Our stay was amazing. We were celebrating my wife’s birthday and Tammie went above and beyond to make it a special visit. We went between Christmas and new years and the Christmas decorations were awesome. We have a family of 5 and there was plenty of room for everyone, the boys absolutely loved the rooms on the third floor. The whole property had a very peaceful feel, we really enjoyed it and planned to come back again.

We had the best time! We enjoyed fishing, kayaking, paddle boating, playing on the leap pad, and playing games at night. It was a very peaceful place and my kids begged to stay longer. I wish we could have. It was such an inviting place to be. We will definitely book again in the future!

Wonderful Relaxing Lake A-Frame

My wife and I were very happy to be the first vacationers to this listing. Miss Tammi worked very hard to make sure our stay was pleasant. The lake is very calm and great for kayaking and paddle-boarding. Great sea food a short drive away. The bed was extremely comfortable. We look forward to returning for another stay.

Great little cottage!

Everything about the cottage is unique. There's plenty of room with the way it's laid out, too. Tammie was very accommodating. I'll definitely be back again and next time, maybe I'll have a chance to fish.

My family and I had the best time spending the weekend at this precious little cottage! It was clean and had everything we needed. The owner Tammie is so kind and helpful and even left us some gifts!

Lovely cottage on the lake

Loved watching the sun set across the lake while sitting on the comfortable dock each night. Enjoyed the gentle breeze across the water. Visiting the area in June from Texas, we marvelled at the lack of mosquitoes. Cottage was comfortably cooled by several window A/C units and ceiling fans. The cottage was cozy yet spacious enough for visiting. Comfortable beds and lovely decor. Recommend this as a very relaxing place to stay!

Amazing experience!

I can’t say enough good things about Tammie and our stay at the cottage. It’s a unique property that was so cozy and perfect for us. The kids absolutely loved the loft area and being able to kayak and fish every day. It’s such a peaceful and beautiful place. Tammie went above and beyond multiple times to ensure we had the best time possible. So grateful. We will return!

Loved it!

We loved our stay and were so sad to leave! The owner was a great communicator and left us gifts as we were celebrating a graduation and a birthday. We did a beach day and a couple New Orleans days. Sitting on the dock and watching my kids kayak was my favorite part, so very peaceful. Would love to stay again! :) everything we could have needed was provided. Very thankful for our time at the cottage on the lake!

Charming Cottage!

This is such a charming, cozy little cottage! The space may be tight, but each room is furnished with an eye to comfort and the maximizing of space. Comfort and efficiency are in abundance! Both the exterior and interior are light and airy. You just walk in and smile because it’s so adorable! Attention, tall people and klutzes: Watch your head and watch your step, and enjoy the views!

Perfection

This was a wonderful experience! The owners supplied everything you could possibly need for a fantastic weekend. They also decorated the house for Christmas. Every room had a personal touch. When my teenage nieces arrived, they immediately said "Meme, this is incredible." We had such a nice, relaxing weekend, and we will certainly be back.

Lake cottage.

A-frame home on the lake, has paddle boats, kayaks and an area for a camp fire! My grandkids, my son and I had a blast. Big yard with other yard games available that kept the children occupied. They did not want to leave. My two granddaughters especially like the top floor which they took over and made it the “Girls Only Room”
