About this property

Summer Sojourn - the Perfect "Stay" for your Vacation

The "Summer Sojourn" is the quintessential Hamlin Lake cottage. It is nestled in the hillside of a residential area with a direct west view of Hamlin Lake. The interior emphasizes the cottage look and feel while providing a comfortable stay. The living room has a sectional and chairs for relaxing and TV viewing or you can choose the second sitting room which has a wall of windows to view the beautiful sunsets. The two dining room tables provide plenty of space for meals and family activities such as games or puzzles.

The kitchen is full stocked with everything you should need for meal preparation. The gas grill is just outside the kitchen door for grilling convenience. We will provide a full tank of propane for the grill and grilling utensils.

The yard offers ample space for sunset viewing, outdoor enjoyment and toasting marshmallows around the firepit. Adirondack chairs are provided for seating around the firepit. The garage provides direct access to the lower level of home and can be used for covered seating during inclement weather or storage for all your vacation necessities. Garage has a full size ping-pong table for your use also.

We provide all your bed linens, bath towels, and kitchen towels. For your convenience, we also provide a array of sundry items including toilet paper,tissues, paper towels, trash bags, dishwasher & washing detergent pods, dryer sheets, dish soap & hand soap for kitchen & bathroom. Cable TV and WIFI will be provided through Spectrum.

We are a short 5 miles from Downtown and the State Park. Boat rental opportunity is just down the street.

Our home does not have central air conditioning. We do provide fans for each of the bedrooms and living areas. Usually there is a breeze off the lake which helps cool the home.

We strive to provide our guests with an exceptional experience and do our best to accommodate requests. We will personally meet you when you arrive to welcome you to our cottage along with having fresh baked goods just for you.

In reviewing our calendar, if your dates do not appear available or you have any questions please contact me to discuss. I also have several other homes in the Hamlin Lake area which may be available for your dates or if you need additional space. We do make exceptions for stays shorter during our off-season.

We value all our guests! We are available at all times to address any issues that may arise or recommendations you may need. .

Relaxing lake home
The lakehouse was cute and had a lot of space for only 2 people. Even though some of the furnishings were slightly outdated, everything was SUPER clean which I liked. I knew when I booked that there was no a/c in this house which I thought would be fine, but had a hard time the first night; the remainder of the time was great though with all the windows open. Marta was a great host and left cookies for us!

Nice choice for a relaxing & scenic home away from home!
Our impression was a sweet, cozy cabin near the water. Our stay felt like a step back into a simpler time. No fancy amenities, but a clean cabin, comfortable beds and a nice yard to build a fire or just relax with a good book. Our hostess was quickly responsive to our questions & needs during our stay.
