Cute Cottage not on the Lake

This house was lovely and slept a lot of people. The open floor plan is spacious. The house is not on the lake but across the street and there are other houses hiding any view. Access is available but a little awkward. There were a lot of ants as well.

About the host

Your host

I enjoy offering our place here on Pretty Lake because growing up around summer fun up here was pretty terrific!

Why they chose this property

The lake is an all-sport lake! Offering fishing, watersports, boating and swimming. Nice size for watching the family play and seeing across the lake. The water is nice, and the frontage offers sandy walking out front.
The cottage is across from the water. It's divided by a gravel road. But you're welcome to come across to the front by walking up to the white cottage. Either side will take you to the front so you can enjoy the lake. I provide and area there for you to hang out at.
You're welcome to take the paddle bike, rowboat and kayaks out. I just ask that they get put back the way you found them. If you have questions on anything don't hesitate to reach out to me.

What makes this property unique

It's pretty close to the westside of the Sate and a quick drive up north farther which makes for great day trips.
