YOUR LAKE ESCAPE AWAITS
Whether it’s an adventurous weekend or a cozy retreat, our Cottage has everything you need for an unforgettable stay. Book now to secure your dates and start making memories!
✅ This property has special local compliance requirements which include a signed rental agreement, ID verification, and a security hold of $1500 (which is not a traditional security deposit, just a pending transaction). As an optional alternative to the security hold, you may opt in to purchase a non-refundable damage waiver provided by a third-party insurance company. The optional damage waiver is $49 for stays up to 10 nights, with an additional $2 per day for stays longer than 10 nights. Damage waiver purchases are optional.
To make this process easy for you, we use a secure and very simple, app-free platform called Happy Guest. It is not an app, and you do not have to sign up for an account - it’s a safe and secure website. It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of my favorite local spots.
If you have any questions, just message us anytime! Happy to help!

What makes this property unique
Cell reception in the area can be spotty and Verizon's network works best. There is free wifi at the cabin so guests can communicate if they need over the internet.
This cottage is situated on a resort and shares amenities with the lake house next door. Currently the canoe and sandbox area are shared, however the cottage has it's own dock, deck, kayaks, grill and firepit. The buildings are close to each other (maybe 20 feet away), however the cottage has curtains for privacy.
For your security and ours, the exterior entrances to the cabin are monitored with security cameras. One camera is located on the front door as a doorbell, and there are others monitoring the sliding doors and the parking area.
Use of boats and premises is at your own risk. Appropriate safety gear (i.e. life jackets, etc.) should be used when enjoying the watercraft. Children should be supervised at all times, and parents should note that there are not baby gates for the stairs or any barriers leading to the path to the lake.
While firewood is provided, we only provide it for indoor fires. For outdoor fires, there is occasionally a pile of scrap wood down by the fire pit, or you are welcome to forage on the property or bring in some wood (locally sourced please). Alternatively, you may purchase extra firewood from us for outdoor fires for $40
