Location is key for the perfect waterfront cottage. With 100 feet of waterfront in a protected cove, this Otis Reservoir cottage is a rare find! If the main lake is busy you can enjoy this quiet cove to swim, fish or simply float on a raft with a cold drink. Come and treat yourself to the best of both worlds. The seller/builder/contractor has added insight for this beautiful waterfront. Please see the plans in the photo's and documents for a total remodel providing all the room for family and friends with the best presentation to the lake!
