Summary: There is no way to describe just how lovely this property is. It has history, but is updated to be modern with all top of the line appliances. It is beautifully decorated with nods to the history of the area and the cabin itself. The bed is firm, but comfortable. The provided kayaks and SUP boards are fun to use. You wake up to Loons calling and tiny waves lapping on the rocky shore, and close the day with Loons and the most beautiful sunsets. The lake is never overly busy. If you have your own boat you can dock right there. Or you can lounge on the dock (bring your own chairs and towels) and wade out in the shallow waters when you get too warm. Jen was a perfect host providing clear communication, great recommendations, and an easy rental process.
