Nola was a wonderful host. The cottage is smaller than I expected but comfortable and cozy, nicely decorated and has very comfortable beds. It was also conveniently located for walks to downtown for shopping and to partake in some award-winning ice cream. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Very cute little cottage located right on the hosts property. Set in right with other homes around it but a very quiet neighborhood. Had everything we needed. Hist were very friendly and very prompt if we needed anything. Beautiful yard with beautiful flowers. We were able to use their dock for fishing and relaxing which we walked through their yard to get to the dock. Location was great for hiking a few miles away. Overall nice place to stay.

Cozy Cottage
When we arrived, we happened to be welcomed by Nola. She gave us helpful information about the property & let us go on our way. We were delighted by cottage's charm & instantly felt like we were *on vacation*! Our girls said it looked to be a cottage straight out of a story book! The outdoor space offered blooming flowers, beautiful garden beds and very welcoming outdoor space to relax.The bedrooms were very clean and suitable for a family of 4. The master bed was like sleeping on a firm cloud loved it! The bathroom is tiny but.... again, even that seemed to add a little something special to memories that were made. Location couldn't have been better, right on the water & 2 minutes walk from town. We would love to rent again. Thank you.

Great week of remote work and family visits
The property was just as listed. Nola and Cal were excellent hosts and even brought me flashlights and dessert when the power went out!!! Chetek is a wonderful community with plenty of great restaurants and friendly people. I look forward to my next visit and would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a cabin that is rustic and in a great location.
