About this property

Flowers Lake Cottage

The entire family can enjoy the 850 feet of lake frontage on Flowers Lake. This quiet lakeside setting offers top notch large mouth bass, catfish, and crappie fishing. The swimming is also great during the hot summer days. Only battery operated trolling motors are allowed on the lake so no need to worry about loud motorized boats and jet skis interrupting your stay. However, if these activities are your fancy then you can visit one of California's premiere water recreation areas at Lake Tulloch which is only a 15 minute drive.

We are only 3 miles to the Copperopolis Town Center and 15 minutes from one of the best golf destinations in central California, Copper Valley Resort. You can also spend the afternoon at the many wineries in Murphys. There are plenty of other activities to enjoy at nearby Moaning Caverns, Yosemite National Park, and Bear Mountain Ski Resort.

Short break away from the holiday festivities

A much needed break away from the holiday festivities for my husband and I and the cottage was perfect. 2024 was a difficult time for my husband with losing two family members. I wanted to gift him a peaceful place to just be in his thoughts. Steve was very accommodating and made this experience so helpful.

Incredible stay at a beautiful property!

We wanted to get off the grid with our teen boys and booked this house for 4 nights. The property is wonderful, tons of opportunity to be out on the creek, good fishing and beautiful views. Property manager was quick to respond to all of our questions and suggestions and we will definitely book again!

Great cabin to make unforgettable memories.

The cabin is a cute home that still feels newly built. The little lake is great for top water fishing, dinghy boating & kayaking. If you want a bigger lake for motor boats, jet skis & swimming, Lake Tulloch is a 15 min drive away. The owner is generous & is a proactive communicator. I'd totally stay he here againn and again.

Quiet and peaceful

The cottage was perfect for our family. We have 3 teens and brought our two dogs. Teens slept in the living room on the pullout sofa and in the bunk bed room. We hung out on the patio and listened to music while playing card games. We went down to the water and used the kayaks and paddle boards. We tried fishing, but we didn’t catch anything! It was so quiet and peaceful and the kids had a relaxing time.

Could be better

The house is isolated on many acres, which is lovely and quiet. That being said, it could use some TLC. Both sinks plugged up and the one with a disposal shot water, which made cooking difficult. There was Draino under the sink so I don't think it was a new problem. Also, there were only 3 rolls of toilet paper for our group of 6 who were staying for 4 nights (that wasn't enough). Lastly, the outdoor area by the house was nice, with a lovely pergola, but the addition of lights (or electricity there) is needed. Note that you aren't allowed a outdoor fire in the summer months due to fire danger and if you use the indoor fireplace, you need to clean it out afterward. The lake was fine for fishing but pretty stagnant and dirty so no one would get in. The boat was nice to take out around the lake though.

Great private cottage

I brought my teenagers boys and 3 of their friends and they had a blast. The paddle boat needs repair, water gets in. The lake view from the cottage is beautiful. The steps to the water would be easier to handle if they had rails. I did not need to use the kitchen but have to say it is pretty well equipped. The only thing I would recommend is to change the bathroom rug, it smells like mildew. We will definitely return.

It was wonderful, exactly as pictured, breathtaking sunsets! Our friends all warned us the bed would be horrible--it was good, don't be afraid. Everything we ate at the Town Square was great: pizza, ribs, ice cream and very dog friendly with outdoor seating. At 62 and 64 we are wondering how many years we will be able to get up/down the first few steps to the water, they are a bit steeper than average steps and I have arthritis. There is also a path without steps, that's where we saw the cottontail bunny. We're hoping for a week each year for the next five at least. We were not prepared for the cold first morning but after that it was warm early (we'll bring our sweatshirts next time :)

Our favorite getaway

The setting is idyllic - the pics are right on target, it really is beautiful; we are grateful for this getaway for our family. The owner and rental process are friendly and easy. It is a simple home environment - we had to buy toilet paper and there were no washcloths; towels are small but there are lots of blankets and we were super happy with the foldout sofas which are great for kids - adults who have sore backs, maybe not; because I cook I would need to bring some things the kitchen doesn't have (mixing size bowl, pyrex or trays for roasting, pitcher for drinks, some food prep utensils, stuff like that) but my husband and I and the kids like to take it easy when we are there and there are good places to eat out. The paddleboat needs repair (rudder doesn't work), and the boat has some marks of use (cracked bench = sharp metal) but we are there to experience simple pleasures (fish, swim, lay out) and the rejuvenation of the fresh air, quiet environment and beautiful nature all around. We would all grieve if this place weren't available - it truly is a very important retreat place for our family, has been for years, and the kids always say it's their favorite vacation that we take. I pray they never sell and if they do, they sell to us!

A Quiet Retreat

The Flowers Lake Cottage provided a nice retreat for our family. Situated only a few minutes away from a town and two hours from Yosemite, the location was ideal. Upon arrival, the house was clean and ready for us to make our home for three nights. Almost everything we needed in the kitchen was available and the grill outside was a nice option. I would definitely recommend this house if a traveler is looking for solace, access to a boat and fishing. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and the owner was responsive and provided thorough directions for checking in and out of the property.

I grew up in Michigan and went to Michigan State University. Shortly after relocating to California I was interested in purchasing something in the foothills. After a short search I bought this property. I've owned it since 1998 and has been a pleasure to share it with numerous families over the decades.
