Peaceful Getaway
We enjoyed our stay at the Hotter cottage on Dad's Lake. It was so peaceful and the weather was perfect for our fishing adventures, walks, nights around the firepit and exploring Eagle River. The cottage has a lovely great room that we didn't use much which is a shame as the view of the lake in the morning is gorgeous. I would suggest putting a TV in that room for families to gather and really enjoy the setting. We had a group of 4 and did fine in the smaller living area next to the kitchen, but the early morning sunshine sometimes made it difficult to watch TV. Maybe a shade or blinds could be added here. Loved our week there and the colors were just starting to turn, so it was a sight to see. Recommend highly.

OK ..but
Biggest issue was the weather was hot and the lack of ac and especially dehumidifier was problematic. Was unaware the main bedroom was on a lower level which was also very dank and musty. Found it pretty unpleasant and definitely impacted our stay! Overall we found the house to have one good main living room which was nicely furnished etc but felt the rest of the house and outside area to be less than ideal but not terrible…

Washer and dryer with complimentary laundry detergent was very nice. Great stay! Had a great relaxing weak stay.

Truly a beautiful spot! The lake offered glimpses of eagles, loons, and deer. We enjoyed swimming, kayaking, & fishing. The no wake lake allowed our kids to explore without worry. The lake was quiet. The cottage offered beautiful views, plenty of space and activities for down times.
