Nice, peaceful location

Joyce was a joy to communicate with. The deck and views were a nice place to sit and relax. We appreciated having coffee and bottled water provided to us as well as other small amenities. If I'm in the Waverly area again, I'll make another reservation.

THE Perfect Home Away From Home

Lake Whitetail Cottage is the perfect place to stay! There was plenty of room with all amenities met. If traveling with an infant, stay here! Crib, crib bedding, high chair, potty seat, and even baby shampoo was there for our use. Joyce has thought of it all! The back deck is such a nice spot to relax with a cup of coffee (by the way it’s provided with creamers and sugar!) and watch the deer in the morning. Even if staying indoors there was so many large windows and natural light. Surrounding neighborhood was very calm and quiet. Everything inside and outside was very clean and well maintained. We will definitely be staying again!
