The highlight of this property is its unparalleled proximity to the water. Kosh Kottage is situated just feet from the lake, offering a unique advantage as newer homes can't be built this close. Completely remodeled and modern, this home combines the charm of its prime location with all the conveniences of contemporary living. The views from the deck and inside the house are simply incredible, allowing you to soak in the beauty of the lake from sunrise to sunset. Imagine sitting in the hot tub with lake views enjoying the night sky.
The shoreline features retaining rocks (not a sandy beach) but offers easy access for swimming right off the dock. The bottom by the dock is typically weed-free and sandy with a gradual drop-off, making it perfect for swimming and water activities. Plus, we provide two kayaks for guests to use during their stay.
Fishing enthusiasts will love Lake Koshkonong, known for its excellent walleye fishing and abundance of panfish, bass, and northern pike. Whether you prefer a self-guided trip or want to take advantage of local fishing guides, the lake offers fantastic opportunities for anglers of all levels.
For outdoor enthusiasts, bring your boat and take advantage of the private dock available during your stay. Lake Koshkonong, a 10,000-acre lake, also features six different restaurants accessible by boat and a popular sandbar where swimmers and parties gather every weekend. The lake connects to the Rock River, allowing for scenic boat rides up to the Indianford Dam.
Within a two-hour drive from Chicago O'Hare, Kosh Kottage is the perfect escape from the city. Explore the local area with its charming restaurants accessible by boat or car, winery tours, and fantastic shopping.
This home, with all new furnishings, is managed by Manage Cabins, LLC, ensuring a seamless and comfortable stay. Book your stay at Kosh Kottage today and experience the best of lake life!
Security Camera Disclosure: For guest safety and property security, Kosh Kottage is equipped with a Ring doorbell at the front entrance, as well as two exterior security cameras—one facing the lake and front entrance, and another facing the driveway and side entrance.
