Cozy Getaway
Perfect cozy cottage for a group of 4 or 5. We swam off the dock, went fishing and kayaking during the day, and had a nice campfire in the evenings. Located on a beautiful lake!! Highly recommend!

Family getaway
We had an amazing time at The Hideaway this week. Kids went swimming and fishing all day off the dock. Kitchen had everything we needed. Bathroom was clean with a spacious shower. There's a tv that we never used because it was so beautiful outside but wifi worked well. Just a perfect family getway in a beautiful setting.

Great Place
This cottage was tucked away in the woods by the river, with a great view. Quiet and peaceful. The hosts were very accommodating and helpful. Very pleasant and friendly people. Would definitely go back again. Loved that there was a row boat available for each cottage to use.
