We wanted a pet friendly "home away from home" and we certainly found it. The cottage is very nicely appointed inside and has pretty much everything you could want! We only used the master bed and although it is quite a soft mattress it is very comfortable and great pillows (which we never find!) We didn't bring our fishing gear but you couldn't really fish from the back it is too weedy, but it is not far to fishing spots. There were nice places to walk our dog right from the cottage. We did feed the birds and were curious to see the variety in the yard, they emptied the feeders in one day! We went to Sullivan's for dinner one night, not a bad local supper club. We would like to thank Julie and her family for sharing their cottage with us!

We thought a cottage would we a home with a foundation, and were a little surprised to find it as a trailer. But once we went inside it was beautiful. The master was a little tight, but the kids room was perfect.

The house was beautiful and very clean. Plenty of space for a family to spend time together. We really enjoyed all the colorful birds in the feeders and saw a lot of other lake wildlife.....frogs and turtles.

We wanted to take our dog on his first vacation and this was the perfect place! The yard is huge and has a nice view onto the lake. There are plenty of seating options outside. Enjoy your time in the sun, or there are plenty of shaded areas in the yard from the many trees. We enjoyed morning coffee, afternoon relaxation and evening beers and a bluetooth speaker and never tired of the serene surroundings. The property is on a very quiet road and we had very few neighbors during our week, so it was very peaceful. We agree with some of the other reviews, that a dock/pier or direct lake access for sitting or fishing would be a huge plus, but it's not a dealbreaker. Since we brought our dog, we planned to cook most dinners there and I brought many items that were not needed. The house provided everything we needed to cook and store food for the week. We loved utilizing the kitchen table that offers a great view of the beautiful surroundings. The pictures in the website are all accurate. A huge perk was being so close to Perrot State Park, where we brought our dog 3 of our 6 days. It is absolutely beautiful. The little town is so cute & friendly to stop for a cocktail or ice cream and beautiful views of the Mississippi. One of the nights we had thunderstorms & it was so nice to have a nice, big tv to watch movies, which is rare at rentals. We had amazing communication with our host before and during our stay & she truly cared about our comfort and needs.
