About this cottage rental

What a great place for the avid angler or the family looking for a quiet get away. This fully restored cottage has a large, private yard perfect for relaxing and features 200+ ft of frontage on Flowage lake, which is famous for it's pike and bass fishing. Also included is frontage on the West Branch of the Rifle River for some of the best trout fishing in the state. A canoe and 3 kayaks are available for guest's use at no charge. When not enjoying the lake and river, you can entertain yourself with the pool table, Foosball table or other games included in the walk out basement. Other amenities include a lake side deck, a river side patio with outdoor fireplace, BBQ grill, washer and dryer, 3 televisions, and central air conditioning.

The property was clean, well maintained and as advertised. The area is quiet with little traffic and the town of West Branch is very quaint! We enjoyed the kayaks and canoe very much! Fishing was slow at first but we switched the bait up and caught carp, perch, rock bass and blue gill, sadly no trout :( but it was still fun. The owner was quick to respond to questions before and during our stay. We wouldn't hesitate to book this property again!

We had a wonderful time at the cabin. Caught a lot of fish, had some amazing day trips, and had so much space for our family and dog. The shower on the main floor should have its own highlights on the listing, trust me when I say it's lovely!I would highly recommend staying here for the lovely cabin, but also the ability to go out the front to fish, kayak, paddleboard, swim or the back to catch an array of fish in the dam.

Over all had good time very relaxing, House is very nice and nice game room in basement. The terrain along bank for fishing is uneven and rocky. If you have a bad back like mine make sure you have back brace. A lot of geegse visit this property watch where you step, I would suggest a little peer be installed for fishing and launching of canoe. Enjoy

loved the set up; the upstairs bedroom was like it's own on suite. I would change your note on the amentities; address that there is no boat launch on the lake; and you can bring a carry down boat. There are a couple of areas in the lake that are very shallow and can ground your boat on; one is near the shore by a home on the point between the small island and the shore on the left side. The second is in the cove farther down where there are two homes; one is brown the other is gray; just mention you will have to get in that area by staying close to those homes. It might be worth while to set a mooring post to on the shore to tie boats up to; that would prevent boats from drifting off. I can tell you that you have a lot of legal sized bass in the lake because they were spawning, and multiple ones were jumping out of the water. Great to watch, but it made it tough to fish; not your fault. I don't know if the batteries in the dartboard were getting weak; it would come on, but not keep score. Could be I couldn't figure it out. If its working, may need to post instructions on using. Big thumbs up to the bowling alley in town; we went there one night and got a bundle to bowl and mini golf; good entertainment. There was not a easy hole on that course; the staff there were great. I would mention you have a dvd/vcr combo and tell people to bring their own movies, as I did not see a collection. The cottonwood can be problem for allergy sufferers. Worth mentioning.
