I felt safe. The beach area looked fun but I didn't have time to explore that on this trip. Next time! The owner was great with communication and responded quickly.

I felt very comfortable in this Cottage. Just about everything you need is provided. She’s very thoughtful to leave baskets so in case you forgot something there’s always something there like personal items, to use. Would definitely stay at this place again. The backyard was set up with a nice seating arrangement and a fire pit and grilling was there if you wish to do it. The nighttime lighting was very nice with solar lights.
