About this property

2025 Vacation Rental of the Year cottage completely surrounded by water!

  • This private lakeside cottage on a peninsula is surrounded by 800 feet of water frontage on Lake William and has been chosen as one of Vrbo's 2025 Vacation Rental of the Year! This property can comfortably accommodate up to 8 guests with 4 queen beds located in the 3 upstairs bedrooms...or up to 10 guests with our separate Guesthouse*. Spend your days enjoying the warm water and evenings connecting with others by the outside fire. The basement offers bar and table seating, as well as a shuffleboard. Airport and downtown are only 20 minutes away. Groceries/Costco is a 12-minute drive.
    *Guesthouse offers a private 4th bedroom and is only included with bookings of 9-10 guests.
    *Guesthouse may already be booked for some dates. If so, then the main cottage will only allow bookings of 8 guests.
    *If at the time of booking, the guesthouse is not booked, then the guesthouse will automatically be blocked off by the host to prevent additional outside guest bookings.
    *Guests with mobility issues may want to also book the guesthouse (only 2 steps), as the 3 bedrooms in the main cottage are on the second floor. Please contact the host if booking the guesthouse, as additional fees would apply.
