Come enjoy the fully renovated little Bear cottage in Russell’s Point just a few blocks from the water (3 blocks from the spillway), less than a mile from restaurants, 20 minutes to the ski resort, and a short trip to the beach for swimming and the boat dock. (Closest boat ramp is Moundwood 1.9 miles away) Little Bear Cottage is only 520 square feet but every inch has been remodeled and redecorates as modern farmhouse with a masculine touch. There is a queen bed in each of the two bedrooms. Enjoy the over stuffed overly warn leather sofa, farmhouse kitchen sink, and abundance of pillows and comfort. You will not be disappointed with the charm and details of our quant cottage. There is a huge outdoor deck with a propane fire table for relaxing and a fire pit for roasting marshmallows at night. A propane grill is on the front deck also.
The cottage is located about 3 blocks from a couple great fishing spots that can be reached on foot or driving.
The kitchen is equipped with an apartment sized stove and fridge, a coffee maker, microwave, and cooking essentials. We provide pots and pans, silverware, cooking utensils, bottle opener, knives, cutting boards, salt and pepper. On the coffee car we have at least two types of coffee with creamer, sugar, and low calorie sweetener.
Each of the two bedrooms has a queen sized bed. These rooms are tight with about 20 inches on each sized of the bed. We have many hooks no the walls to hang bags and clothing.
The only heat source is an open propane heater In the living room. It warms the cottage up fast and extremely warm if needed but I’m the heater can get HOT. Caution with touching or having small children near it to avoid burns.
The cottage has a window A/C unit and multiple fans. At just over 500 square feet, the A/C unit keeps it cool and comfortable.
The driveway is a total length of 42 feet and gravel. There is no guest access to the garage.
We love to offer a place for families to bring their dogs! We want you to enjoy your entire family on vacation, so bring your fur babies. We have a one time $50 fee for dogs to stay. (Up to 2 dogs)

Great stay Everything u needed and more peaceful spot.Wii try to rent again next year.I rate it as a 5*.Gated deck was a plus for pets and would be great for little ones 2.
It was a wonderful experience at a prime location! The home was small, but plenty of room for the two of us. The lake community is wonderful and it was peaceful and felt completely safe sitting on the deck with the fire table at night. The local root beer stand, the Indian Lake store & Winner’s Market are all a must see! Rock the Lake was an awesome event! Thanks!
We had a wonderful time this last weekend! The house was great and perfectly located for our needs. Appreciate all the great communication throughout the journey.
Very nice little cottage, walking distance to water, nice neighborhood tavern "LuLu's on the Lake" Making a good recovery from recent tornado-neighbors helping neighbors!
I would stay here again!
We rode pass the property once looking for it of the opposite side of the street When we did spot the location our eyes were delighted as we smiled and laughed with joy we loved how cozy it was on both the inside outside. Enjoy this cozy and clean home. We enjoyed grilling and had sum cocktails on the side played tic tac toe the a movie to end the night. I appreciate Mr.Wesley for letting us borrow his home. We will RETURN!
We really enjoyed the little house. The field out back was great to run the Vizslas!

About the host
Hosted by Wesley Bolton
My wife and I are just starting our hand at short term rentals! We are very excited to offer short term fully furnished homes for people to vacation in. I am a Robotics and Maintenance Technician and my fiancé is a Dental Hygienist. We are both fairly young in our careers and were looking for additional streams of revenue. When we saw the cottage for the first time we loved it and thought that you would too!
Why they chose this property
This property is in a quiet neighborhood, it backs up to a farm, has an oversized yard, and only a few blocks from the lake and downtown. It’s just the right size to get away and be together with family, friends, and loved ones.
What makes this property unique
Experience a small piece of Indian lake in a small updated cottage on the edge of town next to a corn field.
