About this property

Newly renovated w/Bar & Firepit on Full-Rec 5 Lake chain- Pet Friendly! Pontoon

You do NOT have to be way up north to feel like you are. Happy "OURS" Cottage is a year-round 3 bedroom, 2 full bath lake home located on a full recreation 5-lake chain on Morris Lake in Mt Morris, WI. Includes a 4-car tandem garage, a paddle boat, a single kayak, a double kayak, and boat dock with bench. (Separate rental fee for the Pontoon) Enjoy the beautiful summer days on the lake soaking up the sun, boating, skiing, fishing, tubing and making memories of a lifetime with your family. There is an amazing swimming beach a short 5 minute boat ride away that is crystal clear and sandy. This is also the lake that tubing and skiing is allowed. Pack a cooler with beverages and snacks and spend the day tied up to the shore (to the right of the swimming beach) enjoying the lake and sunshine. Sunset pontoon cruises are also a must! The fishing is great right off the dock and boaters fish in front of our cottage all year long. We provide yard games such as bag toss, ladder toss, giant jenga, and bocce ball for your use. The 2015 22' Harris Pontoon with new 90HP Mercury engine is available for rent Mid April through mid October. 3-7 night pontoon rentals will be available depending on your stay. This is a separate fee from the cottage rental and is NOT included in the cottage pricing. Please email us for pontoon pricing and also let us know when you book the cottage if you are also interested in renting the pontoon. This 4 season home offers winter activities also! Nordic Mountain is only 2 miles down the road if you love to snow ski or snowboard. There is also a tubing hill with lifts next to the ski hill. Maybe you want to snowmobile or ATV on the many trails around the area. And of course... the ice fishing is great right outside our door! You will not want to leave our recently added 4 season room (sunroom) with it's spectacular views of the lake and sunsets. The red leather sectional sofa in the sunroom is very comfy for that unexpected guest. The kitchen was completely renovated in December of 2025. Laundry room renovated April 2026 (Pictures do not reflect the new kitchen and laundry room renovation yet) New white shaker cabinets with dark walnut butcher block countertops, newer stainless appliances, new flooring in kitchen and LR, back splash and coffee bar!

Fabulous place with plenty of room for 7 of us. Very clean with lot's of extras, like games for all ages, firewood, fully equipped kitchen and extra refrigerator. Having the pontoon option was icing on the cake. We spent the majority of our time either fishing, swimming, or riding around looking for wildlife. It's a great place to make memories and the hosts were very accommodating and easy to communicate with.

Fun family getaway

We spent 3 days here and it was a fun stay on the water,. Our boys are 6 and 9 and they had a ton of fun in the water and at the nearby beach. At night, the grown ups enjoyed sitting by the fire. The place was well-stocked, we had everything we needed. Highly recommend!

Great family get away

We had a great time with our family of three teenagers on the lake. We really enjoyed boating, kayaking and all the water toys. The adults enjoyed the lake view off the patio and the teens enjoyed the game room. There was plenty of space for everyone.

Beautiful property! Owners were very welcoming and explained everything very well. Lake was beautiful! Although we couldn’t swim right off the dock there were still areas to swim. Loved the coffee shop and pub which were accessible by pontoon. Also enjoyed using the paddle boat and kayaks. Will definitely book again!

Tami and Tom were lovely to rent from. All questions answered quickly. Really pretty, well taken care of home. Very family and pet friendly! The air conditioners are located in the main bedroom and the kitchen but if you leave doors open they do a nice job of cooling the whole place. A garage to park in is so nice for packing. It’s not a great swimming lake near shore because of weeds but it’s so peaceful and pretty. There’s a sandy swimming area one lake over in the chain with a park(accessible by boat or car). Good BBQ place and lovely supper club nearby. Finally, that sunroom view!!! I watched an osprey catch a fish and fly off with it from the comfort of the sectional :) Highly recommend!

We celebrated our 40th Anniversary August 2025. We have 3 grown children and 3 grandchildren, with one more on the way in November of 2026. We love to travel, boat and camp with our family.

Why they chose this property

We had been searching for a rental property on a lake for several years. As soon as we walked into the beautiful sunroom with it's vaulted ceiling and walls made of pine and saw the lake, we knew "this is the one"! Every room, except the sunroom, has been completely renovated! We know that you will love Happy "OURS" Cottage as much as we do!

What makes this property unique

Peaceful and tranquil lake with fabulous views!
