THE PERFECT LIL’ COTTAGE

What a beautiful cottage in a quaint, red-filled area a short walk to Walloon Lake. The fall colors were all around and the cozy, comfortable cottage was the perfect way to be welcomed home. Our host, Scott, was easy to communicate and has created a home away from home.

The perfect cottage!

We were having a family reunion and needed an extra cottage to hold our expanding family. This cottage was perfect because it’s so close to ours that family members could easily run between the two. Perfect size for six people. Well laid out floor plan and great outdoor space..spacious front porch and back patio. And sooo clean! We will definitely be renting this again!

Pleasant Stay

The hosts were responsive with questions and the house was comfortable and well maintained. It was very close to downtown Walloon Lake with only a 5-min walk. The house was very clean and had a lot of extra bath and beach towels available. It also had a huge laundry room, a small dishwasher, and a mini split air conditioner to keep the upstairs bedrooms cool. We appreciated having Wi-Fi as well as Apple TV. We would recommend the house and stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Scott Hutchinson

Host profile image
Welcome to our Walloon Lake Cottage my name is Scott Hutchinson and I appreciate you taking the time to view our cottage. I've felt very privileged to consider Walloon my home as I spent the first 24 years of my life here in the village. Upon starting my own family with my wife and son and daughter I look forward to each visit full of memories, stories and good old family fun as we build upon the 3rd generation of our family!

Why they chose this property

Walloon has been an intricate part of my life as it's one of those places that is very rare and hard to explain to those who haven't experienced it first hand. The history of 6-7 generations in the village and around the lake are what make this one the most unique places int he world. Family and friends are brought together in a way that only can be experienced by spending a Summer here in the village and on the lake. As one that grew up in Walloon full time, I can say it was one of the best childhoods one could of ever had. Nostalgia sinks in just thinking about what Summer days are like whether your on the lake tubing/water skiing, the front porch reading a book and playing board games or feeling the Summer breeze while watching a perfect sunset. There isn't a moment that goes by where Walloon isn't on the forefront of my family's minds. When Summer ends the planning and count down to next years vacations sets in!
