About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Perfect lake front cottage! Now with stairs to the water!

Nestled on a private mountain top overlooking Pickwick lake. This cottage was recently completely remodeled and offers the most relaxing stay. This property has beautiful lake views and its secluded spot on the lake, right across from bear creek, will be the perfect lake getaway for a couple or a small family. We have just added stairs down to the water! We also added a dock and a gazebo with amazing views.
There are two public boat ramps conveniently located 5 minutes ( less than a mile ) from property.




The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a sofa bed, a coffee maker, and a dining table.

This cabin was an amazing escape! Beautiful sunsets in the morning and refreshing views sitting by the water. The space was perfect for a short get away. I’d recommend bringing all the food you want to cook as stores are not close and you’ll want to soak up all the time by the water and by a cozy fire! The hosts responded quickly to all questions and the cabin had everything we needed. Will definitely be returning to stay again in the future!
