The beautiful lake in front of you is Big Blue. Crystal clear water and 86’ feet at its
deepest point. Trout and BlueGill are the primary fish in the lake. Big Blue is an all
sports lake with tubing, water skiing and jet skis. Walk out the door and take the road
on your right straight across to North Blue. 76’ feet at its deepest point, North Blue is a
no wake lake perfect for kayaking or fishing. Crystal clear water in beautiful shades of
blue and green. Some say the water reminds them of the Caribbean.

    Everything was amazing and property is really nice! The only thing is using the oven the smoke detectors go off.

    We had a great stay despite the weather not being the nicest. The cottage was very clean and we had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice relaxing getaway at a quiet lake!

    This Yellow cottage overlooking the Blue Lake is absolutely lovely. It is comfortable, adequately stocked with towels, sheets, a well organized kitchen and wonderful views of the lake while inside the cottage. There was good water pressure and plenty hot water. The stacked washer/dryer was so convenient for small loads. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Yellow cottage, a peaceful place for sure! I definitely hope to return.

    So when walked in about 730 pm we walk into the ceiling leaking and just leaking but like a down pour contacted host she said she would send to someone out the next morning no one came and that was a previous leak and the smell of mildew was just awful we kept trying to figure out why though maybe it was her plant she had placed at the front by the third day we figured it out I was going to wash my clothes because the stunk like mold and I seen this huge black mold spot above the washer oh and by the second night the the TV didn't work and she was like oh you are just having a tough stay and after that no response now what a horrible 50th get away

    Everything was perfect! The house was clean and comfortable, had everything needed and stayed so nice and cool even on the 95 degrees day! the view from the window and front porch was exactly what my mother was hoping for after a day of shopping and touring or spending the day on the lake. Fabulous hosts and a wonderful home!

    We had another amazing stay at the cottage on Blue Lake. Beautiful views of the lake right from the porch and a wonderful swim area right outside. The cottage is cozy and offers everything we need. It was a perfect retreat. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to unwind in a picturesque location!

    My husband, in laws and I had a lovely stay. The cabin is located in a perfect spot and very cozy. The neighbors were all very friendly and even let us use their kayak to stroll around the lake. It was a nice and quiet short get away!

    My recent stay at this charming lakeside cottage was lovely. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with stunning views of the serene lake and the cozy, inviting atmosphere of the cottage. The cottage itself is beautifully maintained and thoughtfully equipped with everything needed for a relaxing getaway. The view from the living and dining area offered lovely views of the lake, making it the perfect spot to unwind with a good book. The host was incredibly welcoming and attentive. It’s clear that a lot of care and thought has gone into making this cottage a special retreat. If you’re looking for a peaceful escape with beautiful lake views and excellent amenities, I highly recommend this cottage. We can’t wait to return for another stay!

    We loved this cottage. Very clean, updated, large kitchen for a small cabin, beautiful view. My only update to the listing would be that it sleeps 5 rather than 6.

    This cabin is conveniently located right near the water and provides beautiful views to enjoy from outside or inside. The beds are confortable, indoor seating and appliances are ample, and everything was well maintained and clean.
