| Daiv and Lisa have the most beautiful property and cottage which we were fortunate to enjoy 2 years in a row with our kids. They were great hosts in giving us information and tours of the area and made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed.
The cottage is gorgeous and has everything you could possibly need or want. The cottage is clean with thoughtful touches all throughout. This includes all kitchen accessories, cleaning supplies, hammocks, trampoline and multiple places throughout property for quiet contemplation or walks.
We enjoyed the serenity of the lake, the privacy of the property, the incredible view and paddling around the island. The mornings and evenings are unbelievably beautiful and spent most of our time enjoying the dock and the lake.
I would not hesitate to recommend this property to anyone who wants to have a wonderful, peaceful time with their loved ones.

| Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Bayloft.
The cottage was very well equipped with all your kitchen needs, a great bbq, and an overall wonderful experience.
Loved the dock & swimming a nice calm bay to paddle board next time I'm bringing a kayak fishing was good (we need to find the hot spots) upon arrival we had a tour from Daiv & he explained everything that we needed to know about the cottage.
We hope to be back at The Bayloft next year

| We stayed for a week in July with our two dogs and it was sublime. Private, peaceful, and well appointed. Beautiful secluded spot. The swimming was fantastic, the new dock makes a great place to dangle your toes and forget the city. Perfect place to restore your spirit. Owner was most helpful and informative. Everything was just right. Great experience.

| First time here and highly recommend!
Our family of 7 loved our time here. The island experience was unique and the owners were so accommodating and pleasant to work with.
We rented their motor boat to go fishing and to get around. Very handy.
The cottage set up functions well and is spacious.
It's fairly private and our two dogs had a great time.
The dock is new, beautiful and easy to access. Beautiful sunsets.
There is a canoe and row boat provided which is great.
If you are looking for a relaxing escape. This is the place for you.
