Please note that this is a Shared Property. The house, deck, and small dock directly in front of the Bungalow are Private and for your exclusive use only. There is a Waterfront Cottage located ~ 50 feet from the bungalow. The cottage is not included in your rental and we ask that if someone happens to be occupying the cottage during your stay that you do not block their vehicle. Please respect their privacy (and we absolutely ask the same of them). This allows for a quite experience for guests separate from one another, or works great pairing families who want to stay in both places and enjoy lake time together! There is a fire pit located near the water that is a shared area, accessible for either home:-) Enjoy! For guest convenience, we are also happy to provide shared access to laundry facilities as needed. The washer and dryer are located in a separate small building adjacent to both the cottage and the bungalow.
Regarding pets: We know how important it is to travel with your fur family. We are happy to accommodate, and simply ask that you check for pre-approval and count them as an "extra guest" at a fee of $25 per pet.
The Bungalow is located in a rural area and a vehicle will be necessary to access any local amenities. There is parking space conveniently located directly behind the Bungalow.
The cabin shares a parking area with our other listing, "Unique Waterfront Cottage". The homes are about 50 feet from one another. This still allows for a quite experience for guests separate from one another, or works great if families want to combine. There is a fire pit near the water that is a shared area, accessible for either home. Water access is limited due to vegetation in front of the Bungalow (please see the picture of the dock for visual of the lily pads that are present during Spring and Summer)
