Super Cozy Cottage

Our family had a really lovely long-weekend getaway in his cozy little home. While it snowed 3-5 inches each day outside, we parked it in front of the fireplace and didn't do much other than relax and get the occasional pizza from Black Cat Lanes. The home is small, but the space is very well-utilized, with what appears to be a recent update to the interior. No wifi, but we were able to get great cell coverage (t-mobile towers). Small TV and DVD player were enough for some family movie nights next to the wood-burning fireplace. No oven, washer, or dryer, but we did fine without. Really cozy in the winter; and in spitting distance of a large lake that I imagine would be buzzing with activity in the summer. Oh, and I should mention that Jackie was incredibly detailed in her communication and clearly a very welcoming, generous soul. All in all, highly recommended if OK without some of the typical electronics/appliances -- but, we, for one, plan to visit again.

Beats a hotel any day.

We came into town for a house warming party as a group of 6 we were having trouble finding somewhere that we can stay together being a home game weekend hotels were booked and way over priced. This was perfect. We just needed a place to sleep at night and I found myself not wanting to leave this little cottage. The pictures don't do this cute cottage justice, I was surprised at how much space there actually was compared to what I pictured. The bedding was soft and had that fresh laundered scent that I love. Plenty of towels on hand. Booking and check in was super easy. The property manager or owner was wonderful and gave me all kinds of information. Thanks for the lovely stay.

Hudson Lake Wedding

We attended a wedding at the golf course in New Carlisle. Some other friends have houses on Hudson lake so this location worked out perfectly for us. Was able to walk to Monroe’s for breakfast, a little over a mile. Property was clean, cozy, and comfortable. We had a great time.

Perfect Getaway With Friends

I stayed on this property with a few of my friends and we couldn’t have been happier! It’s so quiet outside, and very clean inside. We loved the loft and that we also had two private bedrooms. The bathroom was stocked with towels and other little necessities you may have forgotten. The beach was a short drive away, not even 5 minutes. It’s a cute small beach, but I would recommend swim shoes since it is rocky. The people are so incredibly nice! We drove out and parked on a side road to see some stars since we are from the city, and someone called us a tow truck. We didn’t need it but how thoughtful! Personally I love the smell of bonfires and hay so I enjoyed being outside. Also the neighbors have cats and a cute little one would come sit in the yard. Be prepared for mosquitoes! Not having WiFi turned out to be great (no worries if you aren’t into that, we had no issues with 5g service!) we were able to connect a few gaming devices that we brought as well. We also loved the DVD collection and had fun blindfolding ourselves and picking a few at random! Would definitely recommend a peaceful stay here!

Nice place for a family

Nice place for a family! Clean, easy in and out of the house. Bedrooms are good. Owner was great to communicate with. Very informative. Things to note. Home doesn't have dedicated parking (no driveway). This was an issue on 4th of July when a lot of visitors were at the lake! Visitors were double parking beside the house. I had to park around the corner. The home does sleep 7, but that is pretty tight for places to put belongings and sitting around dinning table.

Great 2 Day Escape

My college friends and I (party of 4 total) had a great weekend relaxing, playing yard games and watching DVDs. Golf course within 20 minutes (Briar Leaf I believe) was great for the cost and there is plenty within 15 minutes of the cottage. Grill worked great, A/C was a huge plus and the fire place looked lovely (although we didn't use as it's summer). Would definitely recommend and will be exploring coming back in the future.

Beautiful little cottage

I stayed with my five grown children. We only had the weekend, and the only problem we had is that we could not stay longer! Everything was super clean and cozy. The house was bright, and the porch perfect for early morning coffee. Lovely place.
