Charming cottage on quiet lake

Escape to the great outdoors and stay at “The Cottage,” a charming timber frame built cabin at the end of the road on a quiet lake. This one-of-a kind cottage features 3 bedrooms and a 4th bonus room in the loft. Direct access to the lake makes it easy to enjoy any water activity or hobby. Additionally, Cold Brook County Park is just a short canoe ride across the lake, which features a swimming beach, disc golf, hiking trails, boat ramp and much more. Bring your boat and dock it right in your backyard on The Cottage’s dock. Prepare your favorite meal on the grill and roast marshmallows in the evening on the fire pit, all while enjoying the lake views and sounds of nature.
