Bring marshmallows, not laptops! Lkefront on Autumn Lake, 2min to Salmon River!

Come and experience the excitement of the Salmon River by staying at La Bella Vista. You can fish, hike the Salmon River Falls, hunt or hike thousands of acres of state land, or explore our private Autumn Lake while staying in our fully remodeled, 1-bedroom and 1-bathroom cottage that can sleep four guests.

Cottage 1 has a spacious great room/living room with tall ceilings and lights wrapping around one of the beams. The kitchen has a full-size refrigerator, a 24" gas stove/oven, a quartz countertop with a custom tile backsplash, and a stainless sink. The dining space can accommodate four guests and be prep space if required.

Cottage 1: The living room is contemporary yet comfortable, furnished with a leather sofa, chairs, and many comfy pillows. In the winter, you can enjoy the gas fireplace while reading a book. Just off the living room is a twin daybed with a trundle, and the bedroom has a queen bed that can sleep two. String lights behind the queen bed provide a lovely nightlight or soft ambient lighting.

The bathroom has a full-size tub shower with custom tile and a rain shower head to help you relax after a long day of fishing, riding, and hiking. The upgraded flooring adds to the overall atmosphere of the space.

You can step outside through the glass sliding doors onto the attached deck to grill your meal or sit and enjoy the beautiful view of Autumn Lake. Then, walk down the outdoor steps to your private fire pit and roast marshmallows to round off your stay.

As our guests, you'll have access to three docks, a man-made beach, and a charming pergola at the beach. We provide boats free of charge for those who love the water, ensuring everyone can enjoy the lake. Life jackets are also provided for your safety and peace of mind (bring special sizes). The docks, beach, and boats are shared. We have lots of boats; no one will go without them.

We provide essential cookware and kitchen tools, dishes, and flatware, a microwave, toaster, and regular coffee maker, dining room-bar seating, great room living room space, leather sofa, chairs, daybed, trundle, queen bed, ceiling fans, heat, AC, sheets, quilts or comforters, standard pillow, and bath towels. We even provide a couple of rolls of TP and paper towels. We've considered everything to ensure your stay is as comfortable as possible.

We understand that your furry friends are part of your family, and we're delighted to welcome them at La Bella Vista on Autumn Lake! Bring a maximum of 2 pets (with an additional $100 pet fee) and let them enjoy the vacation with you.

Nothing fancy but fit the bill
We stayed in the smallest cottage overlooking the pond/lake. It was fine. My wife had minor issues with fitted sheets that didn't stay on the bed and flimsy towels, and the fact our GPS didn't recognize the street, but it was a good place to stay for a birthday weekend and attending a wedding at the Tailwater Lodge.

Beautiful!
We had a girls weekend and it was perfect! The house was clean and just as advertised. We had a plumbing issue and the owner came within an hour to fix and he ended up replacing the toilet! It solved the issue right away. Having use of kayaks and a canoe was wonderful and the lake was bigger than we thought. We would definitely stay here again.

Autumn lake stay
We had a great time on Autumn Lake! Just enough room in the cabin for our family of 4. Kitchen is very small but functional for sure. Same with the shower, but everything was clean and enjoyable to live in for 3-4 days. Also, we could’ve used a few extra dish towels in the kitchen. Loved the fire pit area, docks for fishing and the kayaks/boats!!
