About this property

Entire place

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

WELCOME! Are you looking to get away, to disconnect and relax? Look no further.

The Lake House is a quiet, cozy year round home. Either watch the activities on the Lake or take out the row boat to fish or the paddle boat to have a bit of fun and exercise. Lake House is a newly remodeled 2-bedroom house, with a combined bathroom/laundry room. The sitting room allows you a space to relax. Check out the shelves, you will find some games, or you might want to check out a book. The cozy sunroom has a great view of Buffalo Lake, and a great place to have your morning coffee. The Lake House is fully furnished. The kitchen is equipped with everything you may need to cook or bake a sweet treat. You can relax on the patio, or move closer to the lake, sit on the bench and enjoy the sights and sounds. If luck, has it, you may see the eagle that nests further down the lake. Take a short walk to downtown, visit the shops, or take your picture at the waterfalls, if you prefer to stay close to the Lake House, you can roam the property, hopefully there will be flowers blooming. Check out the metal flowers, the bowling balls and even some cement leaves.... a few things I do to keep myself busy.

The Lake House is not only for a summer get away, but there are many activities to do in the winter months. You can ice fish and snowmobile. Cascade Mountain is a 30 minute drive, a family-friendly resort where you can ski, snowboard, snow tubing with kid programs. Check it out, follow the link.

Relaxing stay

Very clean and comfortable- loved the backyard and looking out on the lake. Couldn’t get the canoe or paddle boat out due to all the cattails but loved sitting on the dock.

Great stay

Perfect cottage. The home was well-appointed and spotless. We had a nice relaxing weekend away in the middle of January. Looking forward to coming back when the temperature is above freezing. :). The cottage was exactly as advertised and the property owner is a great communicator. If in town I highly recommend lunch at Oyster Crackers.
