Frequently Asked Questions


Do you have Wi-Fi?

Yes! For those who are looking for a little more of a boost, a network extender is available for rent for your cottage.

Is there good cell phone coverage?

Yes! Our experience is that all major cellular providers have very good coverage everywhere on the property.


Do you have air conditioning? TVs?

We believe in preserving the vintage cottage environment at Sundeck Cottages and, thus, do not provide air conditioning or televisions in the cottages.

Exceptions to this are cottage 11 (air conditioning and tv), the studio (air conditioning), cottage 6 (tv), and the lakefront house (tv).

What is stocked in the kitchens?

All of our kitchens are fully stocked to make your vacation enjoyable. There are full sized refrigerators, a stove / oven, coffee maker, microwave, plates, glasses, silverware, cookware, dish soap, a cleaning sponge, and a starter roll of paper towels. If there is something you need during your stay, just ask! We probably have one for you to use.

Do you have outdoor grills on site to use?

Most of our guests bring their own smaller propane or charcoal grills for their time at the lake. However, we usually have a charcoal grill available to borrow should you need one. These are first come, first served.

Are there laundry facilities on site?

We do not have on site laundry. There are a number of laundry options very close by.

We have more than two cars. What do we do?

Please contact us and let us know what your situation is. We can usually accommodate your extra vehicle somewhere on our property.

I have an electric vehicle (EV). Can I charge at Sundeck?

Unfortunately, our infrastructure is not equipped at this time to allow for EV charging (even using 110/120 household chargers). We ask our guests to use nearby charging stations to power up.

What upgrades have you made recently?

For our 2027 season, the shuffleboard court is back! It has been restored after 30+ years of disuse and is ready for play. All floors on the first level of cottage 6 and in the bathroom of cottage 8 have been completely renovated. And even though you’ll never see it (and that’s the way we want it)… our sewer system has been completely replaced!

In 2026, we renovated the entire cottage flooring in cottages 1, 2, 3, 4, and 11. We also renovated the floors in specific rooms for cottages 7, 8, 9 and 10. Our secondary dock (between cottages 1 and 2) has been replaced with a brand new modern dock. And, lastly, a few toilets and fixtures were completely replaced across the property.

In 2025, we completed refreshing all twin beds across the property. With this upgrade, all mattresses have been evaluated and refreshed as needed! Cottage 5 received new flooring and cottages 5, 6, 8, 9, 10 and 11 also received new furniture. Lastly, we doubled our internet bandwidth for our guests.

Why aren’t linens and/or towels included?

Most of our guests have been coming for years and prefer to bring their own linens and towels. For those that do not, we are able to provide these for a small fee. We charge for this service because we have to do all the laundry ourselves and it is very time consuming.
