It a cute and comfortable place to stay. Quiet and right on the lake. Perfect for 2 people.Out far enough from town to be quiet but minuets away from Oaklawn Park (Which is where we went on Sat) and other shops and restaurants. We slept really well. Comfortable and clean. We plan to stay again!

Great little cottage

This cottage was a perfect getaway for two, very clean. The views where spectacular. Was very comfortable sitting on porch with cup of coffee every morning. Easy access to lake for a swim every day, we were able to do a little fishing as well. Location was perfect tucked away but very close to main strip

Quiet place on the side of Lake Hamilton that isn't so busy. Covered parking was a plus and the accommodations were nice. It's in a gated community so no worry about a lot of traffic.
