The place was perfect for a weekend away in the fall. The property was clean and comfortable, and we really enjoyed time spent in the screened in porch and back patio. I would highly recommend to any others looking for a great place to stay on Cedar Lake in Nashua.

Great location being on the lake was a bonus good views. We didn't use hot tub or get into the lake because of the season but very nice to have that option .This small cottage worked great for our short visit to Ia to see family

What a lovely home this is! The views are spectacular. The home is clean and well maintained. Bed and furniture are comfortable. The back porch is a haven. Peaceful, quiet neighborhood. Close to larger cities if needed. Sharon is delightful- respectful and an excellent communicator. Will definitely stay again. 5 stars- thanks for sharing your home!!

The screened patio is truly bug-free, the hot tub is clean and super easy to use, and the house was very clean. The kids and my husband loved that they could fish RIGHT there. It didn't seem like the best spot to swim, but we took a quick drive to the other side of the lake so the kids could swim at the small beach we saw from the house. Which turned out to be a double-win because the park by the beach has a splash pad and playground. The coffee shop in town was great, too.

This house has it all! Lots of vacation rentals have great listings, but this one actually lives up to the hype! It’s clean, updated, and spacious, with very comfortable furniture. There are multiple areas for eating, sleeping, and hanging out. Every part of this house is roomy, comfy, and well stocked! The host has provided everything you might need, and yet the house feels serene and uncluttered. The neighborhood seems very safe and the town of Nashua has a few options for stores, fast food, restaurants, parks, and tourist attractions if you feel like venturing out. This property is chock full of amenities! There are lots of activities included - kayaks, canoe, bicycles, floating lily pad, outdoor games, indoor games, etc. And if chilling out is more your thing, there is a hot tub (super clean!), fire pit, furnished screened in porch, large sectional and smart TV in the living room, king size bed and smart TV in the bedroom, books & magazines provided, and several cozy spots (inside & outside) to sit and enjoy the beautiful views of the lake! My best friend and I stayed here for a little fall retreat last week and we didn’t want to leave! Can’t wait to come back for another stay!
