We had such a wonderful time at Emerson Cottage! The cottage is absolutely adorable. The decor has special touches everywhere you look. The bed is extremely comfy and the place is spotless! The fire pit was convenient and just perfect for a late October evening.
Downtown Cambridge is very cute, little shops and restaurants to explore. We also traveled into Madison for dinner which was only 30 minutes away.
Emerson Cottage is definitely one of our new favorite places to get away and relax!
We loved the quaint and cozy Emerson Cottage! It was the perfect weekend getaway for my husband, our 13 year who both LOVE TO FISH, and me. They must've caught 20 fish, and I even caught a couple. The cottage is updated, warm and inviting with a master bedroom and couch sleeper with an inflatable mattress in the living room. We cooked the entire time, visit some cute shops in the town of Cambridge, bought vegetables and fruit from the local stand in town and grilled out both nights. The lake was a short 'walk in the park' literally, and everyone was very friendly. I'm a Realtor and the WIFI worked great for me to get my calls and online work done. It took us less than two hours from our house in the northwest burbs of Chicago and was lovely! Highly recommend!!!
Very clean and updated. It was a great place for our family of 4 to stay for the weekend!
