    Cabin was a little more snug than I expected, and beach area would be great for little children

    Met with family. The kids really enjoyed the beach and the water. It was ideal for younger kids. The cabin is very small but was adequate for our group. The little group of cabins it was among were friendly and casual.

    I rented this unit for one day. Before calling it quits, I had to kill over 15 ladybugs. VRBO and the Host were late responding and said that bugs in the unit were to be expected. I didn't even hear from the Host the day of, only the next day I got an email. There were also huge cobwebs over the bed in the bedroom. The unit was not properly cleaned, They ignored the images with bugs. I will never use again. There are cracks in the wood panel, the unit is not insulated, just an overall disappointment. but bugs in units are not acceptable. You have been warned.

    The big show was the fall colors on the lake. Being able to open the blinds or step out the door to a beautiful crisp sunrise on the lake is worth it! Tom is a stand up guy and we wish him the best in life.

    It was a nice little place very close to the lake. The beach is small and cabin was smaller than expected and very close to the other cabins, not a lot of privacy if thats what you’re looking for this might not be the place for you. Other than that the place was great, pet friendly and me and my husband had a good stay.

    Overall we stayed and had a perfectly fine time in the off season, cooking, staying warm and enjoying a quaint, quiet experience as a small family-which is exactly what we were looking for.
