The home offers an open floor plan with plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the lake. Entering the home you are greeted by a quiet sitting room with a beautiful view of the lake opening onto a large deck with plenty of sitting space, chaise loungers and a charcoal grill.

To the left is an open floor plan with living room, dining area, kitchen and a bath with shower. Everything you need for a relaxing and enjoyable experience is provided: fully stocked kitchen (food and drink not provided) with full size refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, electric stove, coffee maker and microwave. The living room is provided with a 40" television with a DVD player (we use Google Chrome Cast). Internet access is provided. (network and password is provided upon arrival)

Heading upstairs are three bedrooms. The first bedroom room is furnished with a queen size bed a dresser, night stands and a small television.

There is a full bathroom with a washer and dryer for guest use, bath and beach towels are provided.

The master bedroom may be the best room in the house, with a queen bed and two twin beds. A large closet is available for guest use. The bedroom has a 40" television and DVD player. (uses Google Chromecast) The bedroom has an on-suite bathroom with a shower. Off the bedroom, through the large sliding glass door, is small deck with table and two chairs to enjoy your morning cup of coffee, a drink in the evening or just to sit and enjoy the lake view.

Outside Provisions

Outside there is always something to do. In addition to the two decks, two community docks are available for guest use. (docks are shared with the owners) The dock directly in front of the house houses the owners watercraft, however there is a wonderful covered seating area with table and six rocking, swivel chairs (additional chairs are available upon request). A swing is located on the dock, perfect for relaxing or even a nice nap. Wet steps on the dock are provided for easy in/out water access.

The second dock is directly in front of the owners house, which is directly south of the rental. The dock is basically a floating patio with a spectacular view complete with a fish cleaning station, a large round table with seating for eight and anti-gravity chairs for relaxation. One half of the dock is covered, while the other half is perfect for soaking up the sun. There is a slide on the dock for your kids’ entertainment. Wet steps are provided for easy in/out water access.

Best of all, being located in the back of a cove you are rewarded with what will seem to be your own private swimming area with good water depth and clear, spring fed water. Although there is not a covered dock slip for your boat, there is a boat ramp on the property and guests are welcome to secure their boat to the north side of either dock.

Guests are provided with use of two kayaks, a paddle boat, a lily pad floatation island, and numerous other water toys. Fishing on either dock is good, especially in the early morning and evening. There is a playground area for the kids with a slide and swings to keep the youngsters busy. In addition to water toys there are also several outdoor games available: cornhole bean bag toss, washers, ladder golf, a portable basketball hoop, and more. A small fire pit is available for use however we ask our guests to use common sense when using the pit, i.e. no large fires, no fires left unattended, no fires during windy conditions. Wood is available upon request.

Rainy or bad weather, no need to worry, in addition to the covered docks the home has a large two and a half car garage complete with some exercise equipment, a dart board, table and chairs and a view of the lake. The garage is large enough to play most of the outdoor games in the event the weather is not cooperating for outside activities.

Quiet Time

Although the property is somewhat secluded, there are a few neighbors and we request guests observe quiet time after 11 PM. All facilities are still available for use after 11 PM, we just ask guests to use proper discretion on the amount of noise they create so as not to disturb our neighbors.

Pet Policies

We are a dog friendly location (2 dog maximum). The yard is not fenced, however there are tie outs available. Guests will be responsible for their own dogs, their waste and any damage their dogs create. Aggressive dogs will not be allowed.
