Absolutely spectacular lake and perfect cottage
The description for this place is very under-stated -- it's really a beautiful place. The lake is amazing water, nice and sandy shore with beautiful swimming. There aren't that many cottages on the lake and not many of them are visible from this property -- so you get the feeling that it's a private lake. It's great for a nice canoe paddle and the view from the living room bay window is spectacular. One of the big challenges was to decide where to sit with morning coffee, on the patio, in the kitchen nook, out on the dock, in the den -- too many options! It =is= an older cottage and it's definitely a cottage, not a finished home -- but it's lovingly decorated, very clean, and completely stocked with all of the living essentials. I heartily recommend this place.

Great quite lake property
We had a great stay at this cottage. It was nice and the lake was private and quite. We had great fun playing in the water and fishing. The cottage has all the basic necessities like dishes and garbage bags and laundry which was great. The only thing that made me slightly uncomfortable was there was a ouijie board inside the “games armour” but I’m a little sensitive to things like that! Overall it was a great family spot and really close to downtown Huntsville!

Lovely spot
This was our second time visiting this cottage. Very peaceful spot, cozy, rustic and well-equipped. Great swimming area for young kids and adults alike and proximity to town is very convenient. Owners are friendly and responsive.

Lovely getaway from the city
So quiet and peaceful. Well equipped kitchen had everything we needed. Much appreciated the canoe, firepit and up-graded barbecue. Owner was very responsive when we had a small issue which was rectified right away. Swimming was great. Saw deer, ducks, loons and heron. Thanks for a great stay.

Location, location, location!!
What an incredible spot this was for a relaxing family vacation. Small, quiet lake, perfect for canoeing and kayaking or just lounging on the deck. We had everything we needed and the place was spotless. Area was great for walks and we were lucky enough to see deer on our first day! Communication was easy and owners were extremely helpful. Will definitely be back.

A great and restful week away
The cottage was nicely supplied with the necessary daily items needed for a convenient stay. Great to have firewood to use, the canoe and the dishwasher! The week we were there was a scorcher and we were very thankful to have the supply of fans in every room. Note that the DVD player is not Blue Ray, but worked fine for the older DVD's we took. Would be good to have info about drinking water in the listing. Thanks for a great week.

Quiet spot, perfect for young family
Cathy's place was clean, cozy, and well-equipped. The location was very quiet (only saw a motorboat one day out of seven) and neighbours were quiet but friendly. It was really nice not to have WiFi or cable! Our kids (4 and 7) loved the beach and shallow water entry. We got a lot of use out of the canoe and saw painted turtles, ducks, ospreys, a loon, and 2 fawns. The proximity to town was convenient. We hope to return next year as this place was exactly what we were looking for.
