This warm welcoming home is located on George's Pond in Franklin. There are 4 separate bedrooms, upstairs there is a large master bedroom with a king size bed, reading area and cable tv, another bedroom with 2 twin beds and a 3rd bedroom with a queen bed. Down stairs there is a fully equiped kitchen with a breakfast nook, a living room with cable tv/dvd/vhs and dining area,a full bath and another bedroom with a double bed. There is a large wrap around deck facing the lake and another small deck off the kitchen. We have FREE WiFi ( Internet Access ).The house sits on 2 lots so you also have a large yard. There is another cottage on the left but there are trees separating the properties and another one on the right that is empty 51 weeks of the year, so you have plenty of privacy. You have a private beach with a dock, and there is a public beach and boat launch within easy walking distance of the house. You have a wonderful view of the lake and Cadillac "mountain" from the deck, the master bedroom and the down stairs bedroom. Sit on the deck with your first cup of coffe and watch the morning mist rise off the lake, listen to the resident loons call to each other and plan your day. The swimming is fun and fishing great so bring your "toys" and enjoy the lake. We have a canoe that you can use and there is a rental place just a few miles from the cottage where you can rent kayaks and more canoes. In the evening sit by the fire pit and toast marshmelows, have a sing-a-long or just enjoy the peace and quiet. Have young chidren? There is a large yard for them to play in, "woods" (some trees on the property) for them to explore, ducks to feed, fish to catch and beach toys to play with. All this without even leaving the cottage!
There is a phone with free nationwide calling and cable tv.
