Perfect lake front cottage! Now with stairs to the water!

Nestled on a private mountain top overlooking Pickwick lake. This cottage was recently completely remodeled and offers the most relaxing stay. This property has beautiful lake views and its secluded spot on the lake, right across from bear creek, will be the perfect lake getaway for a couple or a small family. We have just added stairs down to the water! We also added a dock and a gazebo with amazing views.
There are two public boat ramps conveniently located 5 minutes ( less than a mile ) from property.

Wonderful Experience

The accommodations were wonderful. The property was clean and extremely nice with very thoughtful amenities. The view is spectacular, especially at sunset and the whole place is such a peaceful setting. Cell service is great, but WiFi is also available. There are plenty of places to sit and enjoy the deck by the water. Would highly recommend.

Gorgeous water views. Perfect weekend getaway.

My husband and I had the most amazing weekend here! The view from the house was so beautiful. We also brought our boat. The launch was a 3 minute drive away from the house. Launching the boat and keeping it at the house was easy and convenient. It is the perfect weekend getaway.

Exactly as advertised

Perfect little A Frame for a weekend getaway. The host was extremely helpful and the view was amazing. We would definitely stay again! Some reviews mentioned that there was no where close to buy items you might have forgotten but I thought I noticed a little market a mile or two into town.
