Lovely Property, Lake Just ok

Beautiful property, fully stocked with everything you could need. Very clean and very attentive host. The lake is clean with nice bottom but quite small, as are the other on the chain. The 1/2 bath is not quite a 1/2 bath.

This peaceful little place on the lake was wonderful!

Loved everything about our week at the sandy beach cottage! Beautiful property and location! It was clean, had a well-stocked kitchen, and lots of fun things to do. Thank you for sharing your "Little Slice of Heaven with us!"

Wonderful Lake House Getaway

The Lake House is perfect - just as advertised - with plenty of room for a family of 4+. There is a swimming area for small children, and it's close to the county park/beach. It's a peaceful location with lake access. Peggy and Steve are helpful and responsive to questions. I highly recommend this Lake House as a comfortable and relaxing getaway.

Beautiful Lake House

Communication before check-in was thorough and prompt. We arrived and had a very easy check in. The house was tidy and the landscaping/beach well tended to. The location on channel right next to lake is so peaceful with no wake rules (lake area allows wake 10am-5pm), but you can also see the people as they pass by on their pontoons. Boathouse is stocked with fishing/swimming/floating/lazing supplies. We had a wonderful stay and will definitely return.

Beautiful, peaceful cabin

Absolutely loved this cabin for my young family. We have 2 children (ages 3 and 5) and we found this cabin to be perfect for them. It had a smooth, paved walkway to the water, easy entry to the lake, shallow water (my 5 year old could touch until nearly the end of the pier), sandy area to play, lots of small pan fish under the dock, owners provided baby gates, and the set up of the house was perfect for kids. My boys also loved having various floaties, kayaks/SUP and sand toys to play with (all provided in the exterior shed). The owners were very responsive to emails and texts. Lovely to work with. We would highly recommend this to any family, especially those with young children. Town wasn’t very big but we did enjoy Bird Creek Park (playground + splash pad). Only “con” was the checkout process. I don’t mind cleaning whatsoever, but we did have to clean-clean after ourselves (cleaning the tub, toilet, vanity/mirror, vacuum, haul trash to waste site, etc.) For us it was minor but just not something I was used to. Will definitely stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Peggy and Stephen Beaver

Our family lives in Cedarburg, Wisconsin where we work and attend school.

Why they chose this property

We love visiting our lake house for pure relaxation, waterfront views and recreation. This part of the state is still relatively undiscovered, so it's like going up North without the drive and crowds. The home is very comfortable for family gatherings. It's located on a wonderful chain of lakes, with an ideal combination of no-wake and full-rec water fun. It's a properly insulated four season home for year-round comfort. The name "Hearthstone Place" reflects the values of home life and a place to gather around.

What makes this property unique

Views of the lake are wonderful. Facing South, the deck is canopied by mature hardwood trees with sun in the morning and cool shade during the day. The variety of birds you can see is surprising, ranging from hummingbirds to bald eagles. Its lake front location delivers the best of two worlds. The beach is on a quiet no-wake section of the lake, with easy access to the full-rec section of the lake by boat to enjoy tubing and water skiing. The no-wake section of the lake in front of the property is great for paddle sport activities any time of day. The beach is sandy and firm with clear water for swimming. The property is located adjacent to Mt. Morris County Park and Nordic Mountain providing easy access to hiking and mountain biking trails, winter skiing, and tubing.
