In the winter, enjoy a popular ice fishing spot with easy access to the lake. Cook's Bay, a shallower area of the lake, is known for Perch fishing.

Wonderful stay, as advertised and exceptionally clean. Definitely a retro feel, and very roomy. Exactly what we were looking for, to share a cottage experience like we had when we were children with our kids. Will definitely book again.

Cute cottage

Spacious and well equipped with comfy beds and pillows Close to a nice beach and playground with some play equipment in the yard as well. We had a couple of very active children with us and the cottage was roomy enough for us to relax while they played. The kids loved the 2 sets of bunk beds! We would definitely rent again if we are in the area

A nice place away from home

Amazing little place away from the hustle and bustle of life it self. Its exactly what a cottage should be. So much space for everyone to stay. Just with my stay, the people who were coming with me couldnt make it and i had the whole place to myself! Not to far away from the water as well.

Perfect…just perfect

They thought of everything, things I didn’t even think we would need were there for our use. The place is so very comfortable and spacious. We felt like we were at home here. Highly recommend for families or small groups looking to stay together but still have their own rooms.

Quiet corner lot

My family of 5 fit well in this home. It provided enough space for everyone to have there own quarters but not so much space that we never saw each other. The tv doesn't receive any channels but there are a few movies provided for you to watch. The water is just a few minutes walk down a very quiet dirt road. There is also Walmart and a few other shops in town about 5 miles away which is convenient for shopping. The home was a bit chilly but I guess that is to be expected at the end of November. We enjoyed our stay and appreciate the owners allowing us to come a little early as we were ahead of schedule in our travels.
