We had a wonderful stay at cottage cheese too! The cottage was perfect for our family of four and we loved the lakefront view and being able to swim and explore the lake. Check-in was easy and everything in the property was clearly labeled, which made it easy for us to find things and get the stuff we needed. We would definitely stay here again next time we’re in town.

My husband and myself and our grown kids and grandkids enjoyed our stay so much we want to return. This cottage is the quintessential cottage experience! The cutest homey cottage to the gorgeous lake, lots of water crafts, a great bunkie, a deck with a stunning view and hosts that are very responsive and helpful. This place looks even better than the photos. Everything you need is minutes away as well.

Dan and Shelly are phenominal hosts! The cottage is absolutely adorable and so fun! Its brightly colored and very inviting. The hosts have thought of everything. The views are amazing. If you love quiet cottage life watching the birds, fishing and swimming. This place has it all. The humming birds kept me mesmorized. We laid on the dock and watched the meteor shower. We had a tour of the lake. Can't say enough about how wonderful our stay was! Thanks Shelly and Dan.
