Summary: My husband and I spent 6 nights at this peaceful retreat. The one floor cottage was charmingly decorated, supplied well, and had beautiful scenic views. The water on the lake was still and glistened in the sunlight. Swans and ducks and other birds frequently made visits while we enjoyed the comfortable deck. Neighbors were friendly and inviting. The kitchen was convenient to both cook a sit down meal or grab a sandwich at the counter. The large refrigerator easily handled our groceries we purchased at the nearby Meijers. We also enjoyed supplied DVD movie choices. Great getaway to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and get some rest and relax!
