Whether you`re a wine enthusiast, a golfing fan, a shopping aficionado, a fishing fan, or someone who loves exploring the lake, this charming 2-story lake cottage is your ideal vacation haven.
Nestled by the water`s edge, Castaway is conveniently located near the scenic SML State Park.

The dock, positioned in deep water, is perfect for water sports and fun. It is a no-wake cove. The outdoor spaces offer numerous options for dining, entertainment, woodland creature-watching adventures, or simply unwinding while taking in the serene lake surroundings.
For those seeking boating adventures, several local marinas are just a short distance away, accessible within 10 minutes by both boat and car. Whether it`s Parkway, Mitchell`s, or the SML State Park, each destination offers boat rentals. The State Park goes the extra mile with hiking and biking trails, providing the perfect opportunity to enjoy some wildlife.
