Gun Lake Cottage - Bonfire, AC, Full Kitchen, Gazebo! Dock your boat or rent one

Cute 2 bedroom, 1 bath with a full kitchen, AC, heat, laundry room, towels, pillows, blankets, bonfire, dock, and more! One bedroom has a queen size bed while the other has a full size bed. We also have 2 queen size air mattresses to use. The Gazebo is perfect for enjoying morning coffee or relaxing at night. Fire up the grill or use the bonfire. We’re on the channel and have a dock you can use for your own boat or rent our pontoon (additional cost, please ask). We even have a 5-person pedal boat and 2 kayaks you are more than welcome to use to explore! You’ll have a great time out on Gun Lake! The sunrises/sunsets are gorgeous!

Any questions, please let us know. We hope you enjoy your stay at our Gun Lake Cottage!

Very Cute

It was a very nice cottage. It’s right on the water which is nice. We’re from Florida so seeing snow was a treat for us. We liked that there was a local grocery store not too far up the road. Overall it’s a nice place for a couple to stay or a couple with one child.
