A Nice Getaway With A Perfect View
After dealing with two hurricanes on Florida's west coast in four weeks, we needed a getaway. This was the perfect recipe. Amazing views, clean house, everything you needed for a great stay. Sunrise over the lake every morning is breathtaking. Only negative is bugs in the evening/night, which are a fact of lake life.

Great Place on the lake.
I visit the area about 2x a year. The place we normally stay was booked this time so I looked for another location and found this place. We arrived early and wanted to check the place out first. We met the cleaning lady and she was very friendly and gave us some advice and some tips for the house and the area and pointed out a couple gators and told us about the firewood for the fire and grill, unfortunately we did not have time to use it but good to know for possible next visit. She called the owners for us and they gave us the ok to put are stuff inside early since she was almost done cleaning. All 4 of us enjoyed it. Coming from Wisconsin we are always amazed by the beautiful Florida sun rises. I got up with my coffee and watched the sunrise in the screened in sun porch as it came up over the lake. Very close to downtown and nice little neighborhood. The only complaint came from the spouses that they did not have a outlet to plug in hairdryer and curling iron in the bathroom and had to take down the mirror in the living room(was put back properly) so they could get ready. More of a recommendation vs a complaint. The guys had no issues.

Nice lake view
Overall this house was great, nice and clean, wonderful lake view and perfect location. They paid attention to all the extras that you might need for your stay and went above and beyond to provide everything to make it a pleasant stay. The only thing that was missing were the kayaks that were listed under amenities which we had planned on. A few things needed to be finished like a working garbage disposal or a plug put in the sink so garbage didn't go in the drain. We couldn't get any of the blinds to work so we weren't able to close any of them. Overall we enjoyed our stay and loved the view.

Great location and view…
Cottage needs cleaning and possibly a check up from owner after cleaning lady cleans or before guests check in. There were small insects on window sills and in bathroom. I had to clean. The screened in porch was filthy: ashtray full of cigarette butts; table top with drink/food smears; floor filled with lizard droppings(?) and dust and door frame to outside filthy with dust and bugs. I swept the porch! Outside walls/window frames of cottage could use a cleaning. Dishes, glasses and silverware were not clean either. Washed everything before using.
