GOT A BOAT? Or maybe thinking of getting one? Check out this CHIC COTTAGE Cottage in Heritage Harbor of Ottawa, an active lifestyle community on the Illinois River. Great location with breathtaking water views and gorgeous sunsets-this place has it all! The open floor plan is perfect for hanging out or entertaining. The main level features a stylish kitchen with a large island used as a dining area, a convenient powder room, and a side door leading to a cozy patio with a firepit. The second floor offers a master suite with a private veranda to watch sunsets over the harbor and a second bedroom that has its own balcony, full bathroom, and laundry. Big party in the works? The cottage is right next door to the clubhouse, which can be rented for free for all of your big gatherings. Plus, there's a lovely pool just steps away.

The voguish staircase runner, seaside wall art pieces, and fun furniture will totally give you beach vibes!
