Right when we pulled up and walked in I felt like I had walked into a Nicholas Sparks novel!!! The sun shone brightly through the extravagant windows, that looked out upon the magnificent view of the lake. The cottage filled the smell of coffee and bacon. I took my breakfast on the back deck. Even though it was going to be a hot day the breeze from the lake was refreshing. I looked up expecting to see the local boat builder come around the corner….. and then “Mom!!!!!“ Let’s go paddle boating, let’s go fishing, let’s go kayaking!” Shook me out of my daydream LOL!!! There was cornhole, there was volleyball, there was badminton. After dinner they wore us out with the board games too! This cottage and its host really did go above and beyond for a wonderful stay. So, whether you are looking for a romantic Nicholas Sparks type getaway, or a family fun filled vacation, this Cottage does not disappoint! We can not wait to come back for more memories!
