Fall is the greatest time of year at The Golden Kettle Cottage! See what our guests are saying about their stay and book your fall getaway to experience the Golden Kettle Cottage!

"We had a short weekend with all three of our grown kids. This house was perfect. The hosts thought of EVERYTHING! It was pet friendly and she even had a kennel in the laundry room! I've never seen this before. Our biggest surprise was the water filter pitcher in the fridge bc we forgot to bring water bottles. The house is remote, so there's no running to the convenience store. We sat out on the front deck for coffee each morning. The house was emaculate with plenty of bedding (and then some)! We've stayed at a lot of vrbo's for travel softball, but we've never had such a stocked kitchen before with kcups, spices, olive oil, etc. She provided two kayaks, but we just stuck with our paddle boards. We had a great time and would most definitely return." -- Debbie

Warm evenings in August, but still a great time to enjoy the deck, and of course make smores! August also means Fall is right around the corner...and Fall is my very favorite time of year at The Golden Kettle Cottage. Be sure to get your stay on the books now!

Have you been dreaming of relaxing lake time this summer? 🚤 See what guests are saying about the The Golden Kettle Cottage!

"Great place! Listing was as described. Kitchen was well stocked and made preparing meals easy. The grill outside had everything needed. There was plenty of wood, fire starters, and lighters for the fire pit. House was extremely clean and cozy. The beds were comfortable and there were extra linens available, plus plenty of extra bath towels and beach towels. The public beach / kayak area was a short drive down the road. The beach was really shallow - perfect for families with kids. Kayaks included with the rental was a huge bonus - we had a great afternoon on the lake. The house was secluded and quiet, as well as the neighborhood. Sara was very responsive to any questions or concerns. We would definitely stay here again in the future."--Cara

"The cottage was wonderful! It was just what we were looking for- a peaceful place to relax near the water with plenty of boat parking . My husband and his friend were able to get the boats in and out of the circle driveway without any trouble at all. We were able to grill out on the patio every evening, Sarah had everything!

The kitchen has just about anything you can think you might want for preparing a few meals. It was great! We will definitely look to stay at the cottage again next time we are in town."--Kelly
