Great getaway

As in the past, this is a clean relaxing lake house on a small quiet lake. Everything you need is provided! We did miss not having the peddle boat this year but enjoyed the kayaking and fishing from the pier!

A wonderful Wautoma stay!

We had a wonderful stay with our daughter, son-in-law and grandson in Wautoma at this beautiful VRBO. It was central to a few day trips but we also just enjoyed being together and hanging out in the water( especially our 3 year old grandson- he said the water was his favorite part if the trip). We are already talking about returning next summer.

Cottage

Spent the weekend here for my daughter’s wedding located nearby in Coloma. The cottage was amazing and so clean! Very nice and quiet location. We wish we could have spent more time there but the wedding kept us pretty busy. Will definitely be back when we can enjoy it more!
