Our stay at The Cottage on Cape Catherine was absolutely wonderful. The location couldn’t have been more perfect—tucked away on a peaceful peninsula that stretches into the lake. The water was calm throughout our visit, and the beautiful scenery made every morning feel special.The property itself was clean, well-maintained, and had everything in perfect order. We felt right at home from the moment we arrived. Our dog, Buddy, loved it just as much as we did—he enjoyed exploring the area and relaxing by the water.This cottage truly offers a serene escape, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, scenic getaway. We can’t wait to return!

The house was clean and very nice. The neighbor hood was quiet and peaceful. The only thing ( and this does not affect the house or host) the bed was too low to the floor for us old folks, and it felt like you sunk into the mattress a lot. But this is a very good place to stay and relax.

What a great property! The location is excellent and right on the water! We had so much fun using the communal kayaks! The cabin was very clean and functional!The only thing to note (and this does NOT effect my rating, as this is a personal preference): the bed is very low to the ground and does not have much support for older backs. So if you have mobility issues, especially problems with your knees, you might look at one of the other properties from this owner!Overall, 5/5 stay, we will definitely be back to Cape Catherine!!!

Relaxing at the lake.

Love the layout of the cottage. Not too small and not too large, wonderful kitchen, Weber Grill on back patio was great for grilling shrimp with a view of the water. Clean, comfortable and easy to relax. Definitely recommend and we will return to it again.

Relaxing getaway

The Cottage on Cape Catherine was lovely! The cottage was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. Situated on a peninsula, we could go out the front door or the back door to access the lake—so cool! We fished, used their kayaks and paddle board, sat on the patios, and relaxed in this peaceful setting. It was our home base as we went to Hot Springs, Lake Catherine State Park, and the Garvin Woodland Gardens. Laura quickly and helpfully answered all our questions. We would highly recommend the cottage!

Pollen

The property was very nice inside. I question the Host definition of "sanitized." "Trash has to be taken out. Dirty dishes had to be washed or put in the dishwasher." Too many REQUIREMENTS for a few days stay. Numerous geese abound along with geese feces. And pollen was everywhere even the patio. We would have appreciated pollen removal from the patio and furniture. "Any moved furniture has to be put back in it's original place since personnel do not move furniture."
