| We had an amazing experience at Towering Pines!!!! The cottage is gorgeous, the kitchen is fully stocked, the bathrooms were amazing with deep tubs and showers, and there was even on site laundry! Two fire pits, one by the water and one by the cottage, were super convenient and I cannot say enough about how responsive Andrea was to every question we had! Emails answered within hours, helpful and courteous and wonderful!
The lake is quiet and gorgeous, and the included canoe and paddle boat were everything we needed! The small private sandy beach was perfect for our young kids to play on safely. A wonderful getaway spot!

| What a fantastic experience we had during our stay at Towering Pines Cottage last week! From the time of inquiry, to booking, and during our stay, Andrea was responsive to all of our questions and made the ease of stay so enjoyable. The cottage itself is clean, well taken care of, has beautiful character to it and plenty of space! The water is lovely, with some nice sand to dip our toes. The children enjoyed using some of the water toys that were available to us as well. When it was raining we were able to sit in the covered patio that overlooked the lake. You are not on top of each other if you are staying with multiple families. We all had our own space but were able to come together in the large living areas and had lots of laughs sitting together at the dining table. Overall, our experience was so wonderful! We really do appreciate all the effort Andrea put in to make our stay so memorable. If you are thinking of booking here, don't waste another second! Book now!! You won't regret it. :)

| When arriving at the cottage, even before stepping into it, there is a sense of calmness and serenity feel about it. Inside was very cozy and clean. All essentials were provided for the kitchen, as well as the option of bedding. The grounds were landscaped to perfection. Waking down to the water was even more calming. The kids enjoyed the paddle boat the most, we spend most of the time at the water. This cottage was a week of memory making for our family. Andrea was most helpful with any questions I had and was able to assist me, she was very kind and her attention to detail reflected on the needs of the guests staying. I have already booked a week in the upcoming year. I would definitely recommend this cottage.
