About this cottage rental

Escape to Mallard Cottage, a private 2-BR waterfront retreat on Lookout Shoals Lake. This newly remodeled, pet-friendly home offers breathtaking views, a full deck, and a private dock. Perfect for a relaxing getaway for couples or small families. Enjoy the open-plan living space and fenced yard in a quiet, serene cove.

We respect our guests' privacy and aim to provide a peaceful retreat. We will not be on the property during your stay, but we are readily available via phone or the messaging app should you have any questions or need assistance.

The neighborhood is a short peninsula that extends into Lookout Shoals Lake, Ridge St. dead ends not far past Mallard Cottage.
The area is quiet with friendly neighbors. If you have to park outside the driveway please do not block the boat ramp in the vacant neighboring lot, it is used heavily by locals.

Guests will have private and exclusive access to the entire cottage and its grounds. This includes the 2-bedroom house, the full upper deck, the covered lower patio, the entire fenced yard, and the private dock with a boat slip. Entry is seamless with a keyless keypad, allowing for flexible self-check-in.

Our cottage is a charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath bungalow, freshly remodeled to create a space that is open, fresh, and welcoming. The home is raised on piers, providing an elevated and special view of the lake that is as beautiful in the morning as it is in the evening.

Inside, the open-plan living area features two large glass doors, offering a full, uninterrupted waterfront view from almost anywhere in the cottage.

Key Features:
* Open-plan living area with stunning lake views.
* Amazing full deck, the perfect spot to savor your morning coffee or watch the sunset over the water.
* Downstairs covered patio with comfortable seating and a BBQ grill for cookouts.
* The entire yard is fenced, so your kids and furry friends can safely roam and play.

Perfect! Love all the touches for our pups. Obviously has had upgrades to the property - it's really nice! Dock was in excellent shape, views were spectacular! Communication was very good - had all the info we need for a smooth check in and check out process.

Our stay at Mallard Cottage was peaceful and relaxing! The house was clean, well-stocked with updated appliances, comfortable, and private considering it’s not quite boating season. We didn’t bring a pet but noticed the dog toys and treats available to guests! We enjoyed sitting on the porch and drinking coffee while watching the waterfowl do their morning routines. I would recommend staying here and I would visit again if the opportunity came!

Very beautiful home! Very cozy, comfortable & quiet. Would definitely recommend! They even had doggy toys and bowls for the doggies!

This was our 2nd stay here. Lovely property, impeccably clean, and well appointed. Our pups absolutely love the large, securely-fenced yard. The owners make our fur-family feel right at home with toys, snacks, and dog bowls!
