With the cooler weather, take a short drive to the Lakota Wolf Preserve to watch the wolves and listen to the howls of the wolf pack!
During the winter months, once the lake freezes over, be adventurous and spend the day skating or cross-country skiing, exploring all the coves and shorelines the lake has to offer. Join in a pick-up game of ice hockey or have your own skating party! Warm up by sitting lake front at your fire pit enjoying a warm cup of hot coco or hot toddy (whichever you prefer!) and making smores! If fishing is your thing, bring your tip-ups and spend the day out on the ice catching pickerel, pike and/or perch, with an occasional largemouth bass.

Summary: I was looking for a quiet space to spend a week reading, writing and knitting with lovely scenery. Lisa and Steve's cottage was just perfect. Beautiful scenery with the changing leaves and the sparkling lake. Lots of ducks for company. Cozy, comfy furnishings. All the amenities I needed as a single person. Although I didn't get to see any bears, there were fascinating birdsongs, especially in the evening. It was hard to believe I was only an hour and a half from home. It felt genuinely relaxing and removed from city life. I'll keep it in mind next time I need a quiet getaway.

Summary: Everything was just perfect! The cottage, the rooms and THAT VIEW!! Just looking down at the cove on the lake…. We found our happy place!! Sitting on the dock and watching the ducks swim by, kayaking around the lake, sitting by the outdoor fire at night… we would love to do that every day! Steve & Lisa have anything you could ever imagine needing… all nicely organized and clean! Just loved it!! Highly recommend this cottage!!

Summary: Nice place and enjoyed my stay. As pictured and described. This was October and unable to do much on the lake - summer must be great!
MJ L. Sep 24, 2023 11:21:16 PM
Summary: The cottage was perfect for my husband and me. The house is so well appointed! Plenty of pillows, blankets, kitchen items. Two living rooms is nice too. Of course the best part was being right on the lake with various seating areas, kayaks, paddle board, canoe, row and peddle boat! Very private and quiet. We loved being there. And Steve and Lisa are very friendly, helpful and responsive.

Summary: Lisa and Steve are amazing hosts; they live on adjacent property and respond to any questions or requests immediately. Steve took my husband fishing in his motorboat, that was super nice of him! House was extremely clean and cozy. Rental included 3 boats, which was awesome! Swimming at the lake was very fun, just be aware that you can’t swim right from the deck, there’s a short 2min walk or boat ride to get to the beach, our 4 y.o. grandson loved swimming and fishing there. And yes, wild life is amazing- you’ll not believe you’re in NJ, so beautiful! We definitely recommend Lisa’s and Steve’s place, and look forward to return for another short vacation for fishing and swimming

Summary: This is a very special place. The cottage is welcoming and well appointed with anything you might need. It’s location on a wooded cove is perfect for a quiet, relaxing stay. We enjoyed bird watching in the morning while drinking our coffee overlooking the lake. My husband enjoyed fishing on Cranberry Lake with access to the lake from the dock on property and the owners provide access to kayaks, row boat, canoe. The property is located close to several state parks as well with great hiking trails.

Summary: Lisa and Steve take pride in their cottage, and you feel like family.
SABINA R. Oct 1, 2022 09:19:25 PM
Summary: We couldn’t have been happier with this rental. The hosts, Lisa and Steve were wonderful! The cabin was pristine and the location was perfect! I would highly recommend!
Andrew P. Aug 25, 2022 10:49:22 PM
Summary: Couldn't say enough good things about Steve and Lisa, just lovely people who live nearby. The cabin is a wonderful refuge from the hectic daily life we are used to, and the well-appointed kitchen and dock with all kinds of watercraft, were a wonderful setting for a restful week in August. The place is set up to enjoy with patio tables, a firepit, and thoughtful touches like plenty of fans. We had a great escape here we hope to repeat next summer.
