PLEASE NOTE: As of July 14, 2016 the public boat launch on Bob Lake is unavailable due to a property dispute. However, the canoe is available. We are hoping this can be resolved for the 2017 summer season but there is no guarantee.
Winter Rentals: Please contact me regarding winter road conditions.
Approx. 300' of shoreline accessed by 58 stone terraced steps from the cottage. Large deck/dock with clean, deep water swimming (about 20' deep off the end), ladder at end of dock. There are 12 cement steps into the water beside the dock onto a flat cement pad then stony bottom.

Summary: A stunner of a cottage! Very spacious with all the amenities. If you don’t mind doing the steps down to the lakefront it’s worth the swim and the view. Which you can also get from the upper wrap around deck. Extremely gracious host! Thank you for everything.
