Great place to spend time with family.
Spent weekend there with my best friend and his two seven year old daughters. We were even able to bring our dogs along. Property was well stocked with all the things we needed (not food, obviously). We had a great time just hanging out and fishing off the dock. Only drawback was water was too mucky to swim on that side of the lake the weekend we went.

It was good I was a little disappointed about the fire pit. When we got there it was in ok shape but once we had a fire going it fell apart. The house was decent to stay in. The pictures looked better than when we got there.

House was clean and comfortable, well equipped, we had everything we needed. Lake is beautiful! Outside of house could use some work. We did bring a small gas grill with us so didn’t use grill provided. Will keep it in mind for the future.

Rustic, cozy cabin for relaxing stay
This cabin was exactly what we wanted…we LOVED it!! We were happy to find parking off-street in a safe quiet neighborhood. We met neighbors on both sides and they were lovely, friendly people. There are a couple restaurant/bars in this small town that are good too. But it’s a small town with only a gas station, no grocery store so come with supplies. Lol The deck is awesome. We spent most of our time out there. We brought a folding table and our own camp chairs but there were a couple camp chairs there. We fished from the dock, we grilled, had a fire in the pit a couple nights, and enjoyed our coffee every morning on the deck. The bedrooms are basic but the beds are all comfortable. The linens feel like hand-me-downs so investing in high-end linens would make guest feel like guests. The kitchen has a lot of plates, cups, mugs, and pans, not enough silverware or cooking utensils. We bought a bunch at the thrift store and donated :-) Everything works and there is plenty of counter space for prep. The huge windows in the living room are great for the lake views. The breeze is also fantastic. There is a window a/c in the living room which cools the main living space but it doesn’t reach the bedrooms well. We found after dark, we opened the windows and it was cool enough to sleep. The cabin is a great place, Marnie was quick to respond to questions, we will definitely be back!

Nice Little Lake House
Location was great. We fished right off the dock all hours of the day and night. Had a nice sized deck to relax and bbq dinner on. Small town was friendly and the restaurant we ate at was surprisingly good.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Marnie Perfetti’s house has a living room w/ a couch, TV and a nice view of Lake Barrett. An outbuilding w/ two beds pictured in the listing photos is presented as usable. The door was so warped it would not close; it was full of leaves and debris. Rumpled sleeping bags on the beds made it look like someone was staying there. Parts of the main cabin porch were completely rotted out. These don’t appear in listing pics which are angled to leave them out. Broken window frames let flies inside. The inside was clean in some places, but dirty in others. We had to wash dishes. We washed all the sheets because there was hair, dirt, & sand on them. When we arrived, there was a wet towel on the bathroom floor. The next morning, we saw that the toilet leaked at the base; the deteriorated sealant needed repair. On our 3rd night, the toilet overflowed. Then water started backing up into the bathtub, the bathroom sink, & the kitchen sink. Unable to use the bathroom or the kitchen, we were forced to clean, pack, leave & rent hotel rooms. We asked Perfetti to refund 1 night plus our hotel costs. She covered the hotel rooms, but not the amount we paid for the last night. She responded with profanity when asked why she listed a place that was in poor condition and potentially unsafe. Perfetti maintained it was an unpredictable, “unfortunate” incident. But, someone knew there was a problem because they left a towel on the bathroom floor! The plumbing should have been fixed long ago.

Great quiet lake, lovely deck and dock
Outside property needs repairs, but inside it was clean and the kitchen was pretty well equipped. It would have been nice to have a picnic table on the lovely deck. More lighting (besides overheads) would have been nice in the bedrooms. Two reading lamps in the living room, for those of us who prefer to read. Would have been good to have been informed of the train traffic, but we adapted and found it not that big of a problem.

Very nice cabin, creepy neighbors
My friends and I stayed here for a weekend get away for fishing and swimming. The exterior of the cabin is deceptive as it has some rotted wood, doors which are slightly off the frame, chipped paint. The interior is quite nice and looks to have been recently updated. Clean floors, furniture, beds and appliances. We arrived friday evening and the neighbors, an older couple who live to the right of the cabin when looking at the lake, stood outdoors and stared at us unloading our possessions. They did not say anything or smile. They then followed us to the lake and sat on their porch, which is 6ft off of the cabins porch, not talking to each other and continuing to stare at us while we cooked on the grill and talked amongst ourselves. Then saturday evening we saw the older female neighbor standing on the path in back of the property, around 9pm, just staring at the cabin. Their behaviors were quite unsettling and frankly intimidating. If we had children with us we would have been quite nervous for their safety. The cabin was very nice, the lake was great and we had a very pleasant time. However, I do not know that we will return given the behaviors of these neighbors.

Cabin on Barrett Lake
The cabin was right on the lake with very nice views. The outside of the cabin could use some work. The inside of the cabin has knotty pine on the ceilings and trim. Very beautiful. There is new flooring also. The lightening needs to be better very dark at night, the handle is missing for the refrigerator and no mattress pads on beds.
