Stayed Oct 2, 2025Clean, pet friendly, and close to downtown. Very quiet inside (road noise outside). Enjoyed walking around the neighborhood.

Stayed Aug 25, 2025Very musty smelling on arrival. Several rug mats were dirty and old, plus one of the comforters was old and very used looking. We do realize pets were allowed, we did not bring ours. Perhaps, that is why these used items have not been replaced. Also there was no curtain or shade on the full glass doors. We also did not realize there was a downstairs to this cabin , and not just our floor of thecabin.

Stayed Jul 30, 2025We stayed here with our two younger daughters for several nights in late July and really enjoyed it. You have two porches and access to a private dock where we enjoyed sitting in the evenings, which can really make the experience.As described, it is a basement apartment with a private entrance, and it is nicely finished. As others have noted it is small -- but if you're plan is to spend most of your time out elsewhere (as ours was), it is perfectly adequate, even with four travelers, and especially if you make use of the outdoor spaces. It rained a couple of the days while we were there, and on cloudy days it felt like it lacked natural light, but that shouldn't be surprising for a basement apartment, and we felt like was appropriately reflected in pricing compared to the rest of the area.Overall, we thought the apartment was a good value, especially since it is just minutes outside of town. the owners were communicative and easy to work with. We'd certainly consider staying again.

Stayed Jul 18, 2024Basement needs pest control. Killed 6 large spiders, and two insanely huge grasshopper like bugs. We were also unable to get the basement cool enough to have a decent night's sleep. The electric outlet by the master bed does not work. The glass light cover above the bed fell on us while we slept, and the dead bugs that were trapped in it were then on the covers. We had to get up in the middle of the night to clean this, Lastly, there was no wine opener. We had to go back out to purchase one after getting our groceries.

Stayed Jul 1, 2024My family of 3 had a wonderful time. The apartment was cute, well appointed and very clean. It is a basement apartment so it’s a little dark but we spent most of our time outside so that wasn’t really an issue for us. Mirror Lake was great for canoeing. The location, on a lake, near Highlands can’t be beat! The owners stayed in the house above us our entire week long stay. They were very quiet and extremely respectful of our space. Definitely would rent again!

Stayed Oct 19, 2023Out stay was very nice. The place is well appointed and well situated for a quiet time, but not too far from town. Enjoyed watching the squirrels gather hickory nuts for winter.

Stayed Oct 15, 2023Key code is very difficult. My husband could get it to work after 5 or 6 times. I never could get it to work. Description said bungalow which is a small home. Description wrong it is an apartment several floors under. Too many steps for carrying things down. Too dark. Maybe put in a window over the sofa. Kind of funny I had lights on everywhere because I like light. I put a navy blue top on instead of black. I put a sweater on and didn’t notice till we got away from the house. The parking is not adequate. We didn’t feel it was safe in the tiny spot. On the plus side everything was nice and new. The heating is inadequate. I finally put it up to 78 but we were still chilly. The tv worked great. We still enjoyed our stay.

Stayed Aug 28, 2023Nice, clean and quiet. Many steps to navigate from the parking spot to the access door and many to the dock. Unusually high step to get into the bathtub/shower. It’s a very deep tub and the foundation is raised 2 or 3 inches. This may affect people older or those physical challenged. The automatic coded lock on the door is difficult to see the numbers until the first number is entered, then it will light up. Nice dock enabled me to launch my inflatable kayak and enjoy the lake. Also be aware of the challenging narrow roads which are common in this area. Also, only one parking spot for this lower apartment. Overall positive stay and the owner was available to answer questions.
