There are also a variety of other golf courses within a 15-20 minute drive. (Wildflower, Fair Hills, Forest Hills)

Great Getaway
This cottage was a great place to relax and spend time as a family. My son loved getting to walk the short distance to the dock to fish as much as he wanted to. We rented a boat from in town and Lake Sallie was perfect for tubbing and fishing from the boat. The cottage had everything we needed to cook our meals. Having culligan water was a nice bonus. The bedrooms were on the cozy side. But there was plenty of space in the public areas for our family to gather. The kitchen has a nice size table to play games or do puzzles. Paul was quick to respond to our questions/needs.

Great property with even better hosts, Paul was very easy to communicate with. The cabin is in a nice relaxing location, the shoreline is very shallow, but the water was clean and sandy bottom - great for swimming. We would definitely recommend this property.

Great, place, lake and location
The property was a great cottage with nice amenities. We loved to be able to work a little and play a little. It's a nice touch also to have a pontoon available for rent as well. The owners were very responsive and live close by if anything would be needed.

Lake place
Unfortunately had to go for a funeral, but this place was very homey. Rented a pontoon from T&C pontoon rentals. They are not on the lake, but delivered it to our dock. Lake is shallow, so keep an eye on your boat motor trim. I would stay there again, if they have openings.
