A Hidden Gem on the Lake – Truly Special!

We just returned from an unforgettable stay at this beautiful lakefront cottage and are already counting down the days until we can come back!

From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this place is something special. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered to make your stay feel relaxing and luxurious. We were pleasantly surprised by so many little touches – from the high-end coffee machine (a dream for our morning rituals!) to the lovely Saje hand soap that added a spa-like feel to the bathrooms. Even the toilet paper was top-notch – it's rare to find that kind of attention to detail in a rental!

The cottage itself is spotless, cozy, and incredibly comfortable. It felt more like a boutique retreat than a rental – clean, well-furnished, and inviting in every way.

The outdoor space is just as amazing. There are two docks – one stocked with water toys (kayaks, paddleboards, and more), and the other perfect for lounging and sunbathing. Our dog had the time of her life diving off the dock to fetch her ball – it was pure joy to watch.

Leaving was honestly hard. It felt like home, only better. We're already planning our next trip back – this place is a true lakeside gem.

Big Mink Gateway was a great vacation spot. The lake and location was so peaceful. Cottage was very spacious for us and had everything we needed to just relax. Owners were very responsive and easy to work with. Thanks for sharing your special place with us.

We picked this cottage because my family owns a cottage on this lake and we KNOW that the lake is unparalleled... but what we didn't know is that this cottage is unparalleled as well! It's extremely convenient for families (they are well-equipped for all your baby/child needs), the cottage is clean and well-maintained, the afternoon sunshine/ pristine lake/outdoor playing space/ overall amenities and Nannas sunroom were a couple highlights of our stay. The communication with the owner was easy and friendly and the location is absolute perfection. Immediately upon entering, we knew we would be back. Once you go Mink, you never go back and the same can be said for once you stay at Big Mink Getaway.

Words can't even describe how perfect this place is. I feel in love with pictures and list of amenities (Mama loves her lists) and then on arrival was shocked at how much more amazing it was in person. Knowing my kiddos were safe in a kid proof cottage, with the shallow entry to the lake and then all the grass space to run around. And the kitchen! Everything you could think of or need for all chow down moments!

Cannot wait to return and make more memories with the family !
