Stunning sunsets over Hatch Lake

This is a beautiful cottage on the eastern shore of Hatch Lake. Spectacular view of the lake from a big deck only yards away from the water. The cottage itself is cute, clean, and spacious, a big open room and two bedrooms each with a nice queen bed. My husband and I had business to attend to in Waupaca and in Stevens Point, both are a pleasant drive from Iola. Iola is a lovely little town with groceries, bars and restaurants. Try the on that boasts its pies. We loved coming "home" to this cottage to watch the sun set over the lake. One could happily spend the whole day there swimming and kayaking.

Last minute getaway

We were looking for something on a lake with great fishing just to relax. This property was perfect. Nothing luxurious, big or fancy. Just a place to relax and enjoy great weather. The deck is great, kayaks and floatation raft were great.
