Hosts were a hoot to deal with! The small cottage we rented was very clean and neat, but a bit snug for my 6'4" frame. One of the big plusses for us was the sandy beach access, great for kids and for our pooch.

We had a great time staying at the Brass Bell. The cottage was very cute and the views of Higgins Lake are AWESOME!!! Spent our mornings on the dock having coffee and evenings around the campfire. The lake is beautiful and can't wait to return.

Home on the Lake

It was beautiful and loved the lake view, loved having access to the dock were we enjoyed sitting, loved having the fire pit right outside patio, our only suggestion was written in the guest book. We loved everything.

Peaceful lake front

The hosts were great! We had a little snag with checking in but they helped us right away and we're very pleasant the whole stay. House is cute, Tiny but served our purpose with just the two of us staying. Neighbors were friendly and joyful. Lake access was easy and the shoreline clean. We will definitely be back!

Higgins lake Relaxing stay

Kevin and Lori are very friendly and went out of there way to make us feel right at home. The cabin is very clean and cozy. All the things you needed was right there. The beautiful lake was right out the front window. They even had kayaks and a paddleboat that we could use. Which we took out a few times. Thank you Kevin and Lori for making our stay awesome.
