Feel like you are in the mountains out West but you are really on beautiful Lake Williamstown in this rustic, yet completely remodeled cabin that sits amongst the tree tops.The cabin is on a quiet gravel road which provides a great setting for morning or evening walks with often catching glimpses of deer. Williamstown lake offers 350 surface acres of water with 32 miles of shoreline.
You will love the comfort of the cabin accents and antique and practical furniture. We provide a fully stocked kitchen, with everything you need, from a coffee maker, blender, and gas grill. The deck, with a large picnic table, and sitting chairs, stays shaded well into the evening but the dock provides plenty of sun for those working on their tan. There is a view of the water from all points on the deck.
The water is less than 60 feet from the deck, with very manageable steps. We provide a Dock area to tie a boat (23-foot limit, jet skis are also allowed} There is swimming right off the dock with a ladder for easy access to and from the water. The public boat ramp is less than 2 minutes from the cabin. They rent a slip are at their dock as well. We provide a row boat and life vests. For those cool off-season evenings,we have a gas burning fireplace in the cabin.
Also, there is a fire ring with benches outside {With some fire wood available). Just 10 minutes from town, are restaurants, shopping, hiking trails, skateboard park, and many other attractions. For more to do in the area visit the Grant County tourism website.
We nicknamed the cabin "Sunset Cabin" for the beautiful view of a Kentucky sunset.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
The cottage belongs to a member of a family that has been going to the lake for 40 years. She, along with her siblings always would visit her grandparents on the lake.
Now all these family members and their respective families have places on Williamstown Lake.
Why the Owner Chose Williamstown
Initially the cottage was very accessible and had all the amenities. In addition, it could be easily restored to a comfortable, charming and rustic feel that a lakeside cottage should have.
This particular cove on the lake has a unique vantage point for sunsets. Also, the dock area is easily accessible and a safe place to swim.
And it is in a quiet location on this lake.
The Unique Benefits of this Cabin
The people here and those that visit love the fun and relaxation that is enjoyed at the lake.
When we come and go, we are refreshed from our time here.
Morning walks, deer sightings, the fish that got away, the thrill of boating and the refreshing swims are all the amenities that motivate all to keep coming to this lake.

Great lake, great dock with great access and just enough things around the area to do … This is exactly what my husband and I needed to get away. The cottage is very nice and it truly is a restful place at a very nice lake. We will definitely be back and are planning to come here more than once a year. THANKS !!! :)

We stayed here for my girlfriend's 40th birthday party and absolutely loved it. Less than an hour drive from Cincinnati and close to I-75. This little cabin was a gem...very clean, just the right size for our party of 6 people and all the amenities were provided. All we had to do was show up! I have been to Norris Lake in Tennessee multiple times, but had never heard of Williamstown Lake. I was pleasantly surprised to find such a nice lake so close to Cincinnati. We will definitely be back and look forward to staying here again!

We had a great time, house very clean & comfortable. Alot of steps, not for elderly. Only thing I saw, could use some kind of railings on the steps to the lake. But other than that, very nice. Might go back next year. Would recommend to friends and family

We just loved the cabin. It was fun to sit around the fire pit and tell stories. The road was really quiet to walk on and we even saw some deer. The owner did a great job with decorating the cabin. Very comfortable. tricia roger and family. Louisville Ky

We enjoyed the five days we spent here very much. The cabin is a delightful place to stay, very thoughtfully decorated with everything we needed. The dock is great to swim off of and we used the boat lift for our boat. The view off of the deck is great, and we enjoyed eating dinner out there in the evening. We definitely want to visit again.

I love the autumn weather down at the lake. We had a bon fire in the evening. The kids felt like they were really out in the wilderness. We took a walk in the morning and saw a deer. It was really nice just to hang out and relax. They want to go back to the cabin in the summer, so they can swim. The Copenhaver's Cincinnati, Ohio
