About this property

Charming Lake Cottage ★ Queen Bed ★ Chain O Lakes

Outdoor enthusiasts will be delighted with this romantic 1 bedroom lake cottage that sleeps 4. The fall colors, hiking, and nature setting is especially breathtaking this time of year. Walk down to the lake to enjoy boating, swimming, fishing, and more. Experience all the comforts of home in this newly remodeled cottage desirably located on Lippincott Point. Perfect for romantic getaways, gathering with friends by the lakeside fire pit, boating “the chain” and all that lake life has to offer!

The space
We always have the place professionally cleaned between guests, but now our cleaning team is paying special attention to sanitizing commonly touched areas such as door knobs, light switches and remotes.

The area by the lake front where the fire pits and pier are located is a shared area with the four short term rental units that are on the property. There is a small neighborhood park right next to the property that has a sandy beach that is good for swimming. We highly recommend hard bottom swim socks or old gym shoes when swimming in the lake.

There are four adult sized kayaks and two kid sized kayaks down by the lake front. They are free to use for all the guests at the property... we ask that everyone share boat time with each other! Please wear the provided life jackets when going out in the kayaks.

Tasteful furnishings and lake home inspired decor make the home feel warm and inviting. Modern conveniences like appliances and expansive countertop space provide the convenience you need in your home-away-from-home.

Make yourself comfortable in the welcoming living area, where you’ll find a lavish new sofa set in front of a large flat-screen TV. For your viewing pleasure, watch your favorite movies or local channel programming on YouTube TV. Netflix, Hulu, and Prime are conveniently accessible as well. Need to get some work done? Feel free to utilize the dedicated high-speed WiFi.

Just off of the living room you’ll be delighted with the newly remodeled kitchen that comes fully equipped with new stainless refrigerator and freezer, including a full suite of new appliances. Enjoy home cooked meals in a well-lit dining table beautifully set for 6. Feel free to fire-up the gas grill and enjoy some home-cooked cuisine out on the comfortably furnished deck with seating for 6. The deck has solar lights to automatically light your way in the evening.

This well-outfitted one bedroom lake home comfortably accommodates 4 guests, including a memory foam queen bed. What's more, a fold-out queen sofa bed features, you guessed it, super comfy memory foam for your snoozing pleasure. Tastefully decorated with bright new furnishings you’ll be charmed with this abode as you fall into a peaceful slumber.

No need to fumble with keys and lock boxes as this rental is equipped with quick & easy keyless entry. Our cleaning team is taking extra steps to sanitize commonly touched surfaces.

Other things to note
The fall colors, hiking, and nature setting is especially breathtaking this time of year. Wilmot mountain is just minutes away - an outdoor enthusiasts must do! Includes skiing, snowboarding, and even snow tubing. The fire pit is especially endulgent on refreshingly cool evenings!

Only minutes to Blarneys Island and Lakeside Restaurants on the "Chain-O-Lakes” from our Pier!

Washing machine and dryer are not actually in the unit. They are in a common space that is under Unit #1 on the property. It is a shared washer and dryer that is free to use. You will get further direction on how to access this area after you book your reservation.

Cozy Cottage
Clean, cozy and comfortable. It was too cold for us to utilize the kayaks and the beach this time of year but the area would be perfect for summer fun! My husband came to fish. The American Legion has public boat ramp you can use for a daily fee and it was within a few miles from the cottage. Also lots of great places to eat nearby. Fox Family restaurant has an amazing breakfast and lunch menu! If we are up in this area again I'd definitely book here again!

Absolutely gorgeous and very clean and cozy!
You will love this cozy lake front apartment! This small yet cozy apartment will have everything you need! Situation with right on the the chain, you will find you are steps away from a peaceful and relaxing waterfront view! The property has more than enough sitting spaces and fire pits to enjoy and evening with friends and family! I highly recommend giving this apartment a stay. Five stars *****

This place is in serious trouble.
They just hit an insurance company for 500 plus dollars claiming damage. Which I had for coverage. I just happened to open up the email from the company. I'm so glad I video taped everything as I always do when I stay ant a rental. This is absolutely scandalous.
