Cottage on beautiful Lake James

Location, location, location! Walking distance to restaurants and activities. On private lane leading to four corners, Paradise Cafe, Tom’s Donuts, The Corner Landing, The Waterfront Bistro, and more.

Family neighborhood so tenants should be adult families, kids and relatives, friends. Not recommended for young people desiring loud partying. If you want to rent after Labor Day until Memorial Day contact land lord so special arrangements can be made.

Who’s got it better than you? Possibly no one if you rent this place!

3rd stay and as always, a thumbs up!

We love our yearly week stay and as always booked for the next year already. Mike is always extremely responsive to any questions or issues that pop up. We love renting this house as it suits our needs for limited stairs, close to aging parents ( Fort Wayne), beautiful beach, clean lake, friendly neighbors, great rental owners, close to amenities and such a relaxed vibe!!

Great location!

We enjoyed the large yard and the sandy beach. The location to food and shops is within walking distance. We didn’t need to use our car the entire time we were there. The cottage is very open but dated. It could use some serious updates but love that it is a true cottage. We will be back next year! Thank you!

Great Family Vacation

We really enjoyed coming to this lake cottage for the week - it reminded my parents and I of the lake cottage we had growing up. The beach was 10/10, sandy and easy to wade into the water and play. The location was great as well, easy walk to restaurants and get donuts in the morning. The owner was quick to get a hold of with any questions leading up to the week and was available during our time there if we needed anything. We could come back again!

Nice Cottage

The location is perfect, with a nice flat yard extending to the lake. If you like soft beds, you will love this cottage. The only problem we encountered was that the book listing all the details (garbage pickup day, instructions to operate TV, etc.) of the cottage was missing.

This is the place to stay!!

Mike’s place was so cozy and comfortable. We had 6 older adults stay and it was perfect. The beach area right at the house is what drew me to book and it didn’t disappoint. The house was clean, spacious and the beds were very comfortable. We had a range of late 40 to early 60 age range staying and the small amount of stairs inside and outside were just perfect for us. Dock access and the amenities were icing on the cake! Mike was a great host and always available for questions! The easy access to restaurants and the marina for boat rental was perfection. We will be booking again next year. Thank you to Mike and your family for a great relaxing vacation!!!

Great vacation cottage

Great spot for family get togethers! Kids enjoyed playing in the sand and swimming on the beach, fishing is great off the pier, deck is large enough for everyone to be able to relax together and the location near restaurants is perfect. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks, Mike & Linda, for a memorable family vacation!

Dock Club

We love this cottage! And we’ve already reserved it again for next year! The location is perfect because we can walk to Toms, Club P, and all the other little shops/restaurants. We rented a pontoon and pulled it right up to our own dock. The little beach is great for the kids and the fire pit is a plus!

Our week on Lake James.

We loved the view of the lake. No steps was a plus! The beach area was super!! The tires on the side of the pier were especially helpful in securing our jet ski. Everything was very clean. The DVD player may need replacing soon as it tended to stall quite often. The location is terrific!!! Thank you Mike!

Come for the view!

The cottage was as described with a great view of the lake; boat traffic was enjoyable to watch as they came in and out of the channel. The property has a dock that you can easily dock your watercraft. The owner was very responsive and helpful to any questions or issues that came about. The location being close walking distance to the 4 corners and restaurants was a bonus to staying here. Thx again Mike.
