-NEW-Lake Escape on 6 Acres w/ Goats & Donkeys

Welcome to the Fox House — 6 private acres of lake life, fresh air, and room for everyone.

Highlights:
• Master king bedroom downstairs
• Two queen bedrooms downstairs (Jack-and-Jill bath)
• Upstairs suite with king bed + twin trundles
• Large upstairs TV room for movie nights
• Private dock with boat slip
• Pet friendly (downstairs only)
• Fiber internet
• Hobby farm with goats, miniature donkeys, and alpacas

This is the kind of place where cousins stay up too late upstairs, grandparents appreciate the downstairs bedrooms, and everyone gathers in the kitchen pretending to help with dinner. The open living, dining, and kitchen layout makes it easy to cook big breakfasts, play games, and unwind together after a day on the water.

Downstairs you’ll find the master suite with a king bed, plus two queen bedrooms sharing a Jack-and-Jill bathroom — ideal for guests who prefer not to climb stairs. There are three full bathrooms downstairs and one upstairs, making mornings and post-lake showers much easier for larger groups. Upstairs offers a private suite with a king bed, twin trundle beds, and a spacious TV room that’s perfect for movie nights or a kids’ hangout space.

Outside is where the memories really happen. Fish at sunrise from the private dock, bring your boat, grill in the fenced courtyard, or simply relax and enjoy the peaceful setting.
As part of our small hobby farm, guests are welcome to feed approved treats to the goats, miniature donkeys, and alpacas through the fence. The animals remain safely in their enclosure, but they’re always curious and happy to greet visitors.

Whether you’re planning a family reunion, birthday weekend, or laid-back lake getaway, the Fox House is built for relaxed, laughter-filled days.

The upstairs bedroom is heated and cooled with a window unit, while the rest of the house has central heating and air. Please note that the upstairs includes several step-ups and step-downs, adding a unique, multi-level layout.

Our property has Ring cameras for added security and convenience, including doorbell cameras at the house and a camera at the front gate. The cameras are only used to monitor arrival and departure.

The jet ski lift is temporarily non-operational.

The host lives on the property in a separate cottage

This was the second time staying here, we love this property! It is clean, well equipped with plenty of room for everyone. The four full bathrooms is a big plus! There are games and of course, the lake for fishing. The host is so easy to work with and we’ve never had any issues staying here.
