You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

‣ Lake Livingston Waterfront House, Sunset views. Deep water, Fishing, Kayaking.

Welcome to your peaceful lakefront retreat on Lake Livingston! Located on the east side of the lake at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, our cottage offers beautiful open-water views, deep water access, and a great fishing spot. The opposite side of the property faces a channel, providing additional water views and a peaceful area to explore by kayak or boat for fishing. We provide kayaks, a paddleboard, a large lily pad, and inflatable water toys for your lake adventures.

During the summer, when lake conditions are calmer, our fishing light is set on a timer to help attract fish in the evening. Guests can enjoy fishing, watching fish gather around the dock, and feeding catfish around dusk while enjoying the peaceful lake atmosphere. For safety, the fishing light is removed from the lake during periods of severe weather or rough lake conditions.

The large lakeside deck, patio, and yard provide the perfect space for relaxing, outdoor dining, and spending time with family and friends. Enjoy your meals at the outdoor dining table while taking in the peaceful lake views. During late spring and early summer, the sunset lines up directly in front of the property across the lake, while later in the summer it shifts towards Indian Hills, still offering beautiful open-water views and colorful evening skies.

The garage game area includes a foosball table, air hockey, electronic dartboard, yard games, and more.

Boat ramps are located just 3–5 minutes from the cottage, making lake access convenient for boating and fishing guests. Pinwah Marina is just across the cove for fuel and boating needs. The cottage is approximately 15 minutes to Onalaska and 18 minutes to downtown Livingston for restaurants, shopping, and groceries.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private balcony or patio. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

We’ve started an annual fishing trip last year and looked for somewhere that had easy access to the water. This property checked all the boxes for us plus some. Jim was very quick to respond. All the instructions were straightforward. I have zero complaints about our visit and would definitely book again.

This house on the lake was amazing. My family loved the layout of the house especially the outside area. They had plenty of games to play and we enjoyed fishing and smoking ribs on the grill. We did not have any issues definitely will be booking this lake home again. Thanks again for helping us capture some more life long family memories.
