"We had a lovely stay and the house was fabulous! Lots of space for a variety of needs and well maintained. We visited early spring which limited our options for being outdoors but we did manage to get in the lake for a cold plunge. I can only imagine how lovely it would be in the summer. Highly recommend staying. "

"Beautiful private cottage overlooking a lake, we couldn't have asked for a better-situated or laid out place for a family weekend. I hope to stay here again soon!"

"What an amazing property! Our hosts, Cathy & Jeff, made sure everything was taken care of so we could have the best weekend possible. Their communication was thorough, from the moment we checked in until we left this stunning LakeHouse. "

"Wish we were told that the dishwasher was not operable and that the washing machine was off limits to guests prior to booking."

"Very relaxing. I will definately return."

"Beautiful cottage and lake! "

"Good location"

"Cabin was very clean . The furniture was old but in good condition. Kitchen only had one burner but plenty of pots/pans utensils etc. After busy day I would have appreciated somewhere to sit comfortably, the futon was okay. Beds were good and clean bedding. The road was very busy and a bit weary crossing with children. The dock was fine and we caught fish! Great location to Bon echo park. Stay was good for a couple of nights. Parking tight if you have a truck. "

"So many complaints with this cottage. Biggest one is that the pool doesn't even have a pump that cleans it. Water is extremely dirty with a grime sheen seen on top of it. Upon asking Mike, he just makes excuses and false promises. Hot water tub is frigid cold and is also filthy. Looks like it's used in the pictures to attract people. Other reviewers either don't care about cleanliness or are fake. Inside the cottage, 2 out of 5 showers don't get hot water, toilet seats are broken. We saw a dead mouse in the AC shaft. Multiple doors don't lock from inside. Internet is painfully slow.Only good thing was the volleyball area and the kayaks/canoes that we could enjoy but we paid for the pool/hot tub but we could never get in to such a filthy place. "
