Property details

Take it easy at this unique and private getaway. With one bedroom one bath it's great for you to come relax, or bring that special someone to come enjoy the tranquility of this small lakefront community. While this cabin isn't lakefront, there's access provided less than a quarter mile away with two Adirondack chairs at the cabin if you choose to take them to sit or fish by the lake. Enjoy the large screened in front porch. Or the fieldstone patio directly outside of the master bedroom.

The bedroom is the heart of this cabin, with a bed set beneath an arched, exposed-beam ceiling and touches of ambient lighting that give the space its cozy, rustic character. A wardrobe offers a place to unpack and settle in, and extra pillows and blankets are on hand for added comfort.

The full bathroom includes hot water and a hair dryer, while the kitchen is set up for real cooking, with a stove, refrigerator, freezer, dishwasher, coffee maker, and basic pantry essentials for preparing meals during your stay.

A private living room adds space to unwind indoors, with books and a TV for quieter moments, and a fireplace (fitted with guards) brings warmth on cooler evenings. As a single-level home designed for two, it's an easy, low-key space to settle into and make your own.

You'll have the whole cabin to yourselves, including the private living room, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom, plus the screened front porch and fieldstone patio outside.

Free parking is available on the premises. Please note that reaching the front door involves two sets of steps, so keep this in mind if stairs are a concern.

Lake access is available less than a quarter mile from the cabin — it's a short walk down, and you're welcome to bring the provided Adirondack chairs or use the kayak. This is a quiet, private setting, so please be mindful of the tranquility of the surrounding community.

The property requires two sets of steps to reach the front door, please take this in consideration if you're booking as it may be more of a challenge than you're willing to overcome. Lake access in front of 758 Terra Alta Lake Rd. It's posted no trespassing but you're welcome to enjoy it as I own it.

We stayed there back in July and then again this weekend and will definitely be back again very soon. Amazing little cabin with lots of history. The host is great to deal with.

Cute little place to kick back and relax. Very quiet and serene and private. We really enjoyed our quick weekend getaway, and will definitely go back. Host is responsive...and kind. Cottage is well-stocked, well-maintained and comfortable.

I absolutely loved our stay at the Airbnb. The location was great and it was real nice and quiet and a very clean area and the bedroom was absolutely fantastic.

Our stay was so cozy that it felt like home! The bedroom is romantic with its floor to ceiling rock walls and retro fireplace, and the bed was huge and comfortable. After a long day of hiking, the real fireplace in the living room was the perfect way to relax and set the mood. The kitchen is fully stocked, so we could have cooked an entire meal if we'd wanted to. The location is ideal for adventurers, with so much to do and explore within an hour's drive. Venturing out isn’t even necessary - the property is gorgeous with views of and access to Terra Alta Lake. We will definitely be back!
