Association Rules: Since our cottage is a part of a condominium association, there are rules to which all guests must adhere for all to have a safe and pleasant experience:

1) Quiet hours of 11:00p.m. - 8:00a.m. are to be observed.

2) No more than two vehicles per unit are to be parked near the unit in which you are staying. Additional vehicles, including trailers, are to be parked on the lawn on the west end of the property. *Please adjust if the ground is soft to prevent rutting.*

3) **Pets are not allowed in this rental cottage.** Pets are to be kept on a leash not longer than 10ft. in length; owners are expected to clean up all pet debris as soon as such debris is discovered.

4) No immoral or unlawful conduct, including foul language, is permitted on the property. This is a 'family' resort.

5) All trash is to be placed in the container at the entrance to the property. Please double bag all garbage.

6) Common courtesy is to be extended to all owners and guests at all times

Association Rules Continued: 7) Tents, campers or screen houses are NOT permitted at any time.

8) No vehicles are permitted beyond the drive on the east end of the property (i.e. vehicles are not permitted near the fire pit or waterfront).

9) Do not take firewood from other units. If you wish to have a fire, you must bring your own firewood.

Note: These guidelines represent only highlights from the official documents of the Northwood Bay Condo Association. Owners and guests are expected to adhere to all Association guidelines as indicated in such documents.

A Wonderful Vaction

5 of 5
Submitted: July 18, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
We had a wonderful time there. The cabin was clean, cozy, warm and charming. It had everything we would have at home and more. I really didn't have to bring a thing. From Fishing poles, to lawn chairs, cable tv, fans. It was quite and peaceful. Nights were warm and cozy. My hat goes off to the owners Tom and Kathy. They were very nice and helpful and they took very good care of the cabin. We really didn't want to come home. I would recommend this cabin to anyone.

Thank You Again

Cozy, comfortable and clean

Me, my husband and nine yr old son just spent a week at this cottage and were very pleased with the charm and splendor it offered. The view of the lake is beautiful with a shady front area to sit and enjoy. The best part of this cottage is the enclosed front porch with windows that open to catch the breeze. I spent a lot of time there reading and watching the activity on the lake without swatting at the bugs. My son swam in the shallow sandy area by the dock, and we liked having a boatslip to dock our fishing boat. The cabin was very nicely decorated and organized with lots of hooks and shelves to put your belongings. The space is wisely used as it is only 500 sq. feet. I liked the fact that it was a non smoking/no pets cabin so there was no smell of stale smoke and pet odors. There are two windows in each room, except for the bathroom which has one, but on a hot day one can get a nice cross breeze. For the price this cabin was everything we needed and we would recommend this for up to four people. My family all had a nice time there and we would go back again. The west boat launch is about 3 miles south of the cabin, which was conveniently located and there are many good restaurants nearby. We hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did!

Very comfortable cottage with well-stocked kitchen, extra linens, books, family games, fishing poles. Snug and cozy during cold, rainy days. We appreciated being right on the water. Wonderful assistance from the owner in making reservations.

Perfect vacation getaway

This cottage was a perfect getaway for my family. I have two small children that loved being there and were never bored. The location and view were great. The cottage was very clean and offered a quite location for just being outside on the water with my family. Town was just a short drive away for any amenities that we had forgotten and offered several other entertainment options.

I'd recommend this cottage highly. The owner was very polite and easy to work with and made the transaction smooth.
