The kitchen was well equipped, parking was great, we like being off the road, we didn't feel like we had to take fishing equipment in. We had a dining table light go out, texting with the host he got it straightened out.

Great getaway spot

We loved our stay here. It is such a comfortable cottage. We stayed here because our daughter was playing in a golf tournament at Lake Russell State Park and this could not have been more convenient. It was a wonderful home away from home!

Just what we needed

The check in was smooth as butter and the house is super cute. The kids had a wonderful time and watching Bambi and his family graze in the mornings was a plus! The owners were easy to talk to and everything was just what we needed. Will definitely stay again!
