Built in the early 1940s just after Sportsman’s Lake was created, this space was once a summer house for roller rink workers, later served as a staff cabin, and after years of sitting quiet, it’s been brought back to life for short stays, camps, and retreats. Tucked right beside the lake, Butternut offers peaceful views from its private deck and a cozy, rustic feel inside. It features a king bed, futon, kitchenette (microwave, mini fridge, coffee maker, and hot plate), AC and a private bathroom with a hot shower. Your stay supports more than just a weekend getaway—rental proceeds help fund programs for youth and families to experience nature, community, and rest here at Pilgrim Heights. ## Property amenities ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchenette - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Microwave - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Shower - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - One pet total (up to 50 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Things to do - Kayak ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - At least 10% of profits reinvested in community and sustainability ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 3:00 PM Minimum check-in age: 18 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Pets Pets allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees 1 total (up to 50 lbs per pet) ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know Extra-person charges may apply and vary depending on property policy Government-issued photo identification and a credit card, debit card, or cash deposit may be required at check-in for incidental charges Special requests are subject to availability upon check-in and may incur additional charges; special requests cannot be guaranteed Onsite parties or group events are strictly prohibited Host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector with you on the trip Host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property This property is managed through our partner, Vrbo.

Aug 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### What a fun time a the lake!!! Our family enjoyed our stay so much the kids asked when we are going again on the way home. We made wonderful memories as a family while we fished, kayaked, paddle boated, canoed, and explored nature. So nice that life jackets, kayaks, canoes and paddle boat were available to use with our stay. Our family loved all the water fun! We enjoyed bring our dog along too since she is an important part of our family. Pilgrim Heights is so close to our home that we plan on going many more times! The staff were so friendly and helpful. ##### Sunnie M.
