As campers - we enjoyed the primitive cabin feel with some of the kitchen amenities. Amazingly clean given the age and location. Fun to use the boats and explore the island. Unique Stay!

Gorgeous spot
An adorable waterfront cottage, a step out to the beach and dock, kayaks and bikes to borrow- and stocked up with firewood. My kids loved the “kids clubhouse” as they named it- toys, books and movies. My whole family loved this spot- a beautiful place, we would come every year if we could.

What an amazing and unique spot. Extremely hospitable hosts with everything you need for a good time at the cottage is right at your finger tips. Enjoyed sitting in the beach having a fire under the stars after exploring the numerous trails and beaches on the property. Highly recommended, would stay here again in a heart beat.
