Super cute!

3 generations spent the weekend at this super cute well-stocked cottage with bunkhouse. Very spacious with a great layout that suited our family very well. The bunkhouse was an added feature that gave us additional space to sleep/spreadout. The private beach frontage across the street was amazing and we enjoyed the views of the dunes and sunset from the fire pit. Everything was perfect and we hope to be able to stay again!

Great little end of summer getaway

The property was adorable! The separate bunkhouse made a great stay for 2 teen boys. The house was comfortable and decently appointed. Hot water wasn’t working in the kitchen (we tried to troubleshoot the heater under the sink) which made for handwashing dishes a bit of an issue-there is no dishwasher. Water pressure in shower was abysmal, we contacted Vacasa and made them aware. Not deal breaker at all. We would rent again. The location is perfection and the lake frontage, expansive dock and fire pit with ample seating was blissful. Absolutely amazing. Huge deck at back of house was very nice. It would be even better if there was a dining table out there to enjoy meals! Overall it was a great property. Thanks for sharing your little slice of up north heaven with us!
