Our cottage offers a cozy dwelling with ample outdoor space and proximity to nearby attractions. Our cottage has been renovated with an updated: kitchen, modern bathroom, living room and porch. This is our part-time mountain home and we want you to enjoy it as much as we do! Our realtor once described this house as feeling like you were wrapped in a warm blanket- we agree, and we hope you do too!
House is equipped with BRAND NEW 75" LG smart TV and BRAND NEW Jacuzzi J245 hot tub. House also has a propane BBQ grill and fire pit (sometimes inaccessible in the winter after large snowfalls). Guest will have access to all of these amenities as well as many more kitchen essentials. Master bedroom also has Amazon Fire television and en suite bathroom. In the dining room closet you will find the following games/activities:
- cornhole
- miniature table tennis
- yoga mat
- yoga blocks (2)
- wiffle ball & bat
- basketball (pump available too)
- whack-a-mole game
Please help yourself to any of these, just put them back when you’re done with them.
This is an all seasons cottage rental:
- In the warmer months, enjoy swimming, fishing, hiking and BBQ's! Our cottage is only a 3-4 minute walk to one of the 6 and biggest lakes in this private community! Feel free to enjoy the day on our property: BBQ'ing and enjoying a breeze on the hammock. Enjoy the night toasting marshmallows at the fire pit!
- In the colder months, enjoy skiing or snow tubing at any of the local slopes and coming home to a roaring fire in the wood burning fireplace while having hot chocolate on the cozy, comfy couches.
Firewood: you are free to bring your own, or we can supply some for a nominal fee. We work on the honor system here - let us know how much you need, we’ll be happy to accommodate. As a little bonus, all weekend rentals come with firewood included!
This is our part-time home, so do not be surprised that the fridge and the pantry are fully-stocked. But please, help yourself to anything in the kitchen! We wouldn't have it any other way.
The gas grill is a bit on the old side, but it still works great. The grill is cleaned regularly, but an old grill is an old grill - only so much can be done! We keep an extra propane tank on-site at all times in case the one hooked up runs out; we also have a charcoal grill here for those that prefer to go that route.
