Beautifully decorated lake cottage, with incredible views

We were the first group to rent this listing, and loved our time here. In Fox Lake for a family wedding, a group of "seniors"; two brothers and their wives. Well worth the stairs leading down from the hillside parking! My woodworking husband, and artistic sister in law appreciated both the quality of the renovation and decorating. New appliances, and well stocked if you want to cook, which we usually do, but lacked time for this trip. Their recommended restaurants were helpful. We wish we'd had time to enjoy the fire pit! Beautifully decorated, comfortable bedrooms, one with a view of the lake off the balcony. Our grandkids would have loved the bunk room! The enclosed porch offered great viewing of the lake, and there was plenty of room for playing games and eating. We'd love to return, and wish it weren't so far from our Colorado home!

Great Getaway!!

The property was as advertised (beautiful and clean). Everything that you would need for a lakefront getaway. It has a kayak and two paddle boards that were used often. Also has a boat dock we used when renting a boat. We had 9 guests stay comfortably in the house. We would definitely come back here again!!!

A beautiful home!

My family and I rented this property for about 3 weeks for a small reunion. The home is beautiful, right on the lake. Kevin was also very responsive and easy to reach. There is a lot to do just at the home too - kayaking, bonfire, fishing, board games. The only thing to mention is that there are a lot of stairs that are extremely slippery when wet.
