Pine Lake Retreat- sparkling hot tub! Walk out to our sandy beach lakefront!

Our Pine Lake Retreat offers the ultimate package for lakefront relaxation! Enjoy our 60’ of sandy lakefront on Pine Lake 1, an excellent spot for swimming on summer days, and enjoy relaxing in the professionally maintained hot tub overlooking the lake! Pine Lake is a 660 acre all-sports lake that includes 4 total lakes, all connected, and is perfect to explore by boat! Pine Lake features a spectacular 4th of July fireworks show each summer and is a favorite spot for fishing tournaments as well! The main house offers 2 bedrooms with one King sized bed and one queen sized bed. For additional sleeping space, we have a guest bunk-room just steps away from the front door (it is not directly connected to the house but very close by). This additional sleeping space offers 2 twin-over-full bunk beds and has heat and air conditioning. Please Note: we close the bunk-room during the Winter months (November 1 through April 1). If you will need to use the bunk room during the winter, please just let us know when you book your stay- we charge an additional $25 per night for use of the bunk-room in the off-season. For our youngest guests, we provide a pack & play upon request. Please note: the pack & play must be reserved when booking your reservation to ensure availability.

The main house features an open-flow from the kitchen to the dining area to the living room with a great view of the lake the moment you open the front door! The living and dining rooms offer plenty of seating for guests and a cozy gas fireplace. The large deck overlooking the lake offers plenty of space to entertain and relax. We offer a comfortable outdoor sofa to lounge and relax, porch swings, an outdoor gas fire table, Blackstone grill, a dining table, a fire pit by the water, and a 6-person hot tub with a gorgeous view of the lake! Our hot tub is professionally maintained and is open year-round.

We provide 2 single person kayaks and 1 two-person kayak for your enjoyment. If you would like to explore the lake even further, pontoon boat rental is available for an additional cost. Please reach out to us for additional information regarding renting the pontoon boat.

In the winter time Pine Lake is very popular for ice fishing and snowmobiling, and also offers great ice skating! For the ski/snowboard/snow tubing enthusiast, there are a few different ski hills just a small drive away as well!

After spending the day on the lake, enjoy a relaxing soak in the hot tub overlooking the lake and wind down in the cozy oasis that we have created on the deck!

Please note: We have a motion-activated security camera light on the house near the front door.

Very quiet location
Just had the best weekend at this place!! And definately will be back in the summer to rent the pontoon and stay again. Lake is fairly clear. The following were some of the complaints in the reviews. Read the details in the book before attempting to turn both fireplaces on. I didn’t need to call the owners. The dog and cat next door were friendly. The dog would only bark a few times then stopped. The hot tub was amazing, again follow the simple directions. Yes, there is well water so bring a couple jugs of water. I can’t wait to go back!! So quiet!

A very relaxing get away!
My boyfriend and I stayed for a long weekend with our dog for our 10 year anniversary. The house was super cozy and the view of the lake during fall was beautiful! The deck was wonderful and we enjoyed the fireplace and hot tub during the cool nights. And I really loved the addition of the blackstone grill. I love cooking and it was very relaxing to cook outside with the cool breeze and a view of the lake. The only thing I can note that wasn’t listed in the description (unless I missed it) is that the house runs on well water. That’s not a huge deal but just be prepared to buy water to have at the house for drinking/brushing teeth. Everything else was great and I wouldn’t be surprised if we came back again sometime. We enjoyed it!

Quiet and relaxing weekend
This property was the perfect place to relax by the water. The cottage was the perfect size, maybe even a little too big, for my wife and I but it was very clean, with great views of the lake, and lots of natural light. The deck was a great place to sit and relax and enjoy the scenery of Pine Lake!

Great place to stay!
The house was perfect for our group of 4 adults. Kitchen was well stocked with all cookware/dinnerware. Nice coffee machine / keureg. The Blackstone on the deck was a nice touch. The hot tub was pre-heated and waiting for us!! We had trouble getting the indoor fireplace working and the property manager got back to us immediately with instructions and the fire was promptly up and running! We rented the pontoon with the property and it was very nice. I plan to rent here again!

First stay at Pine Lake
This was our first trip to Pine Lake area. House was very nice with high end appliances and fixtures. Place was smaller with 2 beds/1 bath. But was perfect for our family of 4. Quiet side of a large lake with up north feel. But close to large towns and restaurants. We chose to rent the optional pontoon boat to enjoy the lake even more. We were happy with whole experience and owners communicated real time. Great place.

family weekend
We had a great time hanging out at this house. My 3 sons 28-32, 2 grandkids 2 and under and 3 dogs. The lay out was great, and the bunk room worked out well. The lake was beautiful and they caught sever bass and Pike. The only suggestion I would make is to not have the plug in air- fresheners. The scent was too strong and bothered my allergies. ( it was easy enough to put them in the box on the deck for the weekend. ) My kids really liked the house and we hope we can make it back again.

Wonderful week at the lake!
What a great week!! We choose to rent the pontoon (which was very nice!) it really made the week. We cruised, anchored and swam, fished, it was so fun. The cottage is quaint and with the bunk room it was the perfect amount of space for our family and parents.

Just Right!
A very nice cottage and a perfect size for my family! The bunkhouse was great for my three granddaughters and me. We LOVED the hot tub and the deck overlooking the lake. Had SO MUCH fun. Just a couple negatives- mattress in the smaller bedroom probably needs replacing, quite uncomfortable. We could not get the indoor fireplace to light.

peaceful property
Overall, the stay at this property was great - relaxing and peaceful location overlooking the lake plus a hot tub for relaxing under the stars! The host was super responsive and helpful with questions. My only complaint is that there were some items/areas of the house that could have used more attention... The dining room chairs and couches had several stains and some of the silverware was still dirty. The fireplace wasn't working and the reclining part of the couch seemed pretty wobbly. These weren't issues that made us disappointed with our stay, but would have been nice to have these details addressed before we stayed. We really did have a relaxing and enjoyable weekend and appreciated the space to enjoy some time away!

We never figured out how to get the fire places working, followed the directions, no luck, someone’s dirty underwear in the bench in the bedroom. In the bright side the hot tub was great, it was a nice space and we had a good time, the lake was pretty with the ducks!

Beautiful house.
My husband and I stayed here in the winter for a weekend away. The house was great. Very comfortable and accommodating and very clean. The owners were also very friendly and great to work with. The only thing that was disappointing was the hot tub. It was one of the reasons we chose this property and I was so disappointed at the cleanliness of it. It was very cloudy and had almost a greenish cast. The hot tub walls had scum and black build up. The back jets only worked on the low setting. One of the jets was floating in the hot tub and the lift for the cover was broken which made it very difficult to get on and off. We were pretty bummed. We sat in it for about 10 minutes and we’re so grossed out we got out. I truly loved the property and the area. That was the only my downfall.
