10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (56)
"Our dream is to one day own a home near a lake. We got a taste of it and definitely would like more of it. Cora Cottage on Fox Lake is just magical and magnificent. The moment we stepped in, we were mesmerized by the view and sounds of the water. In the house itself, you'll find yourself saying that it feels like home; clean, beautiful, and wonderful."

Everything was wonderful - from the beds to the space, to the views, to the quiet setting. Couldn't have been better! "
