We loved staying at the Port Side Cottage for a long weekend! We have stayed at locations all over the lake but found this cottage and were delighted with the lake views, cleanliness and amenities of this cottage. We will be back!

Beautiful lake home

Stayed here for a weekend with family. Place is gorgeous. Only one other home was rented in the small community, which was great because it was quiet and nice to enjoy pool and lake.

We rented three cottages to host our Nana's 90th Birthday celebration. Perfect location and beautiful home. Exactly as pictured. Loved having the pool in-between our cottages. Kayaks are included and the kids loved taking them out on the lake.

Great cottage and great views

Immaculate house in beautiful location. The pictures do not do the cottage justice. Open spaces great for a large family, beautifully furnished and gorgeous deck with tv, fireplace that overlooks the lake. The teens especially loved the heated pool. Kerri was easy to work with, responded quickly and accommodated all of our requests. Look forward to returning soon.

Modern meets Cozy

We had an incredible stay at Portside! The pictures do not do the customized, yet cozy feel of this property any justice. This specific cottage has a perfect view of the lake & the pool! Breathtaking sunsets and peaceful sunrises. There were 4 families staying with children varying from 4 to 18. We all had plenty of room and lots of different hang out spots. Double porches with gas fire places for cozy early morning coffee and late evening drinks. A wood burning fire place by the pool for s’mores! Kayaks on property and boat rentals literally a rock’s throw away. The property is well laid out and offers something for every age. Kerri was extremely accommodating & very responsive! Towels and blankets are plentiful, which is always a plus when kids are staying! Highly recommend!!

50th Birthday Celebration to Remember!

Cottage Cove is an amazing property! We rented 4 of the now 5 cottages - Starboard, Portside, Top Side, and Anchor - for my 50th birthday celebration. Nearly 40 family and friends were able to enjoy the pool, lake, and comforts of home for four days. It was a great experience! We had wonderful host gifts in each home, and the host was very responsive when we needed vanity light bulbs changed in one of the bathrooms. We had the pool heated for night time swimming. We were able to dine at pool pavillion as well as on patios outdoors. We fished from the dock and from our boat that we put on the water via the marina across the street. We grilled and hosted a brunch with a private chef. We didn't get to use the fire pit or outdoor fireplaces, but we hope to stay again to enjoy that as well! The Cottages are a bit expensive, but well worth it for the luxury and convenience. It is truly a beautiful property and the pictures don't fully do it justice. You won't regret booking here!
