Hello!

We are Bill & Bette, owners of The Cottage on Lake Zumbro!

We have been members of this lake community for over 20 years now and have loved to call this place our home away from home. We have enjoyed our children growing up coming to this lake every summer and have countless memories here spent on the water, pontooning, waterskiing, and enjoying this property.

We hope you find this property as special as we have and choose to spend time here with your family and friends!
