About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Large relaxing house in 25 acres of private woods with lake access.

Spend a slow summer day walking the trails in the private forest, playing in the lake, and sipping ice tea on the deck. Or snowshoe for miles on the nearby trails and return to a warm fire and cocoa.
The house is not ADA compliant, but is designed to be friendly to guests with limited mobility. There is a first floor bedroom with a full size bed, near a bathroom with a low lipped shower with an integral marble bench.
The house is not directly on the lake. To access the lake you walk about 15 minutes on a forest path.
