Rice Lake
The views from the house and patio are amazing. The lake is very peaceful in September. The house had everything one could need and Donna was very responsive throughout the entire process. We would love to return next year.

Lakeside retreat - location, location, location
What a fantastic spot on the shores of Rice Lake! The yard provides a beautiful setting for meals and visiting, as well as relaxing and reading, or just enjoying the views. The early birds in our group enjoyed the sunrise over the lake and visits from a great heron. A bonus: when the weather turned scorching hot, those views were all available in the comfortable living room. Inside, the house itself is homey. This is not a faceless, corporate vacation rental. This feels like a cottage belonging to a favorite aunt or grandma. Beds are comfy, plenty of quality pillows, and options to arrange as two twins or kings in two of the bedrooms. The kitchen is amply stocked, including spices. There are plenty of towels, both for bathing and beach use. All of the "lake toys" are a real bonus. We loved having access to kayaks, a canoe, and paddle boat to explore Rice Lake. The kitchen is nicely updated for cooking, but you will want to visit some terrific local restaurants. Turtle Lake Tap & Grill and the Duck Inn aren't too far away. We also enjoyed delivery from Gus's Pizza in Whitewater on our first night in town.

Beautiful View
Very well appointed property with exceptional views. The only thing was that being August the water was pretty green. We swam however, and used the kayaks, canoe, and water toys! I would recommend the property.

Beautiful, peaceful lake
The cottage was very clean and well-maintained. Very nice living area to watch movies and play games, and with three bedrooms there was still plenty of room for everyone have their "me" space. It was a very peaceful lake and easy to launch the kayaks in. Enjoyed out stay very much!
