The cottage was exactly as pictured and very clean! Everything was well thought out throughout the cottage, with all the comforts of home. The sun porch was our absolute favorite and there's tons of outside space for relaxing. The beds were very comfy, too. We enjoyed our stay so much! Thank you!

We loved having a private Cottage with lake themed decorations. The place was comfortable inside and outside with direct lake access for the kayaks. The bathroom was very nice as well.

Amazing cottage

The cottage was beautiful, very clean and well decorated. Very relaxing and well stocked. Great communication with Alisha. Accessibility was great as well, no more than a 10 minute drive to any place we wanted to go. Would want to stay at North Winds cottage if we visit Indian lake again!

Nice little getaway

Very nice, clean and was perfect for our short getaway. There were 4 adults! Space was just right for us. We took a fishing boat, caught lots of catfish. We would for sure consider returning. One important thing if you go, take bottles water for drinking.

Highly Recommend

Very nice cottage and decorated very cute. They thought of everything. They made sure there was plenty of outlets for charging electronics. The beds were very comfortable. It was well equipped with everything you need. The kitchen is well stocked with appliances like air fryer and they even had spices. The coffee pot was a combination regular coffee pot and keurig. They supplied things a lot of Vrbo don’t like pumped hand soap at the sinks, aluminum foil, plenty of trash bags , extra toilet paper , etc. Even though it was a cold rainy weekend we had a great time !!

Wonderful Stay!

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming cottage, and it was an absolute delight. It offers a sense of tranquility and relaxation right from the start! We thoroughly enjoyed fishing from the dock, sitting on the back patio listening to the birds and watching the fish jump in the channel. We also took advantage of the State Park nearby to walk its trails. There's plenty to do outdoors because the home also features a boat dock and kayaks to use during your visit! Having the boat dock right at our doorstep was super convenient. We were able to rent a boat and explore the lake and all it has to offer. It truly added an extra layer of fun and excitement to our stay. The owners really thought of everything! The home has a fully equipped kitchen, washer, dryer, games and smart tv's in both bedrooms and living room. It rained on us one day so it was nice to have the option of just sitting in and watching a good movie! The patio and breezeway were perfect spots to unwind or soak up the serene atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

Unforgettable Lake Cottage Vacation

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing an enchanting getaway at a lake cottage, and I am thrilled to share my review. Nestled amidst breathtaking natural beauty, this lake cottage proved to be the perfect destination for relaxation, rejuvenation, and memorable moments. From the moment I arrived, I was captivated by the cottage's convenient location. Set on the shores of Indian lake, surrounded by lush greenery and towering trees, it exuded a sense of calm and tranquility that instantly put me at ease. The cottage itself was a cozy haven, exuding charm while offering modern amenities. The interior was tastefully decorated, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-appointed, providing a true home away from home experience. One of the highlights of my stay was undoubtedly the private dock. It quickly became my favorite spot, perfect for unwinding. Whether I was basking in the golden rays of the sun, reading a book, this setting allowed me to escape from the stresses of everyday life. Exploring the lake was an adventure in itself. I took advantage of the provided kayaks to leisurely paddle along the calm waters, discovering hidden coves and observing the abundant wildlife. Furthermore, the proximity to nature trails and hiking paths provided ample opportunities for outdoor activities. Whether you're seeking a romantic retreat, a family getaway, or a solo adventure, this lake cottage is an ideal choice. I left feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and with cherished memories that will stay with me for a lifetime.

We had a wonderful quiet extended weekend. Everything was very clean and the decor was the perfect "beach house" vibe.My favorite things were to sit and have coffee each morning on the back patio, and the access to kayaks. The lake was a little choppy, but the channel was perfect to roam around on.
