Spend the mornings enjoying your coffee out on the upper deck or down below on the patio overlooking the beautiful lake. Afternoons can be spent fishing, boating, swimming, kayaking or just relaxing in the sun on the swim dock. After a day of fun and sun you can enjoy an evening around the outdoor fire pit or cuddled up on one of the sofas watching your favorite shows. There are plenty of board games and yard games for the kids and young at heart to play.

CAUTION: Due to the nature and very rural location of the home on a lake there is a potential to encounter various wildlife and insects. Deer, otters, bald eagles, fish, foxes, snakes (poisonous and non-poisonous), frogs, turtles and other wildlife are seen almost daily. And we have a variety of insects that naturally live in the trees and wooded areas to include spiders, ticks, ants, mosquitoes, beetles, silverfish, bees, wasp and flies. We do our best to keep them out, but they may come in when doors or windows are left open. We have a Pest Control service that sprays monthly for a large variety of pest. Please help us keep them out of the house and clean up after yourself.

WARNING: Potential for electric shock when swimming near boat docks. Please swim at least 150 ft away from the boat docks at all times.

Up to 2 dogs allowed with $100 nonrefundable pet fee. If you have a dog/s and want to bring it/them, then register them upon booking. Honesty is the best policy (smile). Guest that fail to register dogs will be removed from the property without a refund.
