What a cute and cozy cabin! Interesting architectural features allow fabulous view of lake. Our 4 year old grandson enjoyed the kids' size Foosball table and board games--his rules--particularly. We had everything we needed in this lovely spot. Could not have been cleaner. Charming.
Glassed in porch with a view.

Tranquility Lake Stay

Peaceful lake setting steps from the cabin. Lots of opportunities to watch eagles in action, watch dragonflies, and fish from the dock. The cabin is cozy and has all you need for a comfortable stay. You are truly unplugged at this cabin. If you are looking for a working vacation, this is not what you are looking for. If you are looking for a quiet place to unwind, this cabin has what you need.

So relaxing! Such a cozy place on a quoet private lake! There is swimming access just down the way that you don't have to use the dock for. Future travelers: My only complaint is this kitchen is NOT stocked at all. Most places have bare necessities including oil, seasonings, basic condiments, etc, but this place had nothing! Pack your own! Otherwise amazing cabin!!!

Comfy and Cozy

Our family was looking for a quiet place to unplug and relax our minds from media and work. This place was all that and more. We played board games, told stories, had home cooked family meals, listened to the rain, read books and went for a canoe ride on the lake. None of us wanted to go back home. Lovely, simply lovely.

Sweet Cabin on the Lake

We have stayed 4 nights in the cabin. This cabin was one of a kind that you would never forget and wanted to return back. It has a private setting on a beautiful lake surrounded by the forest yet close to the stores and restaurants. We have a memorable moment associated with this cabin: our son caught his first fish there. We enjoyed the campfire under the stars after a day of hiking. Very relaxing! Please note that there is no internet in the cabin, however we were able to use a hotspot whenever we have to search for a trail map or check emails. Thank you, Annette, for letting us stay at your cabin. We would definitely love to return back :)

Cozy and inviting cabin. Comfortable and quaint. The best part for us was the dock, water, trails, and beach. We spent as much time as we could on the dock or in the water. And of course some late summer huckleberry picking!

Huckleberry Cottage Review

Very nice getaway. Quite, clean, and a fun place for a couple to spend time. The lake is very nice with a great dock to relax on. Many great day hikes near by, as well as some great places to eat and visit in Hoodsport. If you had kids this place would be great to go. Lots of fun to be had.

We had a very nice stay here. The cabin and lake were just as I’d imagined. We did not want to leave! Kayaked around the lake, cooked delicious meals in the kitchen, and hiked around the area.

Peaceful and quiet getaway!

Got this as a gift for my Mom and Dad who love to just relax at the lake, fish and troll around on the boat. They said they just loved how private and quiet it was there! Cabin was really nice and remote, has enough space to take the family. Nice lame, caught some trout and did some swimming. We will definitely be booking again!

Inaccurate listing

Wifi is noted as a listing amenity AND IT IS NOT. I chose this place based on 2 things--pet friendly and wifi. I wanted to have a working holiday with family, instead I spent 20minutes both ways driving into town and sitting at a shop for a couple hours to use their wifi instead of being with my family. In response the owner said: "The company is run pretty much out of the country nowadays so you'd never know what they're going to do". No ma'am that is not why your listing is inaccurate. If the owner doesn't know how to update their listing the onus is on them, because people pay $100s &$1000ks to rent, to be extremely transparent at the very beginning of their flowery description stating: THERE IS NO WIFI, DESPITE WHAT THE AMENITY LISTING SAYS.We were locked out of the cabin on the 3rd day and sent a message to the owner. Luckily we kept trying the code for about 30 minutes and got in because the owner responded 3 hours later that this was a known issue and there was a trick to get in.That should have been part of the check in information and this would have easily been avoided. There are 4 houses on the very small lake (not 3 as the listing states) with a very large 5th house being built. There were only 2 families using the lake during out stay, which was "cozy" and not too crowded feeling. If all those houses were using the lake at the same time, it would be crowded, no way to avoid that and not a dream fishing retreat.The cabin is clean and cozy.
