Cozy Little Cottage
We loved our stay at this cozy little cottage. The host was wonderful and easy to communicate with. Everything one needs, plus fun extra items, were available. They even left us a welcome gift. And we loved that we could bring our Labrador with us as she is part of the family :) Would absolutely book again! Thank you for the kind and thoughtful hospitality!

Indian Lake
We needed a place that allowed our pup. They not only allowed her, they had dog bowls, a tennis ball and poop bags for her. Made the visit easy. Great touches throughout the cottage. Owners were so helpful as we planned our trip. We will be back.

Adorable cottage
The cottage was clean with a well appointed style reflecting lake life. It was perfect for my stay with my dog. I had forgotten my dogs water bowl and I was delighted to find a set of dog bowls that was provided for our use. Another huge bonus was the ceiling fans in every room. Having the lake within walking distance was great for walking my dog.

Wonderful weekend!
This was a great spot to spend time with friends! The cottage is small but the furniture and decorations are well thought out to make use of the space. It was clean and we loved being a short walk to the water!

Weekend Trip
Seldom Inn was exactly the home base we needed as we were visiting over an extended weekend. The cottage was cute, cozy, and clean, and the communication with the host was great. Although it’s not very big, the space was completely maximized and stocked with supplies to accommodate our family. It was lovely … and, we would stay again.

Very clean and well equipped house. Short walk to the new brewery and quick drive to town if you need anything. Owner was very nice to communicate with. Boat slip is out of the way of the waves which is nice.
