Cardinal Cottage: Cozy Rustic Lakefront Escape at The Pier, Perfect for 5! | Cottage in Union City
2 Bedroom Cottage in Canadohta Lake, Union City
A Lakefront Escape Designed for Pure Relaxation
Step into your own slice of lakeside paradise. Guests enjoy 100 feet of private shoreline, perfect for morning coffee by the water, lazy afternoons in the sun, and unforgettable sunset views that paint the sky in gold and rose.
Right next door, Ruggles Park adds even more to explore — a community beach, basketball court, and fishing pier make it a natural playground for families, friends, and anyone who loves the outdoors. (Pack a cooler and grab a lawn chair to make the moment even sweeter.)
Please note: pets are not permitted, and there are no lifeguards on duty.

• 2 bedrooms (1 full bed + 1 twin/double bunk)
• 1 bathroom
• Kitchen with range and refrigerator
• Cozy porch for sunrise coffee or evening breezes

Heating comes from electric radiator heaters in each bedroom and a wall heater in the main room. For warm days, a whole house fan and additional circulating fans keep the cottage cool and comfortable.
Shared Amenities at The Pier
