Lake front cottage with beach & dock (Pet-Friendly!)

This amazing property that offers water views from three sides and nearly 300 feet of lake frontage. Whether you want to relax or have some fun, this place has it all. You can enjoy the water activities on the 4 km long Lake Torment, such as swimming, kayaking or fishing. You can launch your water toys from the two small beaches on the property or from the floating dock. You can also explore the nearby trails with your ATV or side by side, or try jet skiing in the winter.

If you are looking for a peaceful and relaxing vacation by the lake, look no further than this charming cottage. This property features over 300 square feet of lakefront access, where you can enjoy various water sports and activities, or simply admire the stunning views. You can also discover the nearby attractions, such as the hiking trails and the Ross farm museum. In the evening, you can cozy up by the fire pit, gaze at the stars, or read a book in a hammock.

The cottage has three bedrooms and one bathroom. The main floor has a queen-sized bed with a fantastic view of the lake and also has a desk, ergonomic chair and 2 monitors incase you need to work remotely. The upper floor has a double bed also with great view of the lake and another bedroom with two twin beds, along with a TV. You can start your day with the sound of the waves. The bathroom has a shower, a sink, and a toilet, and the kitchen has all the appliances you need, such as a microwave, an oven, and an air fryer. The dining room has a big table where you can savor your meals with a view. The mud room has a washer and dryer for your convenience. The living room is spacious and bright, with large windows that let you enjoy the scenery even on cloudy days. The living room has a sofa, a day bed that sleeps two, and a TV. There is also a wood fireplace for those cold nights.

The cottage has high speed internet and if you might need work , the bedroom downstairs has a dedicated workspace with standing desk, dual monitor, mouse and keyboard and USB-C hub/HDMI to connect with your Laptop/Mac.

Please be aware that there is only one heat pump for AC that covers the main floor, but not the upper floor bedrooms. Depending on the weather, the upper floor bedrooms may get quite warm. There are ceiling fans in each bedroom and portable fans are also available. Please do not book if this is an issue for you. Also be aware that the 2 bedroom upstairs does not have doors so might not provide privacy you might need.

You are welcome to enjoy all the amenities of the property, except for a few areas that are off-limits. These include the shed, the outhouse (which is not safe to use), a steel box in the dining room, and a personal closet in the bedroom. These areas are locked for your safety and privacy. Please respect the lawn grass and do not drive your car on it. Also, please be mindful of the neighbors' boundaries and do not use their dock, which is located in front of their house. The property line ends at the driveway, so please stay within it. Thank you for your cooperation and have a wonderful stay.

Lovely place
We went there for Christmas with our kids and friend. Place is clean, charming. Lot of stuff for kids, toys, games, books, plastic dishes, high chair. Living room is spacious, with view on lake. The fire place works great, quiet area with a small convenience store a little further. You'll have to drive around 40 minutes to do your groceries. One of our best stay !!
