    This updated, year round, charming family cottage features 3 BR, 2 bath
    1st Floor Galley Kitchen, large living room w/sliders to a remodeled and heated Sun porch and large wrap around deck, 1st floor Bedroom with Queen and Bunk Beds, renovated full bathroom.
    Second floor has 2 bedrooms, each with a premium Queen bed. One room has a remodeled bathroom, the other room has a private Juliette balcony overlooking the lake with sitting area.
    Both upstairs bedrooms have small air conditioners.

    Outdoor life: Fishing is great! Right off the dock or off the peninsula! Large mouth, small mouth and spotted bass, Pickerol, Perch, and even a few Massive Carp and trout. Use the kayaks or canoe to explore the lake or fish! Watch the sunset from a captivating screened in porch or from the front deck on Adirondack chairs.

    Did I forget,...Great swimming too!!!

    Enjoy your mornings waking up lake side, sipping coffee from the private balcony off the master bedroom.
    Soak up the afternoon sun in the lake, fish off the dock or play catch or baseball in the large yard.
    As the sun starts to set, enjoy a family dinner by cooking outdoors on the Stone grill! With many options, you can eat inside the sun porch or outdoors on the picnic table as you watch the sunset dip right across the other side of the lake.
    Nights by the lake are filled with fun and laughter, sit by the fire, gaze at the beautiful stars or maybe even do a little night fishing for catfish.

April visit

We enjoyed our stay. As a family of cooks the kitchen was very small and this was a bit of a challenge. It is a very relaxing cottage and we enjoyed the water even if it was a bit cold as our time was in April. I would certainly return to this rental. It is very clean and the sun room was wonderful.

Incredible stay on the Lake

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. The place was exactly what we were looking for. A beautiful house directly on the water with great views from every room. The fishing was great. The swimming from the dock was great fun. The host was fantastic in answering all our questions. I can't wait to go back!

Beautiful relaxing setting

We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful setting to spend a week. The lake was so peaceful and calm. We enjoyed getting out on the kayaks and exploring. The house was comfortable, a little cramped for the seven of us but the view made it worth it.

Beautiful Lakefront Getaway

A sweet home with amazing views and access to the lake. The hosts thought of all the things we would need and had a well stocked home. There were plenty of towels, dishes, and games to use. There were spaces to relax and enjoy both inside and out. The yard felt very private even though other people were next door. We had eight people in our group and though I wouldn’t describe the house as large, it did not feel small for our group. We had a wonderful time and would definitely return!

Lake house

Great vacation The outside lawn and seating was great - the raft, dock, kayaks and swimming beach were fully enjoyed by the 8- to 16- year- olds in our party. The living room and sun room dining area were also great. The downside was the small galley kitchen and the unusual upstairs sleeping arrangements. The bedroom overlooking the lake was nice, but you had to go through the other bedroom or downstairs to get to a bathroom. Overall it was a perfect place for the grandkids to have a wonderful vacation.

Relaxing Family Vacation

What a beautiful waterfront home hidden away in a quiet and peaceful setting. Our family enjoyed swimming, kayaking and fishing daily as well as sitting by the fire pit or playing lawn and board games throughout the day and night. We saw turtles, herons and other wildlife while exploring around the lake and were fully entertained by the family of ducks that came to visit us often while sitting on the waterside patio enjoying our morning coffee. It was the perfect end-of-summer get-away for some special family time before heading back to school and work. The owners were very attentive to our needs and checked in before and after our arrival to make sure we had everything we needed and to make sure we were settling in nicely. It was a 5 star experience all around, and we look forward to visiting this gem on the lake again soon!

Huns at the Lake

The Lakehouse was amazing! Even more spacious and comfortable than the photos showed. It was immaculately clean.The house was close to everything in town. Beds were very comfy, extra blankets and pillows kept us all cozy. The screened in porch was such a great gathering place. Amenities in the listing were accurate.... boats, fire pit, kitchen appliances and utensils, and plenty of patio and deck chairs, both front and back decks. The yard was huge and gorgeous, the peninsula provided privacy and an amazing view. Plenty of parking. Jamie was very accommodating and responded in a timely manner. Check-in was easy. The only thing that could have been improved was the Internet being out of service for the whole weekend, but there was so much to do on the lake that we didn't need it for entertainment. Thanks Jamie. We hope to rent again next year.
