    Other things to note

    Since Carson’s Cottage is a brand new build, we ask our guests to bare with us while we finish up our landscaping.

Great weekend for the boys

Location is amazing and lots of amenities. If it’s raining you have lots to do inside and lots of comfortable sleeping options. Great cooking tools to use as well. Brandon is easy to deal with and very thorough on communication.

Winter Cottage Getaway

Out 2 families try to getaway to a cottage for some winter fun every year. Carson’s Cottage is an amazing locale with a picturesque lake within easy strolling distance (or easy viewing distance from the hot tub!). Can only imagine how lovely it must be in the other seasons!There were plenty of sledding locations around the property as well at a nearby location that the owner cued us in about.We ran into a few glitches with wifi and the bbq but the owner was easy to contact and very prompt to reply.

Exceptional Getaway with Outstanding Hospitality

We had an absolutely amazing stay at this cottage to ring in 2025 with our extended family. The location was perfect—picturesque, peaceful, and the ideal winter getaway. The accommodations were outstanding, offering plenty of space, comfort, and all the amenities needed for a seamless stay, especially for a group our size (15 people).What truly set this experience apart was the exceptional hospitality of the owner, Brandon. He was incredibly responsive, graciously accommodating all our needs and requests throughout our stay. After we left, we realized we had forgotten some items, and Brandon went above and beyond to arrange shipment at his own cost—an incredibly kind gesture that speaks volumes about his dedication to guest satisfaction. Our entire group had a fantastic time, and we’re already looking forward to returning in the future. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a top-notch cottage retreat!
