The place has everything you need so all you need is your clothes and food! They even have spices and stuff for cooking! I have rented many places and this place has definitely taken the number 1 spot! Even the homeowner responded with help on shopping in the area! Definitely hope we race there again next year so we can rent the same place!!! ##### Misty E. Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Giddy P. May 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Just what we needed Cozy Cottage truly lives up to it's name. Located on a peaceful 28 acre lake with a private backyard and covered dock. We started our mornings on the lake shore in comfy lounge chairs under a large umbrella, fished from the dock durng the day and enjoyed the beautiful stars at night. The cottage was comfy (3 adults and 1 dog) and had everything we needed and more in the well stocked kitchen. We enjoyed all the extra amenities provided throughout the cottage and property. It was just what we needed to refresh and recharge. Very peaceful, quiet and relaxing. We look forward to booking again. ##### Giddy P. Stayed 4 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marcos A.

I am an Interlachen native and came back home for a funeral and needed a place for my family to land that was close to my parents. I didn't know I could find such a cozy, peaceful spot on my own hometown! The home was immaculate and eclectic. We only used the master suite, but the bed was extremely comfortable. The kitchen is fully stocked and makes it easy to fix meals on site. The back garden was an oasis. We enjoyed watching the sun rise over the lake from the rocking chairs and the wildlife in the backyard—tons of birds and a band of free-roaming cats who look like they're enjoying the lake life! While we didn't take full advantage of the lake because it was February, we did enjoy sitting on the dock and looking at the stars in the evening. If you're looking for a quiet place to get a little peace, this is it. We'd love to come back in summer so we can get a chance to jump in the lake! Many thanks to Christina for this comfortable space. ##### Heather L. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Edna H. Feb 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy Cottage The property was clean, cozy, and comfortable. The cottage was practically brand new inside and had all the creature comforts of home. It was peaceful and the neighborhood was quiet. Communication with the owner was outstanding from beginning to the end. We would highly recommend this property and will stay again on future trips. ##### Edna H. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Oct 3, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy Cottage Lake House is a MUST stay! I was looking forward to a bit of quiet time after a several year long project, and my idea of complete relaxation is finding a nice quiet place, and well, doing nothing ‘or fishing’. The dock has Lilly pads right off the dock which is ideal for several fish varieties. I can say I enjoyed every moment of my time at this cozy cottage. The layout of this cottage is perfect with family, dining, and kitchen area all-together. The interior is completely renovated, and I really enjoyed the design and decor. The kitchen was also perfectly placed for getting out (and in) to the grill which is right down the stairs. Watch that first step! Initially, this was going to be my only negative for this Florida gem, but I immediately got used to it, and forgot all about it aside from a quick caution. The outside is where the magic is as there are many beautiful plants (lime tree, so bring margarita fixings!), and a lovely patio with rocking chairs. I very much liked eating breakfast and dinner watching over the lake. The lake dock is fantastic with so many items to make your time in the water (or around) an unforgettable experience. Go ahead and launch yourself off the dock and shout, ‘CANNONBALL’! This is the perfect place to rest and rejuvenate, and I know you’ll enjoy ‘The Cozy Lake House Cottage’ as much as I have! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Shorewalk Vacation Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-Shorewalk-Vacation-Villas.h13316.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Palm-Beach.h20271.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information) > > [Ocean Walk Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Ocean-Walk.h598390.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Cocoa Beach Oceanfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-La-Quinta-Inn-Suites-By-Wyndham-Cocoa-Beach-Oceanfront.h894002.Hotel-Information) > > [Edgewater Beach and Golf Resort by Southern Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Edgewater-Beach-And-Golf-Resort-By-Resort-Collection.h803238.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Cocoa Beach - Port Canaveral](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-Best-Western-Cocoa-Beach-Hotel-Suites.h18029.Hotel-Information) > > [PGA National Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Gardens-Hotels-PGA-National-Resort-And-Spa.h10355.Hotel-Information) > > [Solterra Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Solterra-Resort.h18526478.Hotel-Information) > > [Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Port Canaveral, FL](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Canaveral-Hotels-Country-Inn-Suites-By-Radisson.h1489240.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Naples-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Coconut-Point-Resort-Spa.h792025.Hotel-Information) > > [Days Inn by Wyndham Cocoa Beach Port Canaveral](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Cocoa-Beach-Port-Canaveral.h15605.Hotel-Information) > > [Baker's Cay Resort Key Largo, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Key-Largo-Hotels-Bakers-Cay-Resort-Key-Largo.h14042.Hotel-Information) > > [The Resort at Longboat Key Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-The-Resort-At-Longboat-Key-Club.h27542.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Resort at the Port](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Canaveral-Hotels-Radisson-Resort-At-The-Port.h4692.Hotel-Information) > > [Tranquility Bay Beachfront Hotel and Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Tranquility-Bay-Beachfront-Hotel-And-Resort.h117099.Hotel-Information) > > [Bahama House](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-Bahama-House.h893658.Hotel-Information) > > [Vacation Village at Weston, Fort Lauderdale](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-Vacation-Village-At-Weston.h1062880.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Beach House, Key West](https://www.expedia.ca/Key-West-Hotels-Hyatt-Vacation-Club-At-Beach-House.h857962.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club in Sandestin Golf & Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Miramar-Beach-Hotels-Embarc-Sandestin.h1054729.Hotel-Information) > > [Pink Shell Beach Resort and Marina](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Myers-Hotels-Pink-Shell-Beach-Resort-And-Marina.h15603.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Cocoa Beach Oceanfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-Hilton-Cocoa-Beach-Oceanfront.h12537.Hotel-Information) > > [Fiesta Key RV Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Long-Key-Hotels-Fiesta-Key-RV-Resort.h4578886.Hotel-Information) > > [Margaritaville Beach House Key West](https://www.expedia.ca/Key-West-Hotels-Margaritaville-Beach-House-Key-West.h48713884.Hotel-Information) > > [Palm Beach Marriott Singer Island Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Singer-Island-Hotels-Palm-Beach-Marriott-Singer-Island-Beach-Resort-Spa.h449170.Hotel-Information) > > [The Breakers Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Breakers-Palm-Beach.h8479.Hotel-Information) > > [Beachside Hotel & Suites Cocoa Beach - Port Canaveral](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-Beachside-Hotel-Suites.h4995.Hotel-Information) > > [The Colony Hotel Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-Colony-Hotel-Palm-Beach.h8074.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Cocoa Beach Oceanfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Cocoa-Beach-Oceanfront.h4398.Hotel-Information)
