This is the most peaceful and private place you could ask for with a beautiful view of the lake. The big deck overlooks the lake. Fishing is great or just paddling around the lake late in the day looking for wildlife. It is very pet friendly also. Both bedrooms have comfortable beds and the kitchen is fully equipped. The fireplace is a big plus. The owners are so very nice and ready to accommodate you with whatever you need. This is our little piece of Heaven when we are there. My favorite thing may be the fog lifting off the water each morning!

What a beautiful and heartfelt review of our little lakefront cottage . You are one of the few people who has mentioned the morning fog lifting off of the water… like a flashback in time from another era. If we could do time travel … that experience would take us there. Thank you for being a wonderful guest and for all of the great things that you have said here. We look forward to your return.

I am a retired school teacher and my husband is an industrial engineer. We own a cabin on this beautiful lake and purchased this cottage to rent.

Why they chose this property

This is a unique property... a cottage on a peninsula surrounded by water in three sides. it is the prettiest lot on the lake. Also known as "Blackberry Hill." One of our guests prepared this drone footage as a gift for us.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xp6huwYHZi8

What makes this property unique

A lovely lake, very very private lake...three sides of water! No gas motors. Swim. Fish. Row. Hike. Relax. Watch the stars from your private deck.
Sunrise and sunset can be seen from this cottage.
This is the choice lot of the lake! It just doesn't get any better than this!
