Great location and beautiful setting. Overall very happy with stay and cottage. Lots of room. Two suggestions to make better for future renters: 1) upstairs deck should have sides wire or cable lines also, for childrens safety', and 2) A/C would have definitely been a plus, the weather during the week was very humid so sleeping upstairs was a little uncomfortable. Thank you.

Beautiful Lakeside Stay

We truly can say we absolutely loved this place. We had eight in the group and there was tons of room! The beach area and dock were great for the kids as well as the adults. You wont find a better view than sitting on the massive porch that wraps the house. Jim was an excellent host. I cant say enough good things!! There is a cool little kayak to use, some life jackets and floating toys, we also brought 4 SUPs of our own. Thanks Jim you have a beautiful place here!!

Our stay was amazing. The house is beautiful, well equipped, spacious, clean. Ideal to enjoy summer days in the beach, especially with small kids. For sure we’ll be back. Appreciate fast response and good communication with owner.

Beautiful Lakeside Cottage

We really enjoyed our 4 day stay at this cottage. The place was clean and modern, and had a well stocked kitchen for cooking. A great view of the lake with lots of outdoor seating to take in the scenery. The location was perfect for our needs. Close to the city for amenities, but far enough away to give the cottage feel and to be a good base for exploring the beautiful area around Lake Superior.

Good place, soon to be great I'm sure

Newly remodeled and at first glance the place was great, although upon closer look there was a lot unfinished, a lot of smaller things inoperable. Guessing these are the final touches to the remodel. No hanging cabinets in the kitchen, several lights and outlets not working, hose bib and ice maker not connected. None of which were critical to the stay, just annoyances and/or inconveniences. Overall the place was very good, perfectly positioned on the lake and very private. Great open spaces, high ceilings, and very clean. Communication with the owner was great. He responds immediately. Watch out for the trip hazard on the dock, a small metal pole coming up about 6 inches. We put a bucket over it after my daughter tripped and fell off the dock. .
