...we’ve created a space for multiple generations to reconnect, without the buzzing
distractions of day-to-day life.

NATURE LOVERS WELCOME

From sunup ‘til sundown, we have a variety of outdoor activities to keep the whole
family entertained.

Whether it’s exploring our nature trails on foot or bike, taking a dip in the hot tub
under the stars, or paddling around the private, 2-acre pond, there’s no limit to
things you can do outside.

AIR HOCKEY, ANYONE?

Should the weather turn sour on you, head inside to the game room that’s sure to
get any teen’s stamp of approval.

Go head-to-head over a game of:
- Air Hockey

Amazing !!!

I can’t say enough good about the Cottage on Maple Pond. It was wonderful. Our whole family enjoyed our time there. Our sons and grandsons fished from dawn to dusk. They loved it. Everything was perfect. Rose thought of everything down to the last detail. I never stayed at a place that supplied so much. We all can’t wait to come back.

Amazing! Book now!

I wish I could give more than 5 stars. We had such an amazing time at the Cottage on Maple Pond. The customer care is beyond anything we have ever experienced (and we travel a lot). They truly care about their customers. Everything was very clean and there were so many sweet details. There is so much to do right on the property that we never left during our stay. If it rains, the basement is filled with games and fun. On nice days there are kayaks, canoes, paddle boards, fishing and more! Book it now! You will not be sorry!

Perfection

The Cottage at Maple Pond was the perfect get away for our spring break mini vacation. There were 9 guests in our group and we all had an exception time. Everything was amazing. So much fun for the kids. Rose did an amazing job at preparing for our stay- every detail (large and small) as taken care of- and then some. I cannot recommend Your Family’s Place enough. The kids are already begging to book again!

Nicest VRBO ever

Rose is a wonderful host who did lots of little things to make us feel welcome and comfortable. We had 7 adults and 10 kids between ages of 4 and 13. They all had a blast playing in the pond together! The facilities were beautifully appointed and maintained.

Thanksgiving at The Cottage

The home was absolutely wonderful. We enjoyed all the outside activities and all the fun games in the lower level. The house had everything we needed to host our Thanksgiving get together and the fireplace was so cosy. We thought there would be 6 bedrooms because that was what the listing stated so when we got there we were a bit confused to find that there were only 4. You had to rent the cabin next door to get 2 more bedrooms. There were several couches so we made it work. Rose was the most gracious host we have ever had at a vrbo. We would definitely stay there again.

A hidden gem

We are so happy to stay at Cottage of Maple Pond. The house is so huge, very modern, and well maintained. We all love the decorations in the house, great taste! My husband enjoyed fishing in the pond. He and my daughter caught large mouth basses. The owner, Rose, is extremely helpful. We will definitely choose Cottage at Maple Pond again!

Perfection

What a stunning place, and what an exceptional host! I cannot say enough about the house. It comes with everything a family would want and need. We held our family Christmas here and had a wonderful time. The game room downstairs was perfect for kids and adults. Many hours of fun were had. The upstairs was large enough to move around very comfortably, and the table provided plenty of space to sit. The host, Rose, found out we were hosting Christmas at the house and put up the Christmas decor early for us. She was so thoughtful, helpful, and wonderful to work with. We cannot wait to come back. The entire family raved about how amazing the house was. Thank you for everything!

Best Family Fall Trip Ever!!

We have stayed at a lot of places over the years but this place far exceeded expectations! From the property setting to the amenities, the extras, the adds on, the decor and top notch host, this place was everything and more. We fished, kayaked, swam (burr!), had game night, ate together (14 around 1 table!!!), had fires and made smores :), had game night, girls night/guys night, studied the Bible in the morning while the sun came up looking over the lake, slept comfortably, zipped, swung, and hiked all on one great property! We felt like we were home right away with the great greetings form Rose and the only thing that would have made this trip and time better was just that, more time here. We will come back and recommenced it to all!! Thanks Rose!!!

Amazing venue for a family gathering

The Cottage at Maple Pond is absolutely perfect. The layout is exactly what we needed for several families gathering for Christmas. The home has everything you need, and the basement is perfect for all generations to play! We were even able to enjoy the gorgeous outdoor patio and fire pit. The view from there is spectacular. My family gives this property a double thumbs up!!
