Designed with affordability in mind, this intimate and cozy, compact yet well equipped, self contained waterfront cabin has just about everything you will need for a weekend away from city life. Located towards the east end of Palmerston Lake, in a small bay-like setting, it is perfect for a couple who enjoys the out of doors and just need a place to lay their heads down at night. Being a bachelor/motel style/ efficiency unit, the couch serves as your double sofa bed for sleeping at night.

A well stocked kitchenette including a large toaster oven, microwave, 2 burner hotplate, fridge, sink with H/C water, all dishes and cutlery, pots and pans, toaster, kettle, tea pot etc. makes meal preparation convenient.

All blankets and pillows are provided; please bring your own sheets, pillow cases and towels. All windows and doors are screened offering a breeze from the lake. The guesthouse is heated with electric heat throughout. An intimate front yard with picnic table bordering the lake, a sundeck atop a boathouse and an adequately sized screened porch provides comfort and coziness after a fun filled day in this still relatively quiet area in The Land O'Lakes.

Your hosts reside year round on 150 ft. of waterfront property on Palmerston Lake, and share their piece of paradise with the guests of The Guesthouse and The Pioneer cottages.We are always available for assistance and offer our guests the use of our home telephone as there is no cell phone service in this area; although a hike to the top of the “Lookout”offers some reception and a breathtaking panoramic view of both Palmerston Lake and Canonto Lake.

Parking is provided above lake level behind the cottages, with access to the Guesthouse via a common stairwell, or by water. The boat launch is a short distance away. We are proud to offer smoke/pet free accommodations. This is just a taste of what outdoor country life in The Land O' Lakes is all about.
