    Enjoyed our stay very much. Loved having the big grassy yard. Also the benefit of a large garage to store my bike, kayaks and paddle boards. The owner was very nice to work with. We would definitely book again!

    We enjoyed our stay at this adorable cabin that is located right on the lake. The cabin is modern but rustic with all the amenities.The driveway was large enough for our truck and boat and a few more cars for friends to visit.The homeowners are easy to reach via phone if there is any issues.The sunset views are perfect and the lawn was large enough to accommodate our goldendoodle.The location of this cabin is in a convenient spot to access the walking trail and just 10min from town to explore all that Watertown has to offer. Highly recommend this property!

    My wife and I came up to Watertown to attend the graduation of a friend's granddaughter. The cabin fit us just perfectly. The weather turned cold and rainy and the cabin was very cozy. Tina was very responsive to all of my texts. We very much enjoyed our stay.
