    Our stay for our Anniversary was beyond wonderful, cozy cabin with everything we needed. The weather cooperated and we were able to enjoy the beauty of the Lake. Multitude of wildlife came visiting each day, something we looked forward too. Our host, Diane and Tom, exceptional, a joy to be around. We will defiantly be making a return trip soon

    A perfect place to relax and enjoy nature. We had visits from Sandhill cranes, turkeys, deer and other birds. I used their kayak for a small paddle in the lake. The cottage was clean andfurnished well with comfortable furniture, great artwork, kitchen furnishings including condiments and a comfortable bed.

    The cottages are one of our favorite getaways! The lake is refreshing, the dock provides sun and shade, the cottage is beyond comfortable. We have stayed here multiple times and it never disappoints. This year, we saw baby turkeys, baby cranes and a couple of fawns.
