Perfect for large groups, family reunions, retreats or weekend getaways. This expansive property features 5 Bedrooms, 3 Full Bathrooms, with flexible sleeping space allowing the home to comfortably sleep up to 12 guests.
Enjoy gorgeous water views from the Great Room and the multiple decks attached to the home. The home also has two full kitchens and plenty of space for everyone.
The Space:
Private Lakehouse on an acre of Land with gorgeous water views and lake access in the backyard.
The home has two levels. On the first floor, you are greeted with a sitting room opening up to the recently remodeled kitchen and Great Room with 15-foot ceilings.
The Great Room is one of the best views in the house of the lakefront in the backyard, and also offers access to the screened-in back deck and the unscreened second rear deck.
The natural light from all the windows in the Great Room is truly breathtaking. In the evenings, be sure to turn on the Great Room Chandelier for an artificial candlelight setting, to set the ambiance and cozy vibes in the evening.
The screened-in (Deck 1) has an outdoor dining room table for family gatherings on those days you'd prefer your meals outdoors with a view. There is also a minifridge for beverage storage on the screened-in deck.
There is strand lighting around the screened-in deck as well as a small wooden bar with a few barstools.
The Un-Screened (Deck 2) also has an outdoor patio table with an umbrella for shade. There is a Charcoal Grill on this deck that can be utilized by guests for grilling. There is also a Propane Outdoor Heater located on this deck that guests are welcome to use during their stay. (Please feel free to message us on how to turn this Outdoor Heater on and off).
The First Floor Kitchen offers new Quartz Countertops throughout, a small built-in bar area with 2 leather barstools, Matte Black Hardware, and a gorgeous almond cabinet color. We hope you love the Navy Blue Diamond Chevron backsplash tile as much as we do!
Both kitchens (upstairs and downstairs) are stocked with Silverware, Dishware, Wine Glasses, Microwaves, Coffee Makers, Complimentary Coffee Grinds, Fridge & Freezer.
The First Floor offers 3 bedrooms in total - each with a Queen Bed.
The Owner's Suite offers the largest bedroom, with a 40 Inch Flat Screen Google Play TV with all the applications already downloaded (Netflix, HBO, Peacock, Paramount, ESPN, etc). Guests will have to log in to streaming services with their own login information. A dedicated workspace is also located in the owner's suite.
There is an en-suite bathroom attached to the Owner's Suite offering a standing shower, double vanity with quartz countertops, and a Jetted Soaking Tub. The Owner's Suite also offers a sizeable walk-in closet with a baby high-chair and baby rocker. Should you need a child's playpen or children's toys during your stay, please message us directly, and we will accommodate your requests as promptly as possible!
The two additional bedrooms also have flat-screen 40-inch ROKU TVs, a dedicated workspace, a queen bed, and walk-in closets.
Completing the upstairs floor would be the laundry room. Should you need any additional linens or towels, they are stored in the Laundry Room cabinets when you first enter the laundry room on the right.
The downstairs access from the first floor is the door closest to the Front Door Entry. The staircase is refinished hardwood with stair tread protectors for pets that may be joining you.
The house is very PET FRIENDLY with all hard surface flooring - please note that the backyard is NOT FENCED and you should keep an eye on your pets when they are outside. There are 100 foot runners for dogs attached to trees in the backyard if your pet plans to join you for some backyard relaxing.
On the bottom floor is a huge entertaining room that connects to a screened-in patio outside with epoxy flooring. There are paddleboards located in the screened-in patio that guests are welcome to use - there is also a 6-person hot tub for guest use within the screened-in patio and a little Tiki Bar area.

The second full kitchen also offers new Quartz Countertops, floating shelving for Dishware, Matte Black Hardware, and a gorgeous green cabinet color. A dining room table is also located next to the kitchen for downstairs dining.
The two bedrooms downstairs each offer a Bunk Bed set up with a Queen Bottom Mattress and a Full Top Mattress. There are flat-screen 40-inch ROKU TVs in each bedroom. There is a dedicated workspace only in one of the downstairs bedrooms.
The entertaining room has a Foosball table, a Dart Board, an XBOX gaming console, and classic DVDs and console games for you guests to enjoy.
Board Games for the house are also located in the TV Stands downstairs, to include: Monopoly, Sorry, Life, Playing Cards, etc
The backyard has a fire barrel with plenty of chopped wood that guests are welcome to use for firebuilding. Please be safe if building an outdoor fire - guests using the fire barrel do so at their own risk and liability; there are Fire Extinguishers benetah the kitchen sinks in the home for additional safety and a waterhose located on the front of the home.
There is a private dock in the backyard that can be used for launching the paddleboards. The water level is typically 2 to 4 feet right off the backyard dock.
*DISCLAIMER*: Aquatic Plant Vegetation levels off of the backyard dock have been abnormally high this season. We recommend launching Kayaks, Paddle Boards or Water Toys at the Community Dock for deep water access.**
There is a community dock, with deep water access, within walking distance from the home, that is great for swimming and free for guests to use - this is also a really good fishing spot!

Guest Access:
As our guest, you will have exclusive access to the entire property, ensuring complete privacy during your stay. This includes five spacious bedrooms, three full bathrooms, two fully equipped kitchens, and comfortable living areas.
Outdoors, you are welcome to enjoy the expansive backyard, the relaxing hot tub, and the screened in deck area for outdoor dining.
Please note that while the entire home and grounds are yours to enjoy, we kindly ask that you park only in the designated driveway and refrain from docking boats at the backyard pier.
The Neighborhood:
Nestled on a private road within a peaceful residential community, this home offers a serene escape while remaining perfectly positioned for lakefront adventures.
You are just moments away from local water activities, including fishing and boating, making it an ideal spot for nature lovers.
While the neighborhood provides a quiet, secluded atmosphere perfect for relaxation, you are still within a short drive of local dining and entertainment, allowing you to enjoy the best of both worlds during your stay.

Getting to our lakefront retreat is most convenient by car, which we highly recommend for exploring the local area, including nearby restaurants, entertainment, and swimming spots.

Terrific property. The house is huge with lots of extras. The host is outstanding. Prompt replies to questions, readily available, lots of good information. The water was disappointing but we are in a major drought so I wasn’t too surprised. Overall I would definitely recommend this property. And the backsplash in the kitchen is amazing!
