Loved the house, feet from the water's edge, shallow at the edge of the lawn and wonderful view of the lake. Too soon in the season for docks to be in, it would have been nice to walk out over the water. Enjoyed watching the birds on the lake. Spacious deck, A great time skipping stones on the water. Keith came over, explained directions on the heat and answered any questions we had. Pam and Keith pleasant to work with, they live in the neighborhood so easily contact, but we did not need them. I gave a 4 out of 5 on cleanliness to keep the "Mr. Clean & Martha Stewarts" from being whiners. The house was very clean, tidy & comfortable, but if you want to eat off floor of the deck, expect brand new carpet or if a stray cob web sends you into a "fit", it might not be for you. But 99% of renters, including us will be very happy. We felt right at home. Some ongoing enhancements that Pam and Keith are doing did not interfere with our stay or enjoyment. It was a quiet time of year when we rented, early May. We were told that it gets busy and expectedly noisier in the summer when more families with school age children are renting. The cottage is spacious and comfortable, plenty of dishes, silverware & what you need for food prep. Big picnic table plus 4-6 outdoor chairs. I would definitely stay again. No complaints only THUMBS UP. Thanks to Pam and Keith :) Sincerely, Lynn
