(Small but all the necessities you will need). The bookshelf has modern reading, magazines as well as children's books. New mattresses, microwave, stove, refrigerator, air, heat. Clean and neat! Drinking water is good to drink, many guests have commented how fresh the water is. There is a game shelf loaded with games for hours of fun for the entire family. "Collect memories-not things." At the boat dock are picnic tables for a bird eyes view of the lake. Launching motor boats are NOT permitted-it is a private dock for the locals. Kayaking is always permitted. Talking about birds, be on the outlook for eagles which frequently fish in the lake. Their nests are located in State Game Lands as well at the Bluffs, and pass by our area every day. There is also an outdoor picnic table at the side of the cottage and a gas grill for outdoor cooking. Back deck has its own round table for outdoor games or picnics. Raccoon creek, Walnut creek and Crooked creek are close by for good fishing.
The cabin in located close to the lake in a community of what use to be only summer homes, now transforming into some year round but still some strictly summer homes. The winding dirt road that leads back to the hidden community is a hidden secret for a time of relaxation with your family or a couples get away. New is an outdoor shower-get connected to nature!!! Take a shower while watching the birds fly over!

Great Little Cabin

My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary. Its a cute little cabin with a wonderful outdoor shower as an added bonus. The cabin is minutes from the Ohio border and you can see the lake from the back deck. There are a lot of great things to do in the area. We did the Erie Zoo, Football Hall of Fame, Presque Isle, and the Classic Car Museum. Lynn came to greet us soon after we unpacked. She gave a lot of great recommendations for activities and places to eat in the area. She was very responsive to all of our questions. She lives in the area as well. We felt very comfortable knowing she was nearby if we needed her. Ask Lynn about her about her Eagle pictures!

The perfect getaway

The cabin was just as described, maybe even better. We loved everything about it. The hosts were super nice and greeted us as soon as we got there. Check in was a breeze and in seconds we were exploring the cabin and the lake. You can see the lake from the swing behind the cabin and it is a short 2 minute walk down the hill to see and experience it all. My wife and I loved sitting in the swing and just enjoying the view. The back patio was perfect for having our breakfast every morning. The beds were very comfy and the cabin was always the perfect temperature. We had a nice bonfire and made s'mores at night and also enjoyed playing Yahtzee in the cabin. They have shelves full of games to choose from. The area is secluded (which we loved) but also only a 10-20 minute drive to shopping, restaurants and even wineries in Ohio. We loved everything about the cabin and the location and look forward to returning as soon as we can.

Lots of charm!

This little neighborhood has so much charm! We loved the evenings watching the sunset over the lake. The cabin is cozy, clean, and equipped with everything needed to enjoy a vacation. It’s not a far drive to all the amenities of Erie, but there is lots to do closer to the cabin too.

Weekend birthday celebration

Clean, convenient to restaurants, grocery stores and ice cream shops! Also just a 15-20 min drive to fun activities in Erie. Nice neighborly atmosphere in a woodsy setting. We’re planning to return next year!

Relaxing Getaway from Pittsburgh

Lynn and Mac have created a lovely, warm, newly renovated space. It was the perfect relaxing getaway from Pittsburgh where we could celebrate my son’s 6th birthday. They had everything we needed. Lynn communicated beforehand to give me directions since the GPS location isn’t to the exact house location. We enjoyed hanging out in Erie for a couple of days, which was about 30 min away. Grateful to have this place to connect with family and de-stress.

About the host

Hosted by Mac and Lynn Caldwell

Mark and Linda purchased the property in 2018 and remodeled it beginning in the spring of 2019. The complete renovation provides the perfect cabin to come home to after a long days adventure. The cabin/cottage is basically both. It is near the lake but also near the woods so if you are a lake lover or a woodsy person- We have the best of both worlds for you. The cabin is on top of a slight hill so that the other cottages are far below. complete privacy, but not isolation. The cabin was completely renovated with ceiling taken out for vaulted cedar ceiling and beautiful hickory hardwood floors. Clean and safe for the kids.

Why they chose this property

The property is tucked away, with a view of the lake on one side and the woods on the other. Enjoy a fire in the fire pit at night-or relax in the hammock in the woods after a long day sight seeing. Covered bridges are in Conneaut Ohio for a unique excursion. Presque Isle is not too far away. The attic was taken out to add to the dimensions of the cabin. Beautiful cedar ceiling and hickory cabinets and solid hardwood hickory flooring adds to the feel of the log cabin. The cabin is small but enough room inside and spacious property outside with firepit to roast marshmallows and hammock in the woods for relaxing. The cottage sits back, on top of a slight hill so that the other cottages are below. Privacy but not isolation. Turn one way and you can enjoy the lake, turn the other way and you see the woods which has a stream. Whether you are a fisherman looking for a retreat after fishing, a family looking for a great escape, of a cozy couples getaway, this cabin offers it all. Located between great fishing places-Crooked Creek/ Raccoon Creek/ Elk Creek- great fishing getaways.

What makes this property unique

The cottage is located by Crooked creek, Raccoon creek, Walnut creek and by the State Game Lands. Perfect for fishing and hunting. View the lake from the front window and walk a short distance to the lake. Woods are in the back yard. A rare find- both woods and lake at your fingertips.
