About this property
Newly renovated w/Bar & Firepit on Full-Rec 5 Lake chain- Pet Friendly! Pontoon
You do NOT have to be way up north to feel like you are. Happy "OURS" Cottage is a year-round 3 bedroom, 2 full bath lake home located on a full recreation 5-lake chain on Morris Lake in Mt Morris, WI. Includes a 4-car tandem garage, a paddle boat, a single kayak, a double kayak, and boat dock with bench. (Separate rental fee for the Pontoon) Enjoy the beautiful summer days on the lake soaking up the sun, boating, skiing, fishing, tubing and making memories of a lifetime with your family. There is an amazing swimming beach a short 5 minute boat ride away that is crystal clear and sandy. This is also the lake that tubing and skiing is allowed. Pack a cooler with beverages and snacks and spend the day tied up to the shore (to the right of the swimming beach) enjoying the lake and sunshine. Sunset pontoon cruises are also a must! The fishing is great right off the dock and boaters fish in front of our cottage all year long. We provide yard games such as bag toss, ladder toss, giant jenga, and bocce ball for your use. The 24' Bennington Pontoon with new 90HP Mercury engine is available for rent Mid April through mid October. 3-7 night pontoon rentals will be available depending on your stay. This is a separate fee from the cottage rental and is NOT included in the cottage pricing. Please email us for pontoon pricing and also let us know when you book the cottage if you are also interested in renting the pontoon. This 4 season home offers winter activities also! Nordic Mountain is only 2 miles down the road if you love to snow ski or snowboard. There is also a tubing hill with lifts next to the ski hill. Maybe you want to snowmobile or ATV on the many trails around the area. And of course... the ice fishing is great right outside our door! You will not want to leave our recently added 4 season room (sunroom) with it's spectacular views of the lake and sunsets. The red leather sectional sofa in the sunroom is very comfy for that unexpected guest. The kitchen was completely renovated in December of 2025.

Extremely comfortable home with many extra touches which made the stay that much more cozy. Gracious hosts, very generous and very accommodating. We will be back!
We really enjoyed our stay. The outdoor area was great. We spent a lot of time on the patio, in the pontoon and the sunroom. The house had everything we needed. Definitely will come again!
Beautiful property. House was stocked with everything you need. Tami and tom were amazing hosts. Quick to answer any questions you might have. Loved the patio and fire pit. Bar room came in handy during a rainy night. Would definitely book again.
The house was fantastic! Great bedroom/living room layout which made the stay very enjoyable. The view to the lake couldn't be beat, and the back bar in the garage was super cool. The pontoon boat (separate rental) was also a very nice add and made getting around the lake easy. Owner communication was prompt.
Vacation with Grandparents and grandkids. The house was clean and right on the lake. The amenities were everything we expected and more. Renting the boat was the best decision. Tom and Tami were kind and informative. Already planning next years stay.
We had a great time on the lake. The firepit and patio area were beautiful. The little bar area off the garage was fun and gave us a place to hang during some rain. Having access to kayaks, a pedalboat, and the pontoon just added to the water experience. The kids loved playing on the lilypad floatie in the lake.
The house was wonderfully clean and perfectly suited to our needs. The home had everything you would need. We rented the boat along with the property and it was the best decision. We spent all day on the boat. The outdoor living space was also fantastic. Lots of places to sit and relax. Tami and Tom were excellent hosts, communicative and friendly.
We had an amazing time, perfect for a family getaway. The house was adorable with plenty of space for everyone. They had EVERYTHING you could possibly need there; we brought way too much lol. The pontoon rental is a must, especially at sunset, sooo beautiful. Fishing was great, literally the moment you cast you have a good size blue gill on your line! Tom and Tami are just wonderful people and so accommodating. We will definitely be returning every summer!
We loved our week-long stay at this property for so many reasons. Beautiful lake views and easy lake access with a nice, sturdy pier and a great pontoon have to be top of the list, followed by the wonderful front room, where we spent 80% of our time. The fire pit was very comfortable with great seating, and the fire wood supply was plentiful. The kitchen is large and welcoming, perfect for cooking meals and playing games. So well stocked!! They have several refrigerators around the property for keeping food & drinks cool during hot summer days. Everything was so clean and comfortable. Tom & Tami are excellent hosts, and every need was met. We can’t wait to return!
Our stay was amazing! The house and property were beautiful and clean and we had everything we needed right there! We also rented the pontoon which was convenient and they had more floaties and games than we could want/need! Tami was a very gracious and responsive host. We will be back! The only thing we got mixed up on was that we thought we had sand off the property so swimming would be easier from the dock. The beach is on a different lake. No biggie tho!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely cottage! The house was well equipped, and the decor was cute and cozy. It was so nice to be able to rent the on-site pontoon boat. We enjoyed tubing, visiting the public beach and several sunset cruises. The gardens and abundant seating made the outdoor living space an extension of the house. The kids enjoyed the "playhouse", aka the man cave! The fishermen in our group were happy with the fish they caught (and released). Our annual family vacation had a smaller group than usual this year (8 people vs 12), but if we ever have a smaller group again, I would not hesitate to rent this home again. Wonderful experience! Thank you Tom and Tami for sharing your home!
Had a great time at the property. Owners were great to work with and everything was as advertised with many amenities available. Check in and out process was easy.
We spent 3 days here and it was a fun stay on the water,. Our boys are 6 and 9 and they had a ton of fun in the water and at the nearby beach. At night, the grown ups enjoyed sitting by the fire. The place was well-stocked, we had everything we needed. Highly recommend!
Beautiful property! Owners were very welcoming and explained everything very well. Lake was beautiful! Although we couldn’t swim right off the dock there were still areas to swim. Loved the coffee shop and pub which were accessible by pontoon. Also enjoyed using the paddle boat and kayaks. Will definitely book again!
We had a great time with our family of three teenagers on the lake. We really enjoyed boating, kayaking and all the water toys. The adults enjoyed the lake view off the patio and the teens enjoyed the game room. There was plenty of space for everyone.
Really enjoyed this winter retreat. Spent some time visiting the cute shops downtown, hiking and snow tubing. The room looking over the lake with large sectional was perfect for hanging out and watching movies as a group.
We truly enjoyed this little piece of heaven. The property is very well maintained and had everything we expected. We also rented the pontoon which worked out great.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage. We loved the view of the lake from inside the house. The deck and fire pit area were wonderful. The cottage was perfect for our family getting together.
