Cute & Cozy Cottage
Cute and cozy cottage in a nice neighborhood. The lake was pretty, good for kayaking, not as much for swimming. Firepit was full of water cuz of all the rain we've had. Water has a lot of iron in it, but you can refill at iola sentry for 50 cents. Very clean and great that we can bring our dog. Lots to do in the area, Iola is very cute. Host very responsive. Very clean and we lived

Last minute getaway
We were looking for something on a lake with great fishing just to relax. This property was perfect. Nothing luxurious, big or fancy. Just a place to relax and enjoy great weather. The deck is great, kayaks and floatation raft were great.

Carmen’s Clean, Cozy, Cute, Comfortable Cottage
We stayed for the weekend to visit relatives for a camping trip, but we aren’t campers so we stayed at this cottage. In our opinion it’s much for comfortable than a sleeping bag. The view of Hatch Lake and sunsets are lovely and in the morning the Loons were making their beautiful sounds.

Family getaway
Was a nice getaway for our family. Great view right on lake. We enjoyed the firepit right by the lake with the view. Sunset was amazing. Our son loved getting in the water off the dock. Wish was better access from shore though but right off dock water still shallow to swim. Did a little kayaking which was fun and was our son's first kayak adventure and he loved it. The pie at Crystal Cafe in town was delicious!

Nice place
Very nice lake and cottage and only 2 hours form home. Great sunsets and good kayaking. We did have trouble with the door code still set for the previous renters. Insist on getting Carmin's phone number before you go. The next-door owner was having shoreline construction going on for two straight days. A large deiseal powered barge with a backhoe was banging away from 9am to 5pm.
