About this property

Charming lakeside cottage to watch nature play

We love our cottage because it's set right in the quaint little town - a hop skip and jump to the bakery, ice cream and coffee shops and great little restaurants but feels extremely private. The views from our cozy front porch make us never want to leave. We get a regular show of ever changing wildlife. The neighborhood is friendly, quiet and safe. My friends say it reminds them of a place a Hallmark movie would be made, and then... a movie was made next door this past winter :)

The beds are comfy and decor is modern but
homey. Fishing is right out the front door. In the evenings, we cast a line from the shore.

Come be our guests. We'd love for you to share our new guest home ❤️

VRBO LAKESIDE
This is a hidden gem. Beautiful 3 bedroom with the cutest decor, fully functional kitchen, air conditioned, front and back porch, TV, games, scented soaps, ; even Brita water filter pitcher! Walking distance to bakery, coffee shop, restaurant. Carmen could not have been nicer to work with. I love the town of Florence. The people are exceptionally nice.

Cute Cottage
We enjoyed the solitude of this home. it was clean and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen was fairly well supplied. The only problem was the sound of the ATV park accross the lake and the semi trucks ocassionaly going through town. I was disappointed that the lake was not swimable...I should have asked that before booking - my fault. All in all, nice place to stay and the owner was easy to work with!

Wonderful rental and area
This rental is one of the best VRBO's we have stayed at. The home is well maintained, clean and tastefully decorated. Very comfortable. Very nice kitchen. (I do not cook on vacation (!) so cannot comment but it seemed very well equipped). Master bedroom bed very comfortable ! Very quiet neighborhood and you are very close to town with great bakery, Michaela Mays and a very cute ice cream shop. Barb's Cafe great for breakfast. The cottage has beautiful lake views and a great porch to enjoy the views from. Fenced in back yard is also nice. The Florence county area is great for hiking, water activity (canoes, kayaks, etc.), rapids and waterfalls. We are already looking forward to coming back. We would definitely recommend.

Great View
Sitting on the porch looking at the lake in the morning with a cup of coffee here is just perfect. Brought the family up for a small vacation before going back to school and had an amazing time. Fishing is good. Beds are comfortable. The place is just wonderful. Will definitely be staying again.

Hidden Gem in Florence
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Everything was comfortable, well stocked and the location was perfect. We were able to walk to several places for coffee, breakfast and more. Our favorite activity was enjoying coffee on the covered porch overlooking the lake every morning.

Great stay in Florence, Wisconsin
My two adult sons live in Asia. We always get away from Madison for a few days, when they come back home. We had never been to this part of Wisconsin prior to this trip. We had a wonderful time at this beautiful location. The cottage is beautiful with a great front porch overlooking the lake. Carmen was very nice. Would highly recommend for some downtime.

Clean and cozy home
Beautiful, cozy home that feels very private. We brought a paddle board and kids had fun on the lake. Lake bottom has a lot of seaweed, but did not deter family from going out on paddle board. One block from ice cream shop and bakery. We would definitely stay there again.

The porch is heavenly!
We enjoyed the 4th at Carmen’s cottage. Much time was spent on the awesome porch. We also enjoyed floating in the lake and watching the fireworks over the water. The cottage was well stocked and absolutely spotless! Carmen is super at communicating with renters. Don’t hesitate to book this rental.

Cute, Quaint and Accomodating!
We stayed 2 nights, 12/30 & 12/31 for new years weekend. We are a band that had booked two separate shows each night, and needed somewhere to rest and refresh afterwards. Though the house is a trailer, it was the nicest updated trailer I’ve ever seen! The cleanliness was 10/10. Had a Keurig coffee maker, plenty of counter space and table room for entertaining, and enough for 3 couples to stay and have their own privacy. I loved the decor so much, I came home and bought myself a similar bowl that was in the kitchen! Though we didn’t have much time to spend and relax there, we noticed there were plenty of board games and movies to watch. The view was beautiful from the living room, overlooking a snow-covered lake. My only drawback was the water pressure & hot water running out in the showers, but for the price and comfort overall I would definitely recommend staying for a family or friends retreat! Hosts were very accommodating with check in and check out times. We couldn’t have had a better experience!

North woods retreat
We 3 sisters always do a fall retreat and this was everything we needed. This property was in a beautiful setting and close to eating establishments and grocery store. The house itself was very clean and very tastefully decorated . We did some waterfalls in the area and one day drove to Marquette Mi and explored that town. Just a relaxing time.

Great Place on a quite lake
We found the place very clean and relaxing. It has the feeling of privacy while being close to the downtown businesses. The house is very comfortable and the town is a very friendly place. Our host was very kind and responsive to any questions we had. We hope to be able to stay again and would highly recommend this place .
