Angler's Cottage on Lake Cornelia: Pets Welcome!

Pack your bait and tackle for a stay at this Clarion, IA, vacation rental! Sitting on Lake Cornelia, the 3-bed, 1-bath cottage is ideal for waterfront get-togethers. Reel in bass and catfish from the dock, then fire up the gas grill for fresh-as-it-gets fish dinner on the deck! If you prefer to be behind the helm or sunbathing on the shore, the lake's marina and beach are both within 2 miles. However you spend your time, you'll love ending each day on the porch watching the sunset over the lake.

A great return

My family used to live just across the lake from this house so it was great to come back and spend time at Lake Cornelia. This is a great little retreat. We so enjoyed our time.

This is the second time that we rented this property. It's perfect for our little 'get away' week but it's still close enough that our kids can come to visit, They love spending time on the water, we especially enjoy the patio on the back. We spent countless hours there. Thanks, again for a wonderful week!

Relaxing Lake Cabin

The house was clean, comfortable, and had beautiful views right on the water. Kitchen was easy to use and had all the basics we needed. We found fun stores to poke around in and good places to eat in Clarion and Belmond. We also enjoyed the county park at the end of the lake.

Hammitt Getaway

We really enjoyed our time in this home. It was only the 2 of us and our two small dogs so it was perfect for us. We were surprised that it didn't have closets but certainly not a big deal at all. Lots of condiments in kitchen and pots and pans to use as we make all our meals at our home. We had beautiful weather and enjoyed the nice patio on the deck. The neighbors were so nice, we loved our time there!

Girls Cabin Weekend

We had a great time at this super cozy cabin. Everything was clean and it had everything (and then some) of things to make the stay comfortable/enjoyable. There's a beautiful outdoor covered patio with patio furniture, a tabletop fire pit, and ceiling fan. There was a rug under the outdoor patio furniture that was wet due to rain & because of this, there were chiggers,/mosquitos, so we weren't able to enjoy the outdoor area as much as we had hoped. This wasn't too big of a deal. As we were getting ready to check out, we also noticed a camera in the center of the indoor living space. This was a bit unsettling.
