The cottage is charming and cozy, and the outdoor shower is wonderful. The location is indeed peaceful and private. Unfortunately, enjoyment of our stay was diminished by broken equipment and delayed communication from the owners. We were notified last minute that the chairs at the fire pit and the umbrella at the outdoor table were broken and the owners would not be replacing them this season. There was no mention in the listing that the cabin is not heated, nor instructions on how to use the fireplace. A house manual was reported to have been uploaded, but it was not. I emailed pertinent questions on day 2 of our weeklong stay, but received no response until days later, several hours prior to checkout with an apology that stated they had simply been too busy to respond.

Our stay at Lake Williams was exactly what we were seeking for our 25th wedding anniversary - a lake house experience reminiscent of our childhood! We stayed outside all day long enjoying all that the property had to offer - time out of the hot July sun in the boathouse relaxing/reading on the comfortable couch (good lake breeze), grilling each night on the gas Weber grill, an evening fire in the solo stove and showering in the fantastic outdoor shower, enjoying sunset on the dock, watching the boaters, and a very professional fire work show on July 5th across the lake. A lovely stay.
