Built by the Pabst Brewing Family, Pine Ridge is one lakefront Cottage available for short-term stays. One-half mile off the main road, 18 acres of forest surround the Cottage. With frontage on a small, private lake and a lovely in-ground pool in the woods, our guests enjoy peace and privacy at this secluded retreat.
The owners live in a separate home on the property. Accommodating only one guest party at a time, they invite guests at the Cottage to enjoy the in-ground pool exclusively, along with use of the private lake.
Cottage amenities include:
- A fully equipped kitchen & dining area for all your cooking needs. An outdoor grill with charcoal is also provided. The kitchen is stocked with traditional breakfast foods for your own preparation. Breakfast includes bacon, eggs, pancake mix, sausage, milk, orange juice, coffee/tea, bread, cereal, fruit, etc.
- Private enjoyment of the lovely in-ground pool & pool house in the woods. Truly relax...the pool is 20x40 feet with a deep end of 9 feet. The pool house is an airy, furnished room that is surrounded on 3 sides by forest, with the 4th side facing the pool. A full refrigerator/freezer and comfortable teak furnishings on the pool deck allow for an enjoyable day and/or early evening at poolside.
- Use of the private lake. A leisurely row on the peaceful lake before retiring will make for a relaxing evening and a good night's rest. Enjoy the row boat or paddle boat, along with our 12 foot pier. Fishing usually provides an abundant catch of bass, bluegill and perch! No fishing license is required. Or, simply take in the quiet and natural beauty of the lake. Due to the fact that the Cottage is centered on 18 heavily wooded acres, there is not an expansive view of the lake from the Cottage. However, it is directly on the lake and a peaceful walking path through the natural wooded property, partially down a steep hill, will get you to the lake in about 5 minute's time at a leisurely pace. The lake is about 30 acres in size, not condusive to power boating. Without a sand beach or bottom, it's enjoyed by those who'd like a quiet setting for fishing and/or viewing a wide variety of plants & animals in their natural environment.
- A private deck off the Cottage and amongst the trees creates a peaceful setting for evening cocktails or your first morning coffee. Although not guaranteed, guests who are quiet and watchful often take pleasure in being "at one with nature" in the forest. It's not unusual for them to see deer, woodchucks, red fox, wild turkeys, owls, cranes, geese, ducks including wood ducks in trees, humming birds, hawks, owls, and other smaller animals and plants in their natural environment.
- Bed linens and towels are provided, along with wood for the fireplace, in season.
- Sleeps 4 comfortably, up to a maximum of 8 guests.
