Cute cabin, beds were big for our teenagers. The cabin is close to Bear mountain. We enjoyed our coupon for rentals to snowboard. Thank you!

Lake Cottage is an older property. It was clean, plenty of towels, water was hot. It was very disappointing that the only bathroom was downstairs. A window in the master bedroom would open but wouldn't remain open. The GCFI outlet in the bathroom did not work and one of the outlets in the master bedroom was loose.

Lake Cottage Review
The folks at Cool Cabins were wonderful. The cabin was well supplied and the beds and furniture are comfortable,but this particular cabin needs to be retired from your portfolio. It's old and tired. One of the windows in the bedroom over the fireplace wouldn't stay up, the outlets in the bathroom aren't working, one of the burners on the stove wouldn't light and two of the burner control knobs are falling off. The latch and lock on the front door need to be replaced.

The cabin was smaller than expected. A little dusty and some of the blinds were broken.
As soon as we got there almost every smoke detector was beeping because of dead battery. I couldn't take the battery out because they are sealed units. The yard was over grown with weeds. Definitely didn't look like the pictures. I would not recommend this house. The owners don't do any up keep.
Understanding that this cabin was older, I didn’t have unreasonable expectations. I was very disappointed upon check in when we had no toilet paper and the holder was broken off and hanging on the back door. The advertised hot tub was non functional, cold and absolutely filthy. The outdoor furniture and yard were old and unkept. The WiFi name and password were incorrect and my children were unable to log into their school website to attend school the following morning after we arrived. The neighborhood was scary- witnessed a police officer attempting to gain access into a house directly across the street from us which was filled with trash all over the front lawn. After they left, a man was seen acting as he was intoxicated pacing around the property responding to internal stimuli. At that point I feared for the safety of my children being anywhere but inside of the rental. I am extremely disappointed with what I was presented to me and what I paid for- I expected so much better and would never recommend this property to anyone.
I stayed here with my three kids. There was plenty of room. Heat worked well. There were some board games but most were missing pieces. Overall a nice place
