Another perfect north shore getaway
We have stayed 3 times at this property. It is a perfect quiet and secluded spot, with great hiking options nearby. The cottage is obviously well cared for and beautifully furnished. This is a favorite spot for our family to come and stay.

Beautiful & Cozy Getaway!
This is one of the best VRBO's I've ever stayed at!! Photos do not do the home and property justice. Everything was clean, updated, organized, and well taken care of. The surrounding land was gorgeous and fun to explore! It was a perfect spot for my 30th Birthday weekend getaway, we will definitely be back, already looking at a winter trip up there!
