This really is a fantastic place to go sit by the lake and relax. We also enjoyed the canoe, the fire pit, and the local pub and restaurant. We rented for five nights and we’re very happy.

Great cottage

We went for ice fishing - cottage was cute and had everything we needed. Great communication with hosts. It snowed a lot and they took care of the property well. But I am convinced there are no fish in Big Cobb! :)
