It was amazing, the venue was all we wanted! My daughter said she felt like a princess and was able to share a great weekend with the wedding party. All of whom were close friends and relatives. The Rose cottage along with the Magnolia House allowed us to provide all the wedding party a place to stay, so we could celebrate and not worry about ppl driving home. For us safety/being responsible host to the wedding party was 1st on our minds. The guys brought their boats up and fished the morning of the wedding. The girls got ready together in the bridal Suite of the Magnolia House! We the parents used the Rose Cottage, we brought our big grill and my husband friends prepared the meat for the reception. So many possibilities with this house along with the Magnolia House. The Rose Cottage was well decorated and very clean. Like we were the first to ever stay there. I could go on and on, but to sum it up. Simply Amazing!

The property was perfect for our needs. The inside was extremely nice and appeared to be recently renovated. Great wifi and phone coverage. Well stocked with cooking and cleaning supplies. Towels were well stocked. Property was beautiful with several different outside gathering areas and fire pits. The boat dock was unaccessible for launching our boats due to the low water level of the lake so we had to launch several miles away and then boat back to the property. We used the existing boat docks fine with ladders down to our boats. Highly recommend this property and will try to use again in the near future.

House was a perfect family getaway for our family of five. It was clean, organized, and beautifully decorated. We enjoyed the outdoor seating areas in the evenings. The owners have thought of everything from the throw blankets that helped make us feel cozy, to the stocked kitchen where we could cook our own meals. They even provided the sticks for roasting marshmallows. Our only complaint; construction noice started at 8am every morning and for this late to bed late to rise family that was a little irritating. We would definitely come back to this little perfect cottage. Also, curious to see what they are building. Thanks for the fun memories!

The location is beautiful. Just off the lake with an amazing view. Plenty of room on property for both parties to stay. Local vendors had some amazing people. The staff was great all thought the stay.

Our group of seven college friends from the 1970’s, had a wonderful, relaxing stay at Rose Cottage!

We used this property for our wedding and turned it into a weekend long event. This place could not have been more perfect for a fall wedding. The views were incredible, the temperature was just right, the magnolias gave us amazing lighting for photos and between the two properties on the lot, there was plenty of space for all of our guests to feel comfortable and enjoy their stay. Any of our needs for the actual wedding itself were responded to quickly and handled right away. I have no complaints of any kind and anyone lucky enough to book this place for their wedding is getting a dream venue for a steal. Will absolutely be coming back.

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our weekend at Rose Cottage! Property was beautiful, clean and stocked better than any place I think I have ever stayed- they have thought of everything! We especially enjoyed nights around the firepit, catching the sunset from the dock & the seeing sunrise on the lake in the provided kayaks! Communication with the owners was fabulous, entire process was seamless!

We got married with 30 of our family at the Magnolia House and it was the best week of our lives. The house was AMAZING and PERFECT and BEAUTIFUL in every way. I don't even know where to begin. There were 32 of us, yet there were so many beds, everyone got a comfy place to sleep. The outside area with the covered pergola allowed us to hang out in the fresh air even during rain and we were dry and comfy. And the kitchen... we only catered two nights, so we had to feed all 32 of us for the full week, and the kitchen was large and well equipped. There was an extra fridge and freezer in the garage just a few steps away. We also had access to extra furniture, including white table linens, chairs, tables, and all sorts of decor (little lanterns, too!) that made the wedding so special. There is now a hot tub, which the kids loved. Also, the sand volleyball court. And the dock on the lake and the boat! The place comes with a boat (extra charge, but the boat is RIGHT THERE for you at your own dock). The boat was really the main hit, and we took it out every single day. Finally, Dave and Ann responded to every text and also made sure an additional person was on standby in case we needed anything; so, we had at least two contacts. On day one, we realized we forgot coffee and they brought us some within minutes. Perfection! We booked the adjacent Rose Cottage as well for four extra bedrooms, three baths, and another full kitchen. We celebrated two birthdays there towards the end of our trip and all 32 of us fit just fine in the living room/kitchen area for the party. It's just a few steps from the main house! We cannot say enough about how wonderful Magnolia House and the Rose Cottage were. If you are considering a gathering of family and/or friends for a celebration or just a big vacation, go to this place. You will never forget it!

We rented this home along with the Magnolia House for a family reunion. One of the best rental experiences with both the properties and with the owners! Super clean, fully stocked with everything you could possibly need, and excellent communication with the owners! Couldn’t have been more pleased with this rental and would highly recommend to anyone!

The cottage was so cute and loaded with everything you can possibly need. Questions were responded to super quickly and management was very friendly and kind. I would definitely stay here again if we are ever back in the area. Great amenities too. Thank you for such a lovely place.

The wedding was perfect even with the rain pouring down on us! Dave recently installed some sheeting over the patio to cover it and it definitely gave us an option for our wedding while it rained! Thanks Dave!!

Our family, friends and wedding party stayed at Rose Cottage for the wedding weekend we hosted at The Magnolia House. That property is not included in this review and is equally as gorgeous as this one! Dave & crew did an awesome job. The cottage was recently renovated with top-notch furnishings. Nothing was overlooked and the house was immaculate.. Everything we could have possibly needed was provided. From the moment we made the reservation to the minute we checked out, Destinie was on hand & available to answer every question. She was amazing. You will not find a better home to rent for your family if you want to be on the lake than this one. Thank you for your help Destinie Thank you Dave & Ann for an amazing experience

Property just as described, even better!!!The lake was flooded first two days, but last day was perfect. Grounds crew was very helpful.Can’t wait to come back next year.

Property is unbelievable. We will definitely be visiting again!!

Fantastic to be able to stay in cottage on property of main house during wedding weekend. Room for everyone and no driving! Excellent accommodations

We had a wedding at the veue and stayed in the house, all was great and would encourage everyone to go

We had a great time over New Year eve. The property was very well kept and designed. We found all we needed to spend 4 fun days.

We had a great time! Plenty of room for our family. Property had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Loved the decor and layout of the house. Host was very accessible, kind and helpful. We would definitely return for another visit!

Rose cottage overlooks a beautiful wedding venue and the lake. We got to watch a wedding happen and had s’mores at the firepit by the lake. The kids went zip lining at DeSota Park. Great family getaway and everything you need is there in a beautifully decorated and very peaceful setting.

We stayed the property just before Thanks giving. There were no one except our family. The property was very clean and it was very close to the lake. As it was shown in the list, the sunset was beautiful.

Excellent! The owner was very accommodating and nice. Beautiful property, very well maintained. Will stay here again!

The Rosewood Cottage was the perfect choice for our family. We enjoyed the beautiful scenery, gas fire pit, kayaks & more! Everything you could imagine was provided to prepare our Thanksgiving Feast! The hosts are wonderful! Our family had such a great time together not one of us wanted to leave! We hope to stay here again.

The place was immaculate. The owner's fantastic! Communication was outstanding. The property is up on the hill away from the lake, not directly next to it.

Exceptional The property was more than anticipated. It was both spacious and very functional. The amenities put it over the top

This property became a favorite for us. Everything was picture perfect, but oh so inviting. The extras that the owners provided (little containers in the bathroom with q-tips and cotton balls, extra blankets to cuddle up by the fire, and board games) made you feel as if you were visiting a family member that was happy to have you. The cleanliness and freshness made us sad to leave. This cottage is perfect for any group of people, from 2-12. There is enough space to be comfortable but cozy. This was the perfect weekend getaway place. I am certain this trip is not going to be our only trip to this location. Thank you for a perfect home away from home feeling!!!
