Such a fun and beautiful property! Perfect for teaching our 4 year old grandson Ford how to fish. He caught so many fish on the boat and off the dock. Such a relaxing place.

Best value on Rose Lake

3 friends spent a fabulous week relaxing in a very comfortable cottage. Cottage was stay ready, really just food and personal items were needed. Pontoon boat was so comfortable and started right up. We loved the porch and rockers every morning and evening! Would highly recommend this cottage! Thanks for a great stay.

Great cottage

Our family has rented this cottage for the past few years. The place is always clean when we arrive and the owners have been wonderful to work with. We are a rather large crew and Eric and Devin have been very accommodating to our large family. Beautiful frontage and a large yard to play games with the family. We look forward to returning again next year.

This is our second year staying at this lovely lake home. The setting is beautiful, the home is very comfortable and clean, we so appreciate this property. Well kept up and very nicely appointed. The lake is lovely, so great to have the pontoon boat included so my husband was able to fish. We hope that we will be able to return again next year! Peaceful setting to return to again and again!

Grandchildren visit

I’m loathe to give this wonderful gem such a glowing and fabulous review as I’ll never be able to book it again! Quaint-the complete experience was flawless and the pictures can’t convey the clean and simple functionality and comfort of this little beach house. Be back soon to visit the grandchildren again. Can’t wait!

Holiday at the Lake

We spent the week here last week. The property is immaculate. I have never seen a VRBO property as updated and clean as this. And that is not to say other properties are horrid, this property is just exceptional. Everything we needed was available in the kitchen and laundry. The view from the living room, the deck, the back yard, and the pontoon boat make this a great choice for you and your family! We were able to catch many different types of fish each day, go for boat rides morning and night, and swim in the cool waters of the deep lake just around the corner from the dock. The owners were super helpful and have a place nearby which was reassuring. You won't be disappointed!

Perfect Summer Getaway

We had a great stay on Rose Lake! The lake view when you walk in is stunning. The pontoon boat being included in the rental is really what made it special since it allowed us to explore, swim, and fish at any time all around the lake. There are a couple coves with fewer houses that are great swimming spots. Water temperature was perfect for us, and we lucked out with the weather. We found the lake to be a great size for us. It was quiet and peaceful during the week, with increased activity on the weekend, but never crowded. The cottage was modern, clean, and very comfortable for our group. We loved the views and being able to enjoy the porch. It provided a much needed relaxing vacation. It was also great having easy access to laundry. My only recommendations are to be sure you bring all toiletries (hand soap provided), laundry soap, and extra toilet paper and paper towels (starter pack provided), depending on your length of stay. We hope to be back!
