Chances are we never heard of social distancing before the dawn of 2020, but today and for the foreseeable future it’s become a way of life. That can make planning getaways kind of tricky. However, you can easily practice social distancing – and in total style – at this lakefront cabin in Missouri. It boasts a ton of amenities, including a private lake.

Flanked by 17 private acres in Bonne Terre, The Waterfront Cottage snuggles right up to a private two-acre lake that’s loaded with fish. (Feeding the fish is a fun pastime for all who visit.)

You’ll have to climb up a ladder to get to the second floor loft that features two twin beds and plenty of privacy.

The first floor bedroom sits tucked off of the sun-soaked living room. If you’re visiting when it’s chilly, start a roaring fire in the fireplace.

Cook in the cozy kitchen that also features a dining room table and chairs, a perfect spot for everyone to gather for a meal.

You’ll feel right at home in the adorable cottage, but once you see outside, you may want to stay out there the whole time. Fill the outdoor claw tub with bubbles for a relaxing bath, for example.

The private lake is also an ideal spot for feeding the fish or for catching fish. (Both catch and release and catching fish is permitted. However, you will have to bring your own bait.)
