About this cottage rental
Make this quiet Lake Hamilton cottage your base for Northwoods mountain biking, Oaklawn race weekends, and relaxing Hot Springs getaways. Planning a winter getaway? Make Northwoods mountain biking and exploring Hot Springs the focus of your stay. Northwoods Trails is approximately a 5–10 minute drive away, with more than 31.5 miles of trails for a range of riding abilities. Check trail conditions before heading out. After a day on the trails or at Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort, come back to lake views, a full kitchen, a washer and dryer, covered parking, and a peaceful private peninsula away from the hotel corridor.
The view is the star here: Mount Riante in the distance, main-channel Lake Hamilton water, and a due-south exposure that usually brings a nice breeze. We are just outside the Hot Springs city limits, so you are close to restaurants, downtown Hot Springs, Bathhouse Row, Oaklawn, marinas, and lake activities without feeling crowded.
Dock access is seasonal. Lake Hamilton’s lower winter water levels can limit dock use. Dock usability depends on water levels during your stay. Summer guests can use the boat dock, with a marina a few hundred yards away for gas. Put in at Hill Wheatley Park, then hop across the main channel to the cottage dock. Covered parking is available for your vehicle or boat trailer. The driveway is steep, so boaters should launch before arriving at the cottage.
This is a good fit for mountain biking trips, Oaklawn weekends, lake trips, and guests who want a private place to unwind after exploring Hot Springs.

Nothing to complain about. The home was easy to find and we were all so impressed with the home itself along with the neighborhood it's in. The view is absolutely breathtaking. Pictures do not do this place justice. We felt right at home. My husband and myself along with an oldest son (38) and a 12 year old grandson spent the weekend here. My son stayed on either the porch or the deck most of the time while we were there and the grandson wanted to swim the whole time. Our two dogs loved the view from the big windows. This is my new favorite home away from home. From sunset til after dark, we all sat outside and enjoyed the early morning sunrise along with a cup of coffee and watching early risers out on the water with their boats. After dark was just as beautiful from the lights from all around the lake from other homes and boats out after dark. We saw the same geese family every day and little turtle heads popping up out of the water and occasionally fish letting us know they were out there. This place was just amazing and very peaceful. Everything was perfect. We didn't want to leave. Until the next time, we plan to return. Thank you Chris and Lisa.

It was a decent stay at a fun location. The place was reasonably sized, for what was offered at a lake guest house. House has two bathrooms, one (very small) shower, and a gorgeous view. If you are planning on spending most of your time ON the lake, and only sleeping in the property, then it's undoubtedly worth it. However, cleanliness was... a factor. There's a decent gap in the bottom corner of the entrance, where bugs stream in and out. It's damaged, significantly, and we spent more than a little time fighting off mosquitoes and spiders, of which there were many. When we cleared the linens off the bed, as instructed, not only did we find someone's used contact in the bed — we found a MASSIVE urine stain on the mattress itself. We recommend a cover, just to prevent that one.As a last note, the small shower knob needs to be potentially tightened, as it leaks scalding hot water, which can be an unpleasant surprise when there's few places to move to escape it.Driveway is steep. Perilously steep. Get your brakes checked before you come to the property, and make sure your car can handle a potential climb, because it'll put your vehicle through its pacesAll in all, the property is a decently kitted guest house for the price, but without a few crucial changes, it would be difficult to say that we'll be back for the price.
