About this property

Lake Front Cottage #7!

This lake front cottage is a step back in time. Crooked floors and ceilings only add to the charm. A simple clean way to watch the sun set at scenic Lake Beseck. Cast your line or go for a swim at the end of a sleepy summer day. The best way to get away from it all for some well deserved peace and quiet. Locally you can enjoy a round of golf at Indian Springs or Lyman's golf course . Pick your own fruit at Lyman Orchards. You can spend the day being adventurous at Powder Ridge Mountain Park & Resort. Have summer fun Zip Lining, disc golf, tubing, or mountain biking.

Nice cabin on the lake
Clean and peaceful cabin on a lake. Had it’s own dock so ideal for canoeing and swimming. Saw alot of fishing going on also on the lake. Location is close to restaurants, Lyman Orchards and a nice winery Roseblanca Vineyards. We also attended the Durham fair 2 miles away which had alot to do and events to attend.

Too short
Toilet too short, Oth headroom and height.Suggest handgrips near toilet to get up and on threshold to bedroom.Maybe the white cottage would be better for tall 80 plus gusts.

Lovely little getaway
Accurate descriptions and photographs make for no unpleasant surprises. The lake and the community around it (especially on weekends) also adds to the great vibes. Thanks, Dee!

Nice place on the lake
It was a lovely property, very quiet and quaint. I had an issue with the toilet and shower on the second day and I called and left a message with the Manager and within an hour I was contacted by the maintenance person. He followed up with a text that everything was good, and it was.

Slanted floors and coffee maker
While we had an absolutely wonderful time, the floors being “slightly tilted” was an understatement. The kitchen was at least 6” off center as was the bedroom. Wow!! Being one who has a bit of vertigo, it was a bit problematic. Also, having a hot cup of coffee in the morning on the deck of a lake house is a dream. Not the case here. Upgrade to a normal coffee maker that makes at least two cups at a time would make for a much more pleasant experience. Took a while to make just one cup let a lone two. As a side note: perhaps a full sized bathroom door?

A 5 star lakefront cottage
We had a wonderful short weekend at this lovely cottage. We enjoyed both the sunrise and sunset on the back deck overlooking the lake and also took full advantage of fishing off of the dock while we were there! The cottage is perfectly located near both shopping and restaurants, there is plenty of both in the area to choose from. It made for a perfect weekend getaway and we highly recommend this place for anyone looking to getaway for a lakefront weekend.

Perfect spot for visiting Wesleyan
The property is about 15 minutes from Wesleyan. The cottage is quirky, with some slightly slanted floors and uneven height ceilings. I loved the unique, charmimg place. The lake is just a few steps away from the cottage, and if you are lucky, you may catch a bass or two. I'd definately return when in the area again.

Adorable little house
We enjoyed staying at this property. We had an issue with the circuit breaker and the owner was super responsive even late in the evening. One thing to note is that it does have low ceilings and a small shower so if you’re tall (above 6 feet) it may not be super comfortable. The lake and outside seating area was beautiful.

Quaint Cottage
My husband and I both loved the cottage. We enjoyed grilling and sitting by the fire pit. The location was perfect. We biked, hiked and did kayaking. The neighbor was so sweet and she let us use her kayak. Just a wonderful and relaxing weekend. Definitely a destination for next year. Thank you!

A cool little (and I mean little) lakehouse with caveats
A nice location for sure. The cottage is right near the lake shore. If you're into fishing or swimming it is a nice spot. It is def for 2 people max. People nexr door were nice and welcoming. There is a major issue that I'd like to highlight. If you're taller than 5'10" you will not be able to move around the bathroom or the kitchen without craning your neck. The ceiling is low and is slanted and is covered in sharp spray on. It can be very annoying. The bathroom door is hung rustic outhouse style ie you will hear sounds coming from the bathroom. Lastly ir would be good to have a nicer selection of plates and drinking cups but it's not a biggie. So - all in all a 3/5.

Great place
This is a very rustic cabin updated with modern ammenities. Right on the lake with gas grill and gas firepit. Dock made it easy to get in and out of the water. We spent most of our time on the deck relaxing. There are a lot of motor boats and sea-doos so it was a little noisy sometimes. Kitchen was adequatly stocked with dishes. The bed was very comfortable. Planning a return trip in the future.
