Serenity now… our private and cozy cottage is located on a peninsula in East Twin Sister’s lake. It’s a private access spring fed lake with a handful of other cottages. Features a shallow bay area where small children can play with supervision, and separate dock area to enjoy swimming and boating without the risk of large wake or heavy traffic. Private water access makes for great fishing of small and largemouth bass (1.5 – 2 lbs at maximum size). The 2-acre lot provides ample privacy to enjoy nature and serenity with lots of opportunity to hike and explore. ATV and snowmobile trails are a short distance from the property.

TESTIMONIALS

A perfect, peaceful get away. The cottage was super clean and well equipped. It had very easy access to a calm and perfectly cool lake. I made good use of the canoe and enjoyed looking for all the different wildlife. Dockside cocktails watching a different sunset every evening was so relaxing. Loved it all around.  —Cathy M. (Jul 2023)

 

The cottage was very clean when we arrived. The .location is great, lake is warm, surrounded by forest. We love it there and will return in a heart beat. —Anna D. (Aug. 2020)

 

We had a great stay At Hailey’s. The cottage was well equipped with a lot of extra amenities. The property was nicely situated (west sunset) lakefront with 2 docks to accommodate our fishing and kayaking and sunbathing. We rent a lot over the years and this was the best accommodation we have come across in this price range (very reasonable). The owner accepted a few phone calls on a few questions we had.—Robert W. (July 2019)

 

Hailey’s Hideout is a beautiful cottage. The lake is very quite and relaxing and a great place to fish. We had a great time. Can’t wait to return. —Deborah M. (July 2018)
