First, want to mention Craig was wonderful through booking and answering any questions; however, when we arrived, it did look like nobody had cleaned the place since last summer or fall. There were dozens and dozens of bugs in the door and window tracks, spider webs in corners, stink bugs or dead lady bugs were under bed linens and pillows. The shower was also quite grimy with soap scum and dirt. The biggest concern of ours was the neighbors dogs, both the next door neighbor and the neighbor 2 houses down. All 3 dogs of their dogs would continually come into the hosts yard and poop, pee, growl, bark, come up on the deck. The owners of the two neighboring houses were completely oblivious to their aggressive dogs roaming around- even though the one time the neighbor couldn’t even get her dog back to her own yard. It was quite a stressful stay in that manner considering we have a young toddler and a very gentle, harmless senior dog. Felt like this place had so much opportunity but didn’t live up. Can add photos of the place with time stamps to when we checked in to show cleanliness issues.

Great communication from Craig! Peaceful location.

my stay was comfortable, relaxing and I enjoyed every moment of it. Was able to do some fishing. Caught a bullhead and a perch. Made up my mind that I must build a house on my lake lot property.

Very nice stay area was very pretty and the trail close by was also nice!

The Ivy Cottage was a perfect quiet place to unwind for our stay. No TV (but good internet, it is 2023 afterall) so we could read and enjoy the lake. The cabin is small and cozy but enough space to relax and not feel on top of one another. The town of Zimmerman has all the ammenities you need, couple of decent restaurants and a bowling alley. Great for a quiet getaway!

Craig's cabin is very cute and cozy. We had a great time.

The cabin has a great mix of old charm and modern updates. We enjoyed the lake view, especially from the screened in porch during rainy weather.

Terrific owners, very helpful and flexible. This place is just what we needed !!!! We will be back!!!
