Lake Delavan Hideaway - Carl’s Cottage - Water View Bliss, Dock & Cozy Fireplace

Wake to the sparkle of Lake Delavan at your doorstep, spend the day on the water, and end the night by a crackling wood fire.

Welcome to Carl’s Cottage, a cherished family retreat on the shores of beautiful Lake Delavan.

Whether you’re here for summer boating and fishing or the cozy magic of a winter snowfall, Carl’s Cottage offers the perfect all-season escape.

The Space

Step out your door and onto your own dock — perfect for morning coffee, fishing, or launching a kayak.

Wood-Burning Fireplace: Gather around the warmth of a real wood fire after skiing, skating, or exploring the winter wonderland.

Lake Views: Large windows frame the sparkling water in summer and serene snowy landscapes in winter.

Comfort & Charm: Rustic touches meet modern amenities, creating a welcoming space for families, couples, and friends.

All-Season Adventures

Summer: Boating, kayaking, fishing, swimming, vineyard, and orchard visits just minutes away.

Winter: Ski hills within a short drive, ice skating/fishing on the lake, and peaceful snowy shoreline walks.

Year-Round: Local dining, wineries, and boutique country shops offer something new in every season.

Why You’ll Love It Here
