What an amazing spot and what a wonderful place. It’s a great place to enjoy the lake and the house has a phenomenal array of water sports gear and other games. The views are just extraordinary and it’s an incredibly peaceful spot. Host is fantastic, and the place is really well equipped all around. A great experience, highly recommend!

Magical experience. The home and location are gorgeous and there is endless activities. So many thoughtful, small details. Will most certainly return, likely with more family members to share both cabins on the property. Amazing from start to finish!

Best spot on the lake! We really enjoyed our stay in this cozy cottage. Everything was perfect, and the hot tub after a long day of riding in the rain topped it all off. Highly recommend!

We had a lovely girls weekend at Evan’s place! It was cozy, clean, and right on the lake. The hot tub was a wonderful addition! I highly recommend Evan’s cottage for any getaway. We will be back!
