A great fall get away.
Very nice. Cabin was clean and overlooked the lake. The lake was clear. But not any fish close to dock. But did see an otter swimming around. Saw a lot of Minnows next to dock. We had a great time.

Beautiful location
The location is Lovely, but it does appear that the view could be obstructed if the camper sites were filled, the cabin had a lot spiderwebs, otherwise very clean. It had everything you would need if you were cooking at the cabin. It got a bit chilly and the fireplace didn’t want to kick on it appears as if someone turned the gas valve off not sure if that was the owner of person who was before us. We’d love to stay again.

Very clean
The property was just as it was listed except there was a step down into each bedroom which wasn't explained anywhere and my elderly mother had to sleep on the futon which wasn't ideal. It was very clean and the view of the lake was exceptional. We were in the area for a wedding but it would be a wonderful vacation spot.
