Great property and great hosts! Hosts were very communicative and even left us a welcome package, as well as lots of information about the area. We would definitely stay here again when we come back to the Sister Lakes area.

We were in Sister Lakes for a family reunion, this cottage was perfect for our stay. Clean, comfortable and nicely decorated too. Owners were so easy to work with and left snacks and coffee which was a thoughtful perk. We also enjoyed the deck in the back. All and all it was all just great!

Destination Wedding

We were in the area to attend a wedding on a nearby lake. The cottage is located within walking distance of 3 different lakes. There is a small restaurant, coffee shop, and ice cream store with outside seating on a lake within a quarter mile. The host did a great job decorating the home with the cottage/lake feel. They really thought of everything- cushions for chairs to sit on the back deck, firewood for the fire pit, and kitchen stocked with appliances. We enjoyed our stay. Thanks!
