Holiday rentals in Hicksville

LOVED it! Was there on a business trip in late winter, and wished it was for pleasure, and in a warmer month, so I could enjoy the lake it sits on, and get to relax while there. However, I was overwhelmed with prep for television and radio appearances and a live cooking show, so I only had the pleasure of using the AWESOME soaking tub to de-stress from super long hectic days, sleeping very well in oh-so-comfy bedding, and tossing together breakfast in a charming kitchen stocked with basics, as well as a well-stocked coffee bar. I thought the fresh creamer in the fridge was a nice touch, and I loved sitting at the kitchen table enjoying my coffee and the beautiful lake view. I hope to return some day -under less stressful circumstances- so I can get to enjoy all its outdoor amenities in warmer weather, too. I also want to mention that I felt very safe staying there alone (owners live next door) and the place is so cozy I felt like I was at home throughout my entire 3-day stay.

We very much enjoyed our stay. Easy access to water. We set out to have a relaxing weekend. This home offered plenty of areas to relax. Cottonwood Cottage was very warm and inviting and we hope to make it back.

This place was amazing. The views are spectacular. We will be back.

Family Traditions is way more beautiful than the pictures!!! Don was so responsive and accomodating. We had an absolute fabulous stay at this getaway! We highly recommend this spot for a friend/family/couple's getaway! You can't ask for anything better ~ it was clean, well stocked, plenty of room for all, perfect location, we can't wait to go back!!! Thank you, Don!!!

Peaceful cottage on Long Lake. Our family shared quality time on Labor Day weekend. Had a peaceful relaxing time. Had a campfire, played in the water. Loved the screened in porch and deck looking over the lake!

This was our third year staying at Chris’s cottage. The cottage was spotless as always, equipped with snacks, water, plenty of towels and amenities. The cottage is on Fish Lake, beautiful and peaceful but also fun to watch all of the water activities and wildlife. The weather was perfect. The mark of a fantastic place and location is never having to turn on the TV to pass the time. We will be back next year if it’s available! Thank you, Chris!

A short getaway for us and the cottage was the perfect setting! Everything was immaculate and had all the amenities of home! Town was near by for restaurants or any needs and right near the lake. Lots of exploring nearby or within an hour or two drive. We’d stay there again! Thanks, James!

This is a cute little cottage with a beautiful view of the lake. I will definitely be back!

Great place to stay for our trip down to Colon to attend a dinner at Farrand Hall. Loved looking out at the lake- even spotted a bald eagle!
