***Rates that are listed are beginning rates during the 'Off-season'. Please contact owner for questions.
VERY IMPORTANT!! Because VRBO's format does not allow an accurate break-down of the rates for the on-season, off-season, weeknights, weekends and weekly's-ALL RATES ARE APPROX. Often times, we can offer a better rate than what is depicted as when additional guests are added, it can come out with quite a difference in the rate. So, please contact us for the exact amount depending on your dates, number of guests and which home you would like. IN MOST CASES, IT WILL BE MUCH CHEAPER THAN WHAT the rates will compute through VRBO/in some cases, it will be more. We apologize for any inconvenience. The rates for additional guests is obviously more during the "On-season" but VRBO does not have an option for this. Also, for a weekly rental, the 20% offered, does not include the additional guests so the rate you will be quoted will be quite a bit higher than it actually is. Please contact us and we can let you know exactly what the rate is (not including VRBO's fee).
There is a Cancellation Fee of $100 if you cancel after booking, that is separate from VRBO's policy.

We loved it as soon as we opened the door to step into this beautiful private cabin with views of the lake or woods from every window. Host was very accommodating.
Serenity Lake lives up to its name and the bear cottage was beyond our expectations. Peaceful and private setting. Our host was always available and checked in to see if we needed anything during our stay. We enjoyed a relaxing vacation!
The cabin was clean and was very roomy! Beautiful fall views and perfect for a little get away, can’t wait to come back in the summer to utilize the lake more! Host was responsive and extremely nice!
Had a very relaxing peaceful stay. Lots of wildlife around and if you are interested in seeing stars at night, this is the place. Would for sure come again
