Nettles Nest Country Inn
-
The cabin as viewed from across the lake. The gazebo to the right is set up for grilling out.
Queen-size bed with pillowtop mattress and high-quality linens. The cabin interior is spacious yet cozy.
The rustically decorated cabin provides sleeping accomodations for 4-6 people, a kitchenette, bistro dining table, and private bathroom.
The private cabin sits atop a woodsy hill overlooking the lake, providing a serene, natural setting.
A side door on the cabin exits out onto this deck overlooking the lake. It's the perfect place to enjoy a morning cup of coffee in the lounge chairs or a sunset meal at the table.
Tables, chairs, and a porch swing are provided under the pavilion, and guests are welcome to fish from the wooden dock.
The cabin sits on the edge of a private, 5-acre spring-fed lake.
This is the view from the left side of the cabin looking down towards the pavilion and fishing dock. There are many unique brick patios, steps, and walls on the property.
This photo shows the road across the dam at the end of the lake. There are many nature trails and dirt roads winding through the woods surrounding the cabin. They are great for walking, running, biking, or wildlife viewing.
A paddleboat is available for guests to enjoy some time on the water.

I loved staying at Nettles Nest. I would definitely go back. It was a great place to stop over for the night and I would consider taking an extended family vacation there. As soon as we got there the kids took off and explored the lake and woods. After the car trip, that was definitely worth it. The room was clean, cozy and comfortable. We have 3 kids, but we didn't feel crowded. I'd much rather stay at a BnB like this than go to a hotel. It is relaxing to have so much space to yourself. Gwen was a great host. She helped us to get settled in even though it was after 11pm when we arrived. I loved how the fridge was stocked with drinks and snacks for us. Overall, it felt like home.

Terrific! Absolutely loved the peace and quiet. We felt so secure facing the lake with the woods at our back. We enjoyed the trails and adventure of geochaching between rounds of Horseshoes and paddleboating. Thank you Gwen for the perfect breakfast of fruits and cinnamon rolls & for stocking the fridge with drinks, as well as setting us up with popcorn for movie night! You rock, We loved it. Everyone should 'get away' to Redwater.
