About this property
Lakefront Cottage with Gorgeous Sunsets
Great cottage so close to the water you can fish right off the deck, bring your boat right up to the dock and drive it all over the chain of lakes and out to dinner. Piers stay in until end of October usually. Endless things to do on the chain, tons of restaurants, sand bars, fishing, bars, boats, etc. Then watch the sunset at the beach right outside your door before retreating for the night into the cottage. The home has everything you need in a cozy package. Plus it has a fenced in yard with a fire pit to enjoy the evenings. The yard is shared with myself, and a few other tenants but its yours to use.
