This cottage was just beautiful. It's clean, modern and has everything we needed for a relaxing retreat away from the city. But the best thing had to be the care and consideration the owner takes into making sure their guests have everything they need. It was my best VRBO experience to date. Thank you so much.
I really loved the huge a-frame window and the natural light it provided. The surrounding property of all the beautiful trees also gave a beautiful view!! Decor was really nice and it was such a clean aesthetic. LOTS of cooking utensils and things in the kitchen for you to cook with/eat out of, which was a nice bonus! I'd def stay here again!!
Thank you for hosting my brother’s 50th birthday. It was just what he wanted, a relaxing weekend. This A Frame is so lovely, inviting and well appointed. We had a great time chatting and catching up enjoying the kitchen island as the main hangout. The outdoor space is so peaceful and private. The sauna is a bonus and was so enjoyable watching the snow fall, while being toasty warm. The provided info for activities and near by shops was a great reference. Need to return in the summer, as this was a such as beautiful place and location.Thanks again!
What an amazing property and house! This is the perfect place to escape to and enjoy quietude and comfort. Absolutely a favorite of ours and we will visit again!
My friends and I had an amazing weekend at this A-Frame cottage. The photos are accurate, the home was very clean upon arrival, and the sauna was very easy to turn on and operate.Communication with Amanda was very smooth and easy.

Great stay. Beautiful place. Amazing hosts. If I was to give one piece of advice to future guests, it would be that the kitchen is super bare bones, so if you are planning on doing some cooking up there, you need to bring literally everything save for salt, pepper and a bit of cooking oil and balsamic. It would be nice to have some sugar and basic spices. JUST a constructive criticism. Just want to reiterate this a wonderful space with fantastic hosts.
The A-Frame cottage was exactly as advertised. A beautifully decorated, quiet, and quaint property in close proximity to the boat ramp. However, be sure to book your boat rental in the spring if staying during the summer months because they rent out very fast. The kitchen had everything we needed for our 10-day vacation. The hosts were amazing from our first communication to the last. Always prompt, friendly, and helpful in regards to all of our needs. We highly recommend this property!!!
