Cottage holiday rentals in Hamilton Lake

Gorgeous spot for relaxing. Always appreciate places that allow pets. Clean, comfortable and relaxing. Beautiful view of lake.

The cottage was beautiful, and though there was a little bit of miscommunication, Tim and Kate went above and beyond to come up with a solution for us! We would definitely consider staying again when it's warmer out!

Had a fantastic family vacation at Diamond Lake. The cottage was perfect - cozy, clean, and VERY well stocked. Check in before you go to the grocery store because you won’t need anything other than food and drinks - all other supplies are provided. The beds were comfortable. Plenty of board games for rainy days. And the front porch and yard allowed for some family fun in the evenings after being on the beach on sunny days. Thank you for hosting - - we will be back next summer!

One of the best locations we’ve stayed in! Beautiful, clean, and new.

Very clean, peaceful, beautiful place. A bit small for our family of 6, but perfect for a short stay, landing place if planning to be out a lot, or for a smaller family. Nice back yard area and hot tub. Kayaks were a wonderful treat. We saw a muskrat, turtles, and other wildlife.

Our family of 5 had a great stay at Gary’s place. The lake, the pontoon, paddle boards and pedal boat were used daily. It is private and quiet. There are plenty of life vests and even some large inner tubes you can take out on the water. The floating dock and lily pad were covered in goose poop while we were there so we didn’t use them. The house was comfortable and had more amenities than most air BNBs we’ve stayed at. Our favorite spot (besides being on the water) was drinking coffee and reading on the covered porch! Would recommend to families!!

Our stay at this Airbnb was nothing short of incredible. The hosts went above and beyond to support our family during one of the most exciting and emotional times in our lives—the arrival of our child through adoption. With so many unknowns in our journey, they moved mountains to accommodate us, ensuring we had a beautiful, comfortable, and relaxing place to stay, even with our shifting timelines and unique requests. The home itself is absolutely stunning—everything is brand new, the beds are incredibly comfortable, and the hot tub was such a treat. From the thoughtful design to the cozy atmosphere, every detail made our stay feel effortless and peaceful. We are already dreaming of returning in the summer to soak in the lake vibes and energy of Nettle Lake. We are beyond grateful for this experience and for the kindness and generosity of our hosts. If you're looking for a five-star stay with truly exceptional hospitality, this is the place! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

We had a great stay! Our plan was to lie low for a long weekend and this was the perfect place to do that. The kitchen was fully stocked, hot tub was amazing and the lake was so peaceful. Bonus that my dog was able to join us too!

What a great stay! Very clean and well-appointed. It was a very comfortable stay. I would definitely stay here again!

Brad and Deb are real pros. They really know how to set up the place to make it inviting and comfortable. It’s rare to run across hosts who handle the details. But these folks do. We can’t wait to get back here.

It was everything we needed for a weekend getaway! The sunrises and sunsets were so beautiful and peaceful. We would absolutely return again anytime we need a getaway to relax. Thank you Christine!!!

Such a beautiful peaceful place. Friendly neighbors, comfortable accommodations, and a great host.

Beautiful sunsets in the evenings! The house was perfect! No issues at all! Phillip was great at communicating! The neighbors were so friendly!!

Wonderful stay. The house was well stocked and clean, and the beds were comfortable. The lot is very large with plenty of space for yard games and activities. Would 100% look for availability here, if we were staying in the area in the future.

Was a great stay and perfect for a family weekend at Trine University. Make sure to read the instructions ahead of time to know all the right items to bring.

We had such a phenomenal time at the cottage. The family that owns the place is incredibly kind and welcoming. Truly made us feel at home and it’s an incredible location for a small get away. We’re very appreciative of the hospitality and opening their home

Cozy, and the lake is beautiful! We really enjoyed everything about our visit.

Great little place near the lake! Very clean and I loved the modern decor; there is a lot of attention to detail. Great kitchen and we appreciated the Keurig coffee and complimentary bottle of wine. Beds were comfortable, linens were fresh!

Had an amazing stay at this airbnb! The place was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. Samantha was super friendly and responsive. Perfect for long of short term stays. I highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to visit the area.

We had a party of 4 and our medium sized dog. The home was clean, decorated beautifully and they did a great job utilizing the space. We hope to get back again for another trip.

This property is amazing! I can tell you that one year ago, we visited here, and the place has not changed a bit. In fact, there were some improvements! Not that it needed any! Most other rentals kinda slowly go downhill. I hope very much that it remains on Airbnb! Do not miss this perfectly located, very comfortable house! I would reserve fast if you have your dates! Another great thing here is the boat rental is basically across the street! But don't be fooled, it is a very quiet location.

We were in Hillsdale for work and it was so nice to come home to this quiet cabin by the lake. We were able to cook our own meals and relax with the beautiful sunsets most evenings. Very much appreciate finding such a beautiful place that's also pet friendly. The neighborhood felt safe and the neighbors were all very friendly. The kitchen is very well-equipped. Beds are comfortable with individual AC units in each room. Akrum was very responsive to messages and access was very easy. We will definitely stay here again if we have the opportunity.

Catfish Cottage was more than advertised because of the beautiful outdoor area with lake access. We immediately requested two additional nights after arrival and were thrilled to be able to book them. The two decks with ample seating plus the lower patio in the yard provided so much space to enjoy. We used the charcoal grill and outdoor fire pit. The cottage is very comfortable for four adults and we liked having the separation of upstairs and downstairs bedrooms. The beds are comfortable with plenty of extra blankets provided. The hosts who live next door were nice enough to come say hello on our last day. We enjoyed hearing about the history of their property and how Catfish Cottage came to be! Recommendations for the area: We rented a pontoon boat for the whole day which was located just down the road and already in the water. Definitely recommend the Back Roads Tavern located one mile from the cottage for eating out option.

this place was very quaint. very clean. Lake was snowy and frozen but beautiful! the indoor porch my favorite! easy check in and easy check out instructions, owner extremely nice. couldn't ask for a better stay! shipshewana only 15 mins away, a MUST SEE. Will be back when weather is better! Thank you for a great stay!
