Great for families looking to get away from it all, this lakefront gem is more than ready to assist in making the best memories! Relaxation won't be hard to find, as you will have stunning views of the sunrise and sunset from your covered porch while you sip a morning coffee or evening glass of wine. The interior of this getaway boasts all of the rustic touches of a classic cabin including exposed ceilings and quaint decor, yet you will have all of the modern comforts as well including free WiFi and a flatscreen TV to keep up with favorite shows. Plus, you will have a fully equipped kitchen and gas grill at your fingertips to whip up tasty meals after full days on the lake.
When it comes to outdoor activities, you are in luck with this location, as you can take your pick between a plethora of fun activities! Take the kayaks and launch off of the private dock to paddle in the sunshine. If you are wanting to relax a bit more, chill on the pebble beach as the water laps over your toes or swing in the summer breeze as you kick back in the hammock. Don't forget to gather at the firepit as the stars come out to reminisce about the fun that was had each day!

The view was beautiful and the house was well equipped. The screens need attention along with a few other minor things. Very fun space. We would definitely rent again.

Our family stayed during the 2024 Eclipse, and we enjoyed an amazing experience in a beautiful location!
Pros: excellent location right on the lake, well-stocked kitchen with relatively sharp knives (unusual for a rental!), great communication with the local agent, easy check-in and check-out. It was actually a bigger space than it looked like in the photos online.
Cons: The plumbing is a little funky - the sink and downstairs toilet gurgles when you flush the upstairs toilet. The downstairs toilet was not flushing properly so we didn't use it much. I told the agent it wasn't an urgent issue and we didn't stay long enough to need a fix. There was an RO system for drinking water but it was not turned on (and you can tell it hadn't been turned on in awhile). The information binder was buried in the cabinet and when we found it halfway through our stay it said not to drink the well water - but oh well, we already were! There were some conflicting check-out instructions, like whether or not to strip the beds. The cleaners did a great job cleaning after the previous renters, but you could tell the place could use a real deep cleaning (for example, the heater vents were pretty filthy and would blow dust out when the heat kicked on). Overall these were somewhat minor annoyances for us, so we were still satisfied with the overall experience.
I would still recommend this as a comfortable, lakeside cabin to enjoy a family vacation!

Nice place, listing was mostly accurate, quiet and peaceful (though I was late in the season). Only issues were the somewhat "wonky" thermostat and the constant gurgling of the kitchen sink drain.
10.0
The kitchen was well stocked, and the rooms were perfect. We appreciated the attention to detail in amenities as well.
Stars at night, sunsets, and even the gentle rain that fell didn't hamper our stay. We spent most of our time in the enclosed sunroom. It was quiet, secluded, and precisely what we sought during our stay.

The house is in a great location right on the lake. Upon arrival, the house was very clean. There was a bouquet of fresh flowers in a vase on the kitchen table which was a lovely welcoming touch.
Shortly after being there, we noticed that the trash bin outside had not been emptied and was full. The management company sent us a text to confirm that we were able to get into the house. We notified them about the trash and within the hour, someone was at the house emptying it. The communication with the management company was excellent and they were very responsive.
I highly recommend staying here. We will be back!

Beautiful cabin, great view. The glassed in porch made a perfect place to watch the sunset. The cabin was larger than expected. We felt welcome and comfortable.
The only negative were the directions .

We really enjoyed our stay and the accomodations were excellent. Upon arrival we had a problem with finding the keypad, but a local helped us out. We didn't have any communication with the property manager, so I could not rate it.

Ridge view cottage review
Great older well kept Cottage. Very clean and comfortable. Had everything we needed for a couple of late October nights of relaxing after hiking at nearby Peaks-Kenny State Park. Loved the upstairs shower, the porches, and the hot air furnace.
