We also have 2 queen size air mattresses to use. The Gazebo is perfect for enjoying morning coffee or relaxing at night. Fire up the grill or use the bonfire.

We even have a 5-person pedal boat and 2 kayaks you are more than welcome to use to explore! You’ll have a great time out on Gun Lake! The sunrises/sunsets are gorgeous!

We enjoyed our week vacation at this lakeside home. We brought our boat and enjoyed each day on the lake and the peaceful evenings lounging under the gazebo. The home is well-equipped with anything needed for a stay.

Great get away

Great two bedroom cottage - it is on a quiet canal on Gun lake. Cottage was clean with all the amenities you need accept for food. We took our own boat and explored the lake. Explored surrounding towns and had a great time. Give this place a 5 star.

This was the cutest little cottage! It was clean and well-stocked. Our stay was quiet and peaceful. Our host, Mike, was very helpful, before and during our stay! And if we had a question, he was always quick to answer.

Very Cute

It was a very nice cottage. It’s right on the water which is nice. We’re from Florida so seeing snow was a treat for us. We liked that there was a local grocery store not too far up the road. Overall it’s a nice place for a couple to stay or a couple with one child.

Pontoon Trip

We absolutely love this place! A perfect house on the lake with a modern pontoon boat. Mike is an excellent host and has the house well equipped with everything you could possibly need! The lake has very good fishing and is also big enough to not get over crowded on the weekends. Probably the best lake we have ever been to!

Great for our wedding weekend.

We got Married at Bowens cidar mill and this was very close to the venue. Overall it was a very nice stay with an effortless check in, the lake house was adorable and intimate and the host was very nice. Lighting a fire in the fire pit while enjoying the patio furniture on the lake before our big day was just what we needed thank you so much!

Great little please for a getaway

Mike’s property is great if looking to spend time outdoors. We enjoyed the use of the grill, dinner under gazebo, fire pit, kayaks, paddle boat and also took his pontoon out (separate fee). Not many vacation rentals offer boat rental and was a nice extra to be able to enjoy, especially the sunset over the lake. We also enjoyed the location being on a channel, quieter.

Quant cottage

The place is very nice and clean. Everything you need is there. Rental of the pontoon right on property was very convenient. The shower stall is a corner unit and quite small. The bedrooms are small and not much room to move around. Otherwise the place was perfect.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
We rented this home for a last-minute trip to Gun Lake with our pontoon boat. The house itself was clean, and the dock was by far the best feature. Being able to keep our boat just steps from the house on a quiet canal with quick access to the main lake made boating very convenient.Unfortunately, those positives were overshadowed by the condition of the property and surrounding neighborhood. The yard at the rental was overgrown with tall grass and weeds and should have been mowed before our arrival. A lawn crew didn’t come until the morning we were leaving.Our biggest concern was the immediate neighborhood. Two houses down was a property we later confirmed had been cited by the county. A loose pit bull from that property was roaming the area during our stay, which was especially concerning since we had our 7-pound Chihuahua with us. On the other side of the rental was what appeared to be a vacant, overgrown lake house. Together, the neighboring properties made us feel unsafe walking around or spending time outside after dark.None of this is visible in the listing photos. Had we known what the immediate surroundings were like, we would have chosen a different rental. If boating access is your priority, this property delivers. If the overall setting and neighborhood are important to you, it’s something to consider before booking.

Nice Getaway

This cottage is small but has everything you need. It comfortably fit 3 adults and 2 small dogs. Kitchen was fully stocked with supplies and bathroom had plenty of towels for everyone. We chose it because it was directly on the lake. It’s a quiet community with nice neighbors. Grocery store, gas station, pizza and ice cream shop were less than 5 min away. The pontoon was very much worth it. Boat was in good shape and the lake was family friendly and easy to navigate. Mike was a great host and checked in frequently. The cabin did have a musty smell but that could be do to the weather (rained some days). Unfortunately the propane tank for the grill ran out on our second time using it. Mike responded quickly and did offer resolutions however it seemed like an oversight. Regardless, we had a positive stay and still recommend this place!
