Wonderful lakeside retreat

All the kids and grandkids loved it. Relaxing, refreshing and rejuvenating. Great fishing, great fires, and just quiet and slow paced yet close to all groceries and restaurants!! Good quality linens.

Great house and waterfront

We enjoyed our week at 'Camp Pickles'. We were very comfortable in the cottage and had lots of fun on the lake. Our dogs learned to swim from the shore and even wanted to fetch and explore. It was fun taking out the kayaks and paddleboat, hanging out on the dock and swimming to the swim dock. Everything in the cottage kitchen was clean, well-organized and in great condition. We had all we needed. The rooms were full of nooks where people could sit together, watch tv, dine or read and check in at work. The bedrooms were nice and the beds were very comfortable. In the evenings we enjoyed the campfire. One evening we had a wonderful dinner at Zorvino's winery. The owners have thought of everything to make our stay wonderful.
