Lovely getaway with friends
We really enjoyed our stay and girls getaway at the Bickle cottage. The Bickle sisters were extremely responsive before, during and after our visit. the cottage is very nicely decorated, clean, cozy and charming. The new boathouse is gorgeous. As we were there Sept mid week it was quiet.The kitchen is well stocked and bedrooms comfortable. Thank you Bickle Sisters!

Amazing Modern Cottage
We had an absolutely great time at this cottage! It was even more impressive in person than the pictures - the Bickle sister thoughts about every minute detail and made everything easy, from getting the kayaks/ canoes to throwing away the garbage. We would recommend this to everyone, and definitely stay again! Liam

Our stay was was great. The cottage was cozy but with a nice comfortable modern feel. The kitchen was amazing. The views of the lake from the deck were beautiful but even if you wanted to stay inside you could get a great view of the sunset. Bedrooms were all clean with nice beds. Loved how they offered canoes and kyaks aswell. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to enjoy a waterfront property

A perfect weekend, grateful!
The Bickle cottage was lovely in every respect. It was both homey and classy. Our family and friends were perfectly accommodated in the bedrooms, large common areas and waterfront. We really enjoyed our campfires, exploring the lake, generous common areas for discussion, games and music. We would love to make this our annual cottage vacation place!

Checks all the boxes
Way to many pluses to list. Ill try anyway. Beautiful cottage interior. Very comfortable. Fans in the room (big plus). Great kitchen island. Seating for family meals around diningroom table or sitting out front enjoying the sun. Good yard with space to enjoy a fire. The only thing that woukd be better is a bit more yard space and entry into the water thats a bit easier. It had everything we needed.

Fantastic Family Vacay at Bickle Cottage
Our family of 8, plus two dogs, had an absolutely fantastic time, and made some wonderful memories, over our week long stay. This cottage has been thoughtfully and tastefully renovated and provides all of the modern conveniences while still keeping the wonderful character and charm of the original cottage. The kitchen is bright, modern and well appointed. The family/dining room area is open, airy and spacious with a spectacular view of the lake. Beds were super comfy. Greatly appreciated the washer/dryer. Lovely sitting area on the back porch and at the front of the cottage there is plenty of seating and was quite lovely as well. We would highly recommend this cottage and would love to return one day.

Fabulous Family Vacation
The Bickle Cottage was the perfect size for our family vacation including 6 adults & 2 children. The cottage was clean & well equipped - beds were made up and there were soft, clean sheets on the beds and plenty of bath towels. We brought our own beach towels to use outside. Kitchen had most cooking utensils and some basic spices, food wrap/foil, and small appliances we needed to prepare meals. The cottage is hooked up to a septic & has well water so be aware that water conservation is necessary. We bought a couple of large water jugs to go on the water tower dispenser to use for drinking & coffee/tea. We loved that it was right on the lake and we had our own dock to park & tether our small boat to. The lake was shallow but be prepared for a mucky, weedy walk into the water (bring water shoes!). Our 2 grandkids loved fishing off the dock and we're excited to catch little sunfish! Cottage owners, Karen & Laura, were prompt when replying to any questions before and during our one week stay. Overall, we had a wonderful family vacation!
