About this property

Welcome to the 'Peapod Cabin'. Our cabin comes loaded with everything you'll need for a stay with just your partner, your family or friends. Enjoy lake views from the Porch, Deck, Living Room, Kitchen and downstairs bedroom. Savor a long bubble bath in the jetted tub. Stay cozy reading next to the fireplace. The options are endless for your stay.

**Summer stays must be a full Sun-Sun rental**In the springtime enjoy views of the birds coming back to the open waters of the lake. We love watching the loons and the eagles in the mornings from our screened in porch. Head on over to Albion Park just down the road for picnics, hiking, or just large open areas for your kids to burn some energy. Grab a local bottle of wine from a nearby winery and sip it by the fireplace with your fresh chocolates from the local candy store.

Ah Summertime. The best time for the lake! We have a beach/swimming area right on our property for you to enjoy. A pontoon is available for rent and we have a dock if you'd like to bring your own boat as well. We have water toys, sand toys, a canoe, paddle boards and more for you to enjoy outdoors. Be sure to get your s'more fix in at night around the fire while you listen to the night sounds of the lake.

In the fall, you must get out and enjoy the colors! Take a hike, grab your camera for photos of the trees around the lake, build leaf piles in the yard. There are a few apple orchards nearby that offer both kids and adult activities. Grab some apples and head back to the cabin to bake a homemade pie and sip on a fresh jug of local apple cider.

In the wintertime our cabin includes ice skates in numerous sizes (we can't guarantee we have your size), sleds, a pair of cross country skis and snow toys. Want to try your hand at ice fishing? We have a pop-up ice house available at no extra charge. Want to stay inside and relax during your stay? No problem. We have 6 smartTV's with wifi to catch up on show-binging, a jetted tub to soak in for hours, a fireplace with reading options from baby to grandma and warm & plush throws with plenty of mugs to fill with hot chocolate or coffee.

*Icehouse is seasonal and is only on the lake during safe ice levels. Subject to change at anytime.

Overall, we had a fantastic experience. It is a beautiful property. The only complaints are that dishes were put away dirty (caked on food from the dishwasher) & there weren’t enough kitchen towels for drying dishes. The crockpot was missing its liner and lid. Great communication with Kati, I will recommend this to others!

Well Worth The Stay

We enjoyed our stay. The cabin was nice, clean and plenty of room for 8 of us. The lake view was pretty and relaxing. I wasn’t a fan of the firmness of our bed (too hard) but I would imagine it would be hard to make everyone happy in this regard. My only real complaint would be the internet tv. The tv in the living room didn’t want to work most of the time. It kept losing connection to the network. With it being Thanksgiving weekend we were hoping to have the games on. We had to play them on an iPad that had its own cellular service. In the big scheme of things this is a small complaint. Great communication by the owner. She was very nice. We are overall very happy with our stay and would definitely stay again and recommend this location!

About the host

Hosted by Kati Vos

Hello! I'm Kati, and welcome to our Peapod Cabin. We've named it after our family of 6 (or 8 if we are counting the animals). Pat & I met when we were 5 years old, dated shortly in the 5th grade :), and reconnected after high school. We got married in 2009. We enjoyed a number of kid-free years together before becoming foster parents and eventually adopting 4 amazing kids in 5 years. Our family means everything to us, which is why we created this space. We all worked on it together, the kids even helped pick out pieces for "their" rooms. This project has given us the chance to learn and grow as a family and we hope you love it here as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

We chose this property/location because of our love for the area with previous family cabins. Pat's grandma owned a cabin in Annandale that brought our family so many precious memories and when that cabin was passed on we knew we needed to keep the memories alive in one of our favorite places.

What makes this property unique

One of our favorite things about this cabin is that we can walk right out of the living room and onto the beach. Our kids LOVE sand and water so this is our biggest perk.
