Lakefront Cottage with Gorgeous Sunsets
Great cottage so close to the water you can fish right off the deck, bring your boat right up to the dock and drive it all over the chain of lakes and out to dinner. Piers stay in until end of October usually. Endless things to do on the chain, tons of restaurants, sand bars, fishing, bars, boats, etc. Then watch the sunset at the beach right outside your door before retreating for the night into the cottage. The home has everything you need in a cozy package. Plus it has a fenced in yard with a fire pit to enjoy the evenings. The yard is shared with myself, and a few other tenants but its yours to use.
Make yourself comfortable in this cottage, featuring a kitchenette with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Perfect spot, just like advertised
Three adults and a little dog, we loved the view and all the outdoor seats. The beds were comfortable too. More hot water, or at least some kind of warning about the hot water being limited would have been nice.

Cozy with a nice view to relax
I went by myself to decompress from work so cant speak to activities but for my purpose it was a great fit. Cozy little place with a nice yard and a very relaxing view being right on the lake. Will revisit again when I need another few days away from stress.
