The cottage was spacious and has a beautiful view of the lake from the open dining/living room area. We saw lots of wildlife, including a deer who visited us often, nibbling on greens near the cabin—my daughters named her “Petunia”. All of the sheets, blankets, and towels provided were freshly washed and ready! The kitchen has most everything you need. The kayaks were a big hit with my kids. Village of Westport is about 15 minutes away and is a beautiful! We enjoyed our stay very much.

Casey was very good to respond quickly to all the questions. The water near the dock is weedy. We still enjoyed the swim and the kids loved to jump from the dock. The 2 kayaks, the canoe and the row boat were fun to paddle since the water is calm near the cottage. The temperature of the water at the cottage was variable. With children, we needed to be careful.

We had a wonderful week at Cook’s Chalet. The kids enjoyed exploring the property and even saw a deer while out for a walk. The cottage was comfortable and clean. We enjoyed visiting the town of Westport several times for ice cream, a winery lunch and a trip to the beach. We even enjoyed a night of live music at The Cove. It was the perfect mix of quiet time by the lake and exploring a new (to us) town.

We spent a wonderful week at the cottage with our two kids, aged 10 and 12. They enjoyed the water and equipment available to use. Ping pong table was a nice bonus! The cottage was very comfortable for the 4 of us and just what we expected from the listing. Westport is close by and easy to access for anything needed.
