The entire resort is nestled within 12 acres of park like grounds on a beautiful cove at Lake O The Pines. The unique architecture employs historic details such as turrets, a vaulted barrel ceiling in the main ballroom and a beautiful domed ceiling with large chandelier in the entrance hall. An abundance of glass facing East as well as an outdoor furnished deck allows gatherings to enjoy the lake and incredible views.

Cottage on the Lake
This was our second stay at the Cottage and it has easily become our favorite place to stay!!! Tom and Katherine are the most gracious and kind hosts we have encountered through VRBO. The cottage is 2 bedrooms with a loft and fits our family of 4 perfectly. The kitchen is little, but has all you need to make a meal. The views from the patio are stunning! We had a few little showers and were able to just sit on the patio and enjoy the sounds of nature and look out on the lake. (The only minor thing that might be a negative for some is there is no WiFi or TV. We however didn’t have any issue with that, but it’s worth noting for others.) If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway at the lake, this is the place for you! We will be back soon!
