This is a near perfect property! We absolutely LOVED staying here. The cottages on either side were vacant the week we stayed, adding to the privacy factor. (even if they had been occupied, they are not terribly close) The cabin was super clean, beds were comfy (the main guest room bed was NOT squeaky, as mentioned in prior reviews, so that's been modified, haha!) and the screened in porch is a life saver when mosquitoes are out!!!! The fire pit is massive, and we used the grill on top of it for a few meals. Wonderful place all around!
The only reason I gave one point off is on accuracy of listing is it is not a 3 bedroom, as one bed is the fold out couch in the living room. (which is terribly uncomfortable-as all fold-outs are!) but we took one of the twin mattresses out of the bunk room and placed it on top. It does sleep 8 though, as there are 4 singles in the bunk room, a queen in the 'master' (which is not shown in the photos, but should be!) and the fold out.
A prior guest had buried their fish heads on the side of the house, and of course wildlife dug it up-so there needs to be something in place for that, as it smelled overwhelmingly of rotting fish outside when we arrived. (we are related to the fellow who owns the island in front of the property, and he disposed of ours)
Nice towels, the kitchen has everything imaginable, beds are comfy, and hosts were very responsive when contact was made. We met the housekeeper as we were leaving, and she is also very kind.
Fishing on Potato Lake is the best anywhere, and they go crazy 5-7 am and 7-9 pm. There is a GREAT dock with this property, and we caught a lot of crappie and bluegills right off the dock. There is a nice bench on it as well, which is perfect for watching the magnificent sunsets.
Eagles are EVERYWHERE, we heard loons each night, and a heron was often right across the water near the island.
Overall, it's a fantastic place. We loved it :) and are planning to book again the same time next year!
