Quaint Cottage Retreat on Secluded Cove of Wall Lake

Quaint, cozy cottage is a true treasure! While a lot of places on a lake are right next to each other, this property is a truly private oasis, set back in the cove, surrounded by trees and located on a dead-end road with only woods across the road. The cottage has been completely renovated and updated, and from the moment you walk in the door, the vibrant colors make you feel cheerful. We call it our "happy place." It has a welcoming mud room with cubbies to put your shoes, and hooks to hang your coats. There is a convenient washer and dryer in the mud room. There are two welcoming bedrooms, one with a full bed with views of the woods and tall pines, and the other with a queen bed with a view of the side yard. Both have ample storage space in the closets, bed frame drawers and nightstands so you can make yourselves at home. There is also a queen sized air mattress for two additional guests. There is one full bathroom. There is a galley kitchen with built-in banquette seating in the dining room. The table is on wheels for easy access to the corner seating. The living room is very cozy with modern amenities, including a couch and love seat and swivel chairs to face the tv or the lake. It is tastefully decorated with metal and wood wall art and built in book cases filled with books and games for your enjoyment. There is a bonus room off the living room for reading and relaxing or just viewing the cove. A sliding glass door opens up onto the phenomenal 700 square foot deck that offers outdoor space with a grill and refrigerator and spaces for gathering, eating, relaxing and making life-time memories. Steps off the deck lead to a stone fire-pit with additional seating, and outdoor lighting to set the mood. There is also a dock with a small table and chairs to have coffee in the morning. Although pets are not allowed, there are enough creatures to keep you company. From the cove you can sit back and listen to the bullfrogs, watch the blue herons, and fish from the dock. Although we don't allow people to bring in their own boats to this private lake, there are kayaks, a pedal boat, and a small fishing boat with oars for use to explore the lake. The pedal boat holds 4 people up to 800 pounds and has a platform from which you can dive off of, and a ladder to climb back up on. You can also fish off the pedal boat. Also, it’s important to note that there is no beach or recommended swimming in the cove, but the pedal boat allows you to get to the open lake for a refreshing swim. There is also a "Point" on the lake where people can go to swim that is shallow and people also dock their boats or enjoy floating. This is truly an oasis. Looking forward to your visit. You won't be disappointed with this cozy cottage retreat to replenish your spirit!

Beautiful Home and Cozy
This place was even prettier in person. They had everything you could think of to accommodate a guest. We would love to come back in the warmer months to use of the paddle boat.

Much needed long weekend retreat for 18th wedding anniversary
The property is exactly as described. Its well laid out and very nicely decorated. The paddle boat is fantastic and worked well for our fishing excursions on the lake where we caught bass, perch, crappie, and bluegill all day long. This was our first trip to the great lake area and I do not believe we could have picked a better location.

If you haven’t been here you need to!!!
My daughter and I have been coming here for three years in a row! There is no better place to relax, regroup and just find that peace you’ve been looking for! The hosts are the kindest, sweetest and most genuine people you will ever meet! From sunrise to sunset you can enjoy the sounds of nature, kayak or pedal pontoon the lake, nap or read on the reclining deck chairs, play cards or have a drink at the table on the dock or just hang out in the cottage and enjoy the comfort of feeling like you have just found a home away from home 💕 You will not regret choosing this cottage to make your memories in!!!

A great little cottage retreat
We really enjoyed this nicely decorated clean and bright roomy cottage in Delton. Living in Arizona, we especially enjoyed the green trees, grass, and the country feel of the area along with the surrounding lakes. Being on the cove was quiet and we did enjoy a paddle boat ride when the weather cooperated. The cottage was well equipped with everything we needed. The hosts were very accommodating and responded very quickly to any questions we had. Checkin and checkout process was also super easy. Our only recommendation would be to add memory foam toppers to the beds. Overall, the place is a gem and we would definitely stay here again!

The Sweetest Home Away From Home
This was our 3rd stay and it is like visiting an old friend. Tammy and Paula are very thoughtful hosts. I have allergies they always look out for things they know are a concern for me. This time I even forgot to remind them when I scheduled our visit but that was not a problem the cottage was prepared as always. Trying to plan a fall.

Awesome for fishing!
We absolutely loved our stay! We spent a lot of time on the dock fishing and on the peddle boat fishing. We went out on the peddle boat / pontoon boat to go swimming as well. You wouldn't want to swim right off the dock. It's shallow and has lots of lily pads....but that's what makes it great for fishing and that's what we were more interested in. We caught tons of bluegill, bass and a few others (perch, crappie, & huge bowfin.) The house was super clean and had all the extras. We had everything we needed to cook and hang out. The outdoor space is great with a huge deck and a fire pit too. There was a fishing boat and 4 kayaks. We kayaked a lot too. The lake is huge, but was very calm while we were there. So boating was ideal. The instruction binder from the owner had lots of great instructions and tips. I cannot think of a single negative. It's exactly what we were looking for: very private, quiet, and a great vacation spot.

Perfect VRBO
We were totally happy with this home -- beautifully appointed, water use variety -- kayaks, huge pedal boat ,row boat -- we used them all and had a great time. Loved the seclusion of the small cove behind a huge lake. Owners were very responsive to all our pre-stay questions. The house is not very large but for a family of three or four ,it is very ample. I could add many more compliments -- we will be back next year!

Couldn’t be better
I’de like to say it was a horrible time just to keep this little gem to ourselves but as we were staying there, we were actively trining to book our next vacation there too and everything was all booked up so I think the cats already out of the bag. The place is even better than the pictures. We took out the peddle boat which was a lot of fun. I would just say if you’re shorter than 5.3 it might be hard to reach the peddles. That is my only negative on this place. It’s on a beautiful lake. While there are a lot of neighbors, the lake didn’t feel crowded and all the people we met were very friendly. The deck was beautiful and there were at least 50 places out there to sit and enjoy the view. I really cannot say enough good things about this place. If you’ve come to the reviews because you’re thinking of booking, don’t hesitate. Someone else will be taking your dates while you’re thinking. It’s got 2 bedrooms so it’s plenty of space for a small family or 2 couples.

Fall family trip
The cottage is warm, friendly and inviting. The scenery was beautiful. It is the perfect place to unwind with friends and family, play board games, watch TV, or enjoy time on the lake. Given that it was fall, we did not go out onto the lake, but we did enjoy fishing from the dock. We were able to catch several lovely fish, including a couple of big mouth bass. My partner caught her very first fish ever at this property, which will be a memory that we both cherish forever. This property is stocked with everything that you need from toiletries to linens to spices in the kitchen and recreational gear. The decor is amazing. He will definitely enjoy your stay at Tammy and Paula’s.

Peaceful Paradise
If you are looking for a place that says “Come on in, relax, enjoy, just breathe” this is the place you want to be! From the warm and comforting interior design to the spacious deck, and dock, this place has everything you’re looking for. There is a lot to do, kayaks, peddle pontoon, a rowboat for fishing, yard space for kids or a corn hole game and a nice size fire pit area. You can also choose to just sit in the reclining deck chairs to read a book, listen to nature, watch the sun set or nap! The patio table and chairs on the dock are a perfect place to soak up the sun, play cards, have an afternoon drink or watch the fish swim. The owners are very friendly, kind and courteous, they have put a lot of thought and care into making sure that your stay here is everything you hoped it would be! This was our second visit here and we will continue to come back!
