    Was a nice quiet place other than the screen door slamming due to the wind with no way to latch it.

    Location is great, plenty of amenities.

    A little pricy for two nights. The air conditioning wasn’t good. Even with all the fans blowing it was miserably hot

    Super cute and convenient stay. It worked out great for us. Will return!

    Parking was a little difficult with not enough room to get 2 cars behind each cottage.

    The cottage was clean and smelled good. Beach towels were provided and little incidentals in case we forgot our toothbrush, toothpaste, etc

    We were in cabin 4 and between the parking area and the cabin is grass, no walkway. Grass that catches on your luggage and feet as you go from your car to the cabin. Thankfully, there was a broom that was used multiple times daily. We were also there on a hot day and the window unit didn't catch up until 14 hours later. Thankfully, there were 2 big oscillating fans. After the place cooled down we enjoyed the stay.

    We were in cabin 4 and inside the cabin it was very clean and the bed was comfy. Kelly is very responsive.

    Everything was great the space, the location, the value, the house and the cottage was so perfect they was room for everyone the sitting area outside, there was a place to barbecue outside, the grandkids had plenty of space to run and play. The firepit was a hit with grandkids did smores. The kitchen was great great space . The bathroom was a great size and we loved the" Did you forget something" shelf it was great.the cleaning lady was so nice and helpful. We are planning for next year😃 we will be trying for the 2 bedroom cottage, a 1 bedroom cottage and the whole house again for next year. This was a trail run and we loved everything.

    Only complaint was the bedroom with the double bed. Mattress was not too comfortable. This bedroom did not have the air unit, so it was rather warm.

    Lake house was adorable. Loved the vintage decor. Very cozy, lots of space for a family, felt like home. Cleanliness was superb. Would stay again.

    If you are looking for a luxury, modern, or upscale cottage this isn’t your place. This is a very basic cottage, which was fine for us bc we were last minute reservation and just looking for a place to sleep. We were more interested in checking out the lake and knew we wouldn’t be in the cottage much. The air didn’t get very cold in cottage 3. The couch is really hard. Beds were not very comfortable. However, it did the job … which was a local place to stay.

    There was a picnic table and a couple of chairs for an outside sitting area. The location was convenient for a lake on the Geneva stay.

    I didnt like the price for a 3 day stay. I paid 1,475.00 for 3 nights. And I didn't like random guests showing up looking for where they were supposed to stay on the property. I feel that issue needs to be better communicated within booking. (We had people peering into our windows and deck looking for the owner having no knowledge of where they were staying.) Also, the description said the house slept 10 and I felt like 8 was the maximum amount of people who could actually sleep comfortably there.

    I liked everything else. I loved having extra bathroom necessities and everything we may have needed while we were there. The house was really clean and well looked after. It was over all a really good weekend here.
