The private deck, dock offers an excellent panoramic view which is perfect for bird watching and taking in the beautiful evening sunsets. It’s also a fisherman’s paradise. Don’t forget your pole.

Anniversary Getaway

Beautiful property right on the Lake. The property is clean with a nicely appointed kitchen. The opportunities to enjoy so many aspects of nature were endless. Kayaking at Sunrise was a delightful experience on our 48th Wedding Anniversary.

Stunning views of Soda Bay

We came into town for our friends Labor Day party and were able to rent this amazing cottage right on the water. The views from the back deck are absolutely gorgeous! House a very spacious lay out with two good sized bathrooms and a really nice kitchen. We were able to BBQ dinner one night while taking in the lake views. Will hopefully stay here again in the future!

Short stay at the lake

Nice spot right on the lake. Our stay was only a couple of days at the end of a longer vacation. Lots of things to explore during a longer stay. Enjoyed our stay though. Contacted the host a couple of times and he was very quick to respond and very helpful. Thanks!

Perfect Location Cute House

We stayed here for 4 days, and had the best time. We were able to dock our boat at the private dock behind the house, and we fished from the dock every day. Would recommend kayaking in the morning, as it was so peaceful and the water was so still. The house itself was so cute. We loved the wine that was left for us by the owners (thank you)! Will definitely plan another trip again.

Great for stargazing!

My spouse and I wanted to stay in this area to stargaze with our basic telescope. The cottage has a beautiful view of the sky. A couple of bowls in the cupboard has been put away without being cleaned first, but our stay was otherwise great. Nicole was very responsive and kind.

Kayak on Soda Bay

Great property for a small group and dogs. Greeted by nice wines. Fabulous to have waterfront and be able to slip their kayaks right in the water. Clean and quiet property. Relaxing yard and deck. Spotted an otter, herons, and egrets.

Nice Lakehouse & Great Location

Excellent communication. Place was nice and clean and had pretty much everything you would need. Lake view was gorgeous but unfortunately the algae blooms made the water unswimmable. Other than that, we were able to enjoy the kayaks and had a wonderful time here!

Rejuvenating Weekend Away

My family (self, husband, 10yr old, and dog) had a deeply relaxing stay at this perfectly located cottage. The views overlook the private dock, expanse of the lake and mountains beyond. A nearby wetland became ideal for bird watching all day long and a short paddle away and we could watch the bubbling action of natural volcanic springs. It was a perfect getaway to play games, paddle board and kayak, and spend time with family. The hosts were responsive and very welcoming with local wine.

Perfect Getaway - Beautiful view

What a wonderful stay for a post Christmas/New Years getaway! The weather wasn't perfect but it didn't matter since the house was warm and comfortable, there were lots of games and puzzles and one only needed a hot beverage (also provided) to relax and enjoy the view of the lake. The house was clean, updated and the beds were comfortable. We had fun in the kayaks once the weather cleared up. The welcome wine was a wonderful touch as well. Thank you thank you!

Made for those balmy nights watching the sunset and the stars rise

My favorite spot was looking back to the house and seeing Mt Konocti looming above. But there was also a young family of Northern Goshawks (I think) eager for their parents to come home with supper - an amazing sight and and sound. Sunsets were amazing and we caught a few of the laggard Perseids as they skipped off the atmosphere. For city dwellers seeing the night sky where there is no light pollution is an indelible memory and visual feast of fascination and exploration.

Wonderful Stay

What’s there not to like about this property?! Everything you could need is at your fingertips. They two kayaks were perfect for my wife and I. Launching them from the private dock was amazing! There is also a little hot spring less than a minute kayak ride from the dock! We brought our own groceries and the house had everything else we needed. We enjoyed all of our meals outside and had a wonderful time using the fire cooking bbq. The welcome binder was extremely informative with a lot of great info! Host left some surprise welcome gifts as well! All in all, highly recommend this home!
