The full size and twin size pull out beds allow you to bring guest along. Need to work? Do it with a view or forget it and take a kayak out on the lake for some R&R.
The space
Our little cottage is nestled next to a beautiful lake that creates some of most beautiful sunsets you can imagine. It’s property is surrounded with a chain link fence along with a gate and parking inside the fenced area.
Although small in size or cottage lives big with open concept living. Get a good night sleep on the king size bed located in a private bedroom. For extra sleeping spaces, pull out one or both of the two sofa beds in the living room area.
Enjoy your morning coffee on the back porch swing while watching the ducks swim by.
Then grab a kayak or the canoe and enjoy the lake from a different view. Love to fish? There are some nice size bass waiting for you to throw in your line. We do ask that you catch and release please.
After a full day of rest and relaxation, prepare dinner in the full kitchen where everything you need is provided except the food. We even provide a bottle of wine for your enjoyment.

Relaxing Getaway

We stayed here for a Florida Gators football game. It was nice to get back to such a peaceful place after all the activity. We didn't want to leave, wish we could have stayed longer!

Cozy Spot

Cute, quiet, and great for a couple just needing a night or two away from everything and everyone. Location is a little remote so grab snacks before you head in for the night. House was very clean and the lake view in the morning with our coffee was fantastic.

Great Lake Cottage

My husband and I spent the night here while passing through. It was so clean and cute. They really thought of everything. So quiet too. Nice and relaxing place to stay. The owners were great with communication too. They made the stay so easy.

Cozy, quiet and inspiring lake front retreat.

We had a wonderful visit! The cottage looks tiny from the exterior images but it has amazing spaces. There is not bit of wasted space in this cute cottage and every inch tastefully finished. There are several outdoor seating areas - the back gazebo is amazing. Our last morning was heavy rain, we set at the office lake front window enjoying our coffee & the view. I wished that I was a writer with that view as inspiration!

Exceeded my expectations!

Wow! Such an absolutely beautiful property and the views are spectacular. I wish that I could leave photos because the sunsets are stunning. The home was immaculate, and stocked up with more than you can imagine! The owners were quick to respond and I cannot wait to go back here again for my next seminar… I was there in from Thursday until Sunday, and I could’ve stayed there another week.

Nature Lovers Delight

Lake is literally right off the back deck. Hawk flew over the trees and landed on the antenna. Geese landed of the end of the dock. Blue heron fished along the shore. Bullfrogs serenade you. Turtles swim up to say Hi. Home has everything you need,except your food, and has lots of extras other homes dont provide (like laundry detergent and saran wrap.) They also provide a bottle if wine which paired perfect with the sunset!
