About this property

Barrett Lake, rent year round!

** Outside of Cabin needs work done! Please, don’t judge a book by its cover 😊. The inside is very nice!** This is a remodeled (inside) two bedroom, one bath cabin on Barrett Lake. I want your vacation to be as stress-free as possible. Therefore; linens, towels, pots and pans, utensils, paper products, etc. are included. Missing something? Just ask me.

This cabin is ideally located with in walking distance to town, a public fishing pier, picnic areas, a dam, play ground, basketball court, historic buildings, gas station, bar/restaurant and more.

Keep It a Secret!

No, that would be selfish. Me and my Son and Daughter all can hardly wait to return. Beautiful Barrett Lake is just steps from your door. The place is beautifully furnished, fun and well supplied kitchen. Air conditioning was great, and wonderful shower. Having the kayak available was a real bonus. It was so perfect, we almost don’t want to tell anyone about it, but we really will. Thank you for all you have done to great this lovely ‘Get Away’. VYONNE HOWG

Great Time!

Had a great time and was perfect for what me and my friends needed only thing I would say is that the blinds in the living room don’t close and it’s a big window so it leaves little privacy. Other than that we had an amazing time and would defiantly recommend it fit 4 people very comfortably! The owner responded fast to any questions/concerns we had an overall an amazing time!

Nice Little Lake House

Location was great. We fished right off the dock all hours of the day and night. Had a nice sized deck to relax and bbq dinner on. Small town was friendly and the restaurant we ate at was surprisingly good.

Great place to spend time with family.

Spent weekend there with my best friend and his two seven year old daughters. We were even able to bring our dogs along. Property was well stocked with all the things we needed (not food, obviously). We had a great time just hanging out and fishing off the dock. Only drawback was water was too mucky to swim on that side of the lake the weekend we went.

Relaxing get away

House was clean and comfortable, well equipped, we had everything we needed. Lake is beautiful! Outside of house could use some work. We did bring a small gas grill with us so didn’t use grill provided. Will keep it in mind for the future.

It was good I was a little disappointed about the fire pit. When we got there it was in ok shape but once we had a fire going it fell apart. The house was decent to stay in. The pictures looked better than when we got there.

Parking was good. The street is very quiet. It’s an old path to walk down to the cabin, the outside lawn/ flowerbeds and cabin need attention. Inside the cabin was really nice and clean, new floors comfy couch nice big dinner table. However it’s lacking enough towels & wash clothes no instructions on how to operate tv/ ac and it could use some lamps. The deck and dock are nice but nearly impossible to get in / out of the lake it’s large rocks for the shoreline. It met our needs for our weekend motorcycle trip but I wouldn’t rent again if a weekend at the lake was what I wanted.

Cabin on Barrett Lake

The cabin was right on the lake with very nice views. The outside of the cabin could use some work. The inside of the cabin has knotty pine on the ceilings and trim. Very beautiful. There is new flooring also. The lightening needs to be better very dark at night, the handle is missing for the refrigerator and no mattress pads on beds.

It is not as it seems.

The photos make it look like it’s a tolerable place to stay for the price. It was not. It was dirty and rundown. The bunkhouse was full of leaves and beds that weren’t made. The bedding is old and worn. The shower is full of hard water stains. The closets are unfinished and filled with random things. It’s worth about half of what it’s rented for now. It smelled of mold, mildew and dust VERY strongly. The porch is rotting. Most of the windows in the porch have gaps in them letting in all of the flying critters. This could be a lovely place, but it needs some work.
