Lake View Summer Escape - 6th Night FREE!

Wake Up to Nature’s Magic at Golden Kettle Cottage

Waking up at Golden Kettle Cottage is a peaceful, soul-soothing experience. After a restful night in one of our cozy beds, you’ll head to the kitchen for that essential first cup of coffee. A full-size 12-cup duo coffee maker stands ready—perfect whether you want a full pot or just a single serving. We provide a variety of coffee and tea to start your day right.

Wrap one of our luxurious throws around your shoulders, cradle your warm mug, and step onto the spacious deck. The morning air is crisp and fragrant with the scent of the woods. Sunlight glimmers across the lake, and if you’re lucky, you’ll catch a glimpse of white pelicans floating by. (Note: Spring and summer bring beautiful greenery, though some lake views are partially obscured compared to fall and winter.)

Surrounded by nearly two acres of forest, it’s common to spot deer, vibrant blue jays, cardinals, or our resident chipmunk, Theodore. Evenings are just as magical—spend them around the firepit or chiminea, roasting marshmallows and sharing stories under the stars.

Water Adventures Await

Bringing a boat? There’s ample space in our circle driveway, and a natural boat ramp is just half a mile away. Please note: the water at nearby ramps can be shallow and lacks a dock. For deeper access, public ramps near Grove/Honey Creek (15 minutes away) are a better bet.

You’ll also find a peaceful “beach” area at the point, ideal for swimming and kayaking. Two kayaks are provided—just bring your own life jackets and transport them the short half-mile down the road to the water. Cooler weather? Don’t miss the stunning sunsets at the point, even if you're not getting wet!

Comfort Meets Functionality

The cottage sleeps up to six guests comfortably and features an open-plan living space with plenty of seating and lake views. Curl up in front of the electric fireplace and watch your favorite shows on the 55” smart TV.

The fully equipped kitchen includes:

Full-size fridge
Gas stove
Microwave
Air fryer
Blender, toaster, food processor
Waffle maker
That fabulous duo coffee maker

Enjoy meals or games at the dining table for six.

Sleeping Arrangements:

Master Bedroom: Plush queen bed, queen sleeper sofa, Pack-N-Play, and a second smart TV

Meadow Room: Queen daybed with queen trundle + a cozy hanging egg chair, perfect for reading

Need to check in at work? A dedicated workspace includes a desk, lake view, printer, and keyboard. High-speed Wi-Fi is available throughout the home.

Washer and dryer included for your convenience.

Peace and Quiet

We wanted a getaway that was peaceful and quiet and we couldn’t have asked for a better place. The owners thought of everything from spices to coffee to pots and pans to soap to cozy blankets. We will definitely be back!

Enjoyed our stay

The property was very clean and was well stocked with spices, coffee and tea. The owners have thought of all that we could possibly need. Our fur boys enjoyed it too. The loved seeing all the deer come in to the yard. The fire pit was nice. It was a very remote area, so if you need to shop for anything, it is a 30 minute drive to town. We enjoyed our stay very much. Thank you for everything.

Our Golden Kettle Cottage Stay

Wow, This is one of the nicest Lake-house VRBOs that we have stayed in. An exceptionally well stocked kitchen which included cooking oil, spices, coffee and coffee filters and a filtered water pitcher provided for our use. Sara has thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and convenient. The house was very clean and the deck had plenty of seating. The listing was very accurate So there were no surprises. The house is very private and in a rural area so not close to shopping but we prepared for that. We would definitely consider a second stay.

Short Labor Day Weekend

We had a short weekend with all three of our grown kids. This house was perfect. The hosts thought of EVERYTHING! It was pet friendly and she even had a kennel in the laundry room! I've never seen this before. Our biggest surprise was the water filter pitcher in the fridge bc we forgot to bring water bottles. The house is remote, so there's no running to the convenience store. We sat out on the front deck for coffee each morning. The house was emaculate with plenty of bedding (and then some)! We've stayed at a lot of vrbo's for travel softball, but we've never had such a stocked kitchen before with kcups, spices, olive oil, etc. She provided two kayaks, but we just stuck with our paddle boards. We had a great time and would most definately return.

Great place

I loved the place very nice and quiet… unfortunately I did have a problem with bugs … I’m not one to kill just everything I see but I killed 3 roaches, a mole cricket that was on the bed and I let the spiders go… I understand it’s a country setting but not about some bugs on the counters..,

Last minute booking that was worth it!

We have been to Grand Lake several times but never stayed here. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, we found ourselves with out-of-town friends and no Fourth of July holiday plans. I reached out to Sara with some questions about the cottage and she was so quick to respond. She answered all of my questions and made me feel very comfortable about bringing company to a place we had never personally stayed. The cottage looked just as advertised. There were no surprises and we had everything we needed and more. Sara has done a great job with the "little" things. We had a blast!
