This spacious cottage is deceptively large as it was once two separate cottages that we joined together. The three bedroom configuration is unique with two of the rooms furnished with queen beds and the middle bedroom with a twin over full bunk bed and twin trundle. The cottage includes a canoe for cruising the lake and two hammocks to take it down. Enjoy a large deck on the lake or screened in porch to relax. There is also an expansive back yard with a golf net and plenty of room to play outdoor games.

4 in our family stayed for 5 nights. Very spacious with plenty of room for everyone. On the go everyday and the cabin with beautiful sunsets was wonderful to come home to. Thank you for sharing your cabin with us.
We had a wonderful time relaxing at this property and adventuring to the neighboring attractions. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The fireplace was our favorite. Every morning the lake showed us a new view.
This was our first stay at Poulin Shores and it will definitely not be our last! The lake views were spectacular from inside the house as well as on the deck. We have been to many lake houses and this is one of our new favorites. My family enjoyed fishing the lake as well as a bit of kayaking. The house is clean and had all of the necessary amenities. We look forward to the opportunity to stay here again.
