A few words to describe this property are -Heavenly - Gorgeous - Awesome - Fantastic. If I could rate this a 10 star property I would. Our initial communication with the property owner through our departure exceeded our expectations. The cottage is beautiful and exceptionally clean!! We have traveled and spent time in many VRBOs across the country & this was by far the cleanest and best property in a variety of ways. The furniture (beds, chairs, couch, etc) were clean, comfortable, and all relatively new. The property was nicely decorated, the owner has done a great job (& we loved the knotty pine). Kitchen is well-stocked, & well-organized, w/everything in the cupboards (glasses, etc) being so clean. Layout of home is perfect (cozy, open & spacious) and the lower level is definitely a bonus area w/a living room, table, bedroom, & bathroom. The garage is perfect for unloading/loading your car, making it an easy process. Lake access is easy; great view of lake from living room. Loved access to kayaks, canoe, etc . Short drive to St Germaine if you need to get into town. Owner, Karen, who we were fortunate to meet is wonderful!! She is a great w/communication-responds quickly many times within minutes. It is apparent the owners take great pride in this property. This is a true gem & we felt fortunate to be able to use this property & will be back again. This property is the whole package, GREAT home, location, lake, owners, communication!
