Red Cottage - Papakeechie - Secluded - Swim - Bonfires - Fish - Relax
Create lasting memories with the family at one of the very first cottages on Papakeechie Lake. Relax on the deck taking in the graceful swans that reside here, go for a peaceful ride in the kayaks or take a stroll around our no motor lake on our peddle boat and even swim right off of the pier. Grab the smores and have a blast telling stories around the camp fire. The kids will feel like they're camping, especially sleeping in the loft! Cozy up on chilly nights next to the indoor fireplace.
The kitchen, dining, bath and laundry areas are on the lower level with sliding glass doors all along the front to take in beautiful sunsets. At the top of the stairs, you will find the living room with fireplace and a queen pull out sofa bed, games and there is a full sized bed placed in the back corner. Off of the living room are 2 bedrooms. You have to go through the bedroom with a queen bed to get to the other bedroom with a twin.
We have a peddle boat, row boat, kayaks and a float for you to use while at the cabin.
There is room to park one vehicle at the bottom of our shared drive. Please do not block the drive as this is the same way the neighbors exit. There is, however, additional parking at the top of the hill available.
The entire house is yours, with the exception of one supply closet.
This is quite a few steps down from the parking area. The lake is down just a little farther from the cottage.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker. Housekeeping is available on request.
