Summary: Very cute quiet cabin out of town. Beautiful view right on the lake. That being said- you are in the woods. There are deer and huge spiders! Not the owners fault! She was super kind and gave great ideas on things to do. The home was well equipped and super charming.

Summary: My husband and I, along with our dog, spent just under a week here in early October. The check-in process was a breeze, the kitchen was fully stocked, and the views of the lake were stunning. And we got to take in an amazing aurora display on our first night, as an added bonus. There were both steps and a meandering trail to the dock, and a spot on the east side of the shore to put in a kayak or canoe. The dock has a bench, making it a perfect spot for fishing or just a relaxing spot to get a way from it all. It is in a lake cabin neighborhood, and we did have a golden retriever roaming around the back yard on our first morning, so that it something to be aware of. This would not be the place for loud, boisterous kids and loose-roaming dogs. But, if you're fairly domesticated folks and you keep tabs on your pet, this would be a great place any time of the year.
