Summary: It is always nice to be at the lake and we did enjoy that but there were several things that were disappointing.The inside of the camp was clean, but the two chairs provided in the living area were very uncomfortable. We arrived on Monday and spent most of Tuesday cleaning. The deck floor and stairs were very dirty and my husband scrubbed them, as well as all the screens and the windows that we could reach. It took an hour and a half to clean the grill that was filthy. We went home and got our chairs to put on the deck.It was difficult getting down to the dock and water. Stairs would have been nice..The dock should be longer with an area so people could sit there. The view of the lake was mostly obscured by the trees. Although we realize you cannot cut the trees down legally I'm sure you could trim at least some of the dead branches. We rent a cottage every year and for the money we paid for this one, it was our least enjoyed. We will not return nor would we recommend it.
