Right off the lake was so fun! The kids swam off the dock every day and we all took wakeboarding lessons from Carter (Big Water Sports). He worked with our kids ages 11, 9, 7, and 5 so well. They learned a lot and had a blast! I would highly recommend him! It was super convient that he could pick us up/drop us off at our dock AND that we could watch them wakeboard from our dock and see the progress they were making so quickly! The water was warm and very calm because of the surrounding hills and trees blocking any wind. The kids loved the water pad provided to play on too. The cottage was great and we were able to make all our meals there without eating out. Oh and the dock is big/wide and partly in the shade of some trees, which was perfect for us as parents who wanted to watch our kids activity without getting sunburnt. The back yard is also fenced in and shaded. Just a great expierence overall, super fun and relaxing.
This was a lovely property well taken care of asked with a beautiful view and easy lake access. There was clearly a lot of thought from the owners, from extra bug spray to a well stocked game room. We only had six guests but could have accommodated up to eight utilizing couches if needed.
Clean cute cabin.
Location to Rochester was an easy 20 minute drive. Cities along the Mississippi River were a 30 to 45 minute drive for shopping/site seeing/dining.
Owners replaced the coffee maker promptly the next day when I commented that it was not working correctly.
I was here 5 weeks while my husband had major surgery. If youâre wondering if itâs too far- itâs not. If youâre wondering if itâs too small- itâs not. Ignore the couple of bad reviews or comments. Some people just suck. My favorite rental Iâve ever stayed at. A little piece of Heaven after the stress of the hospital. Bill and bette were great and make sure to meet neighbor Sue, next door. Iâve made friends your life. Do yourself a favor and book.
Good times and pretty lake front. The cleaning solution was extremely strong when we arrived... I definitely recommend changing that to something much weaker. Otherwise everyone had a good time.
We had a great experience at the Cottage! Very peaceful and had a great homey feeling! Fence around the yard was awesome for our kids too. We spent days relaxing and swimming off the dock. We also fished and kayaked alittle bit too. Would highly recommend to anyone.
This cozy cottage on the lake had everything our group of 7 needed! Ideal for groups with lots of room to spread out inside with the use of the âbonus roomâ connected to the garage and numerous outside spaces to relax and enjoy the incredible view of the lake! The paddle boards and Maui Mat got lots of use! Appreciative of all the thoughtful touches that were provided! Communication with the host was quick and easy throughout our stay! We would definitely return!
The place was great! Everything that we needed for a great stay was there. We really enjoyed the entire location. A little hidden gem not far from home. Thanks for having us!
Great view of the lake, cozy, beds are super comfy kitchen is well stocked and has what you would need to enjoy a good meal⊠would have been nice to have access to TV we were there to recover from medical issues and not having that was rough but they did have videos so that helped⊠moving the smart TV would be a nice added bonus⊠overall a nice relaxing place
We loved staying at the Cottage on the Lake. Besides being lake side in a beautiful area, we loved all the little touches that made the place extra special, like having things we might have forgotten, such as sugar, coffee, shampoo, etc. The towels were maybe the softest, largest towels I've ever seen - and there were so many of them! The bird book and binoculars were another nice little touch. We are already planning our next trip to the Cottage for next year!
The property was clean and as described. We have a great and comfortable stay. There was plenty to do and they provided everything we needed for our stay. Would definitely recommend.
