Summer is "soon on us, so don't settle". Renting a cottage lakeside again this year when you know a short vacation stay is never enough. This very affordable 2-bedroom bungalow has it all, starting with ample parking (4 cars onsite), new retaining walls and drainage, multi-level plateaus to view and enjoy the lake from, 52 ft of sandy beach lakefront. There is also a low maintenance fenced in yard, large enough to enjoy and not spend too much of your time mowing. The cottage has a great open floor plan, which takes in huge views of the lake, offers an entry followed by a dining area, sweet functional kitchen, and the living room is about open space and water views. The 2 bedrooms are tucked back quietly as well as a 3/4 bath. There is an entire list of all of its natural attributes, practical updates as well a maintenance list including dates.
