The Hilltop Hideaway on Little Long Lake | Cottage in Fremont
2 Bedroom Cottage in Fremont
This is a small, cozy cottage, with a huge view. Enjoy your morning coffee relaxing on the deck while watching the sunrise over the lake.
The cottage has a full kitchen, dining area, living room, two bedrooms (one with a queen bed and one with a full/twin bunkbed), and a full bath. The sofa in the living room is a queen sleeper sofa. The maximum number of guests is 5. This is a true tiny house, but when you are at the lake you are there to enjoy the outdoors, and we have plenty of outdoors available :-)
The kitchen is stocked with dinnerware, flatware, pots and pans, small appliances including coffeemaker (full pot and Keurig), toaster, mixer, etc. Bed linens, kitchen towels, bath and hand towels are provided (please bring your own beach towels).
There is a Roku/Smart TV with Blu-ray DVD player in the living room and a Roku/Smart TV in the lakeside bedroom with the queen bed. The cottage is stocked with a variety of children and family games.
If the nights are cool there is heat and if it gets too warm there is air conditioning. We upgraded to a high efficency mini-split heating/air conditioning system in 2024, eliminating the need for the window air conditioner.
The Hilltop Hideaway is located at the end of the lane so there is almost no traffic and the cottage is positioned at the top of a hill that overlooks the lake. The front deck is the full width of the cottage and has railings and latching gates to keep the little ones (kids or dogs) contained. The deck has a patio table and chairs, as well as a propane grill (propane provided). Make use of the fire pit to enjoy evening campfires, roasting hot dogs, and consuming s'mores.
The cottage faces to the east, and is overlooking the lake toward an undeveloped portion of the lake's shoreline, this adds the the natural beauty of the view of the lake.
You will have a private 30’ dock where you can tie up your boat(s). Please let us know if you plan on bringing a boat or jetski. Note - The dock is removed around the end of Sept/early October and will be reinstalled in late April/early May.
There is a very large sandy beach at the base of the hill, right in front of the cottage with a large swimming area that has a sandy bottom and a gradual slope. Our association has about 900 feet of shared shoreline.
The owner's cottage is located next door and has two kayaks, a stand-up paddleboard, two paddle boats, a rowboat, and an Otter Island swim raft available for your enjoyment. The "water toys" are available normally from the end of April/early May through the end of Sept/early October. The swim raft is normally removed from the water in early Sept and put back in service around mid May.
Little Long Lake is a 154-acre spring-fed lake that spans the IN/MI state line, with the lake about evenly split with half of the lake in Indiana and half in Michigan. There are times designated for high speed fun such as waterskiing, tubing, or wakeboarding and also no-wake times to allow for peaceful fishing or lazy cruises around the lake. The Michigan half of the lake’s high speed times are 11am-7:30pm, while the entire lake allows high speed from 1pm-4pm. There is a concrete public boat ramp on the MI side. Those that enjoy fishing regularly catch largemouth bass, bluegill, crappie, and perch.
The WiFi in the area was recently upgraded to fiber. The Hilltop Hideaway now has 100 meg internet.
The Hilltop Hideaway is located in a quiet neighborhood, so we ask for no loud parties, and please observe quiet time after 10pm.
There are two security cameras on the property, exterior only. They are both for our protection and yours.
Please leave the cottage in the same condition that you found it.
We purchased this cottage in January of 2019 and spent the spring remodeling the cottage, including a new kitchen, remodeled the bedrooms, replaced all woodwork, all doors, some windows, and painted the entire interior.
We understand that you might want to have friends visit for an afternoon at the lake, but at no time should there be more than a total of 8 people (total of registered guests and day visitors).
We do welcome dogs as guests, there is a $50 pet fee (per stay, not per night or per dog, max of 2 dogs) and dogs must be on a leash when outside. We ask that dogs not be allowed to bark excessively as to not disturb the neighbors.
Please observe the 10mph speed limit when driving on the roads/lanes in the subdivision.
