Great Lakefront Getaway
The property was excellent for our family. It was convenient to many hikes, the stargazing on the dock was wonderful, and our children enjoyed the swingset.

Peaceful lake front getaway
5 of us stayed for a weekend and had a great time! The property manager was amazing and ensured all needs were met and answered any questions we had. The lake was so peaceful, and paired with the dock made the perfect place to sit out and enjoy the sun and views.

Calma retreat , is the best place we've stayed
This rental was amazing. It was exactly what we were looking for. My wife and children look forward to our yearly trips up to the Peninsula , and so far, we all agree this was our favourite place to stay. It was clean , quite and right on the water front. The location is perfect , its close to everything the Peninsula has to offer, or if you're like me, you can just relax on the dock and enjoy the beauty of Miller Lake. One thing that MUST be said. My wife and I usually have problems sleeping in places that aren't our home. But the beds were SO comfortable ( and didn't squeak ) that we both slept like babies. I cannot reccomend this cottage more. We will be coming back again.

Great cottage and location!
We loved the cottage and the location, near the end of the lake looking across at the undeveloped part of the lake. It was definitely one of the best cottages that we have stayed in. Highly recommended.
