Garret's Place is a wonderful retreat for 4 couples or a close group of friends and family. Private setting with panoramic forest views, very quiet and peaceful, and close to wonderful hiking and biking (or snowshoe/XC) trails.
Plush new living room furnishings and an overhaul on the kitchen have given fresh atmosphere to this large contemporary 2-story home. New 50" Smart TV with wireless internet, gas fireplace, large deck with hot tub and new gas grill, brand new couch with all the fixings, new easy chairs and kitchen counter stools. Sunny and cheerful, Garret's Place features panoramic forest view with a peek of the lake. Dining table for 10, well-appointed kitchen. 3/4 bath in hallway.
Master bedroom upstairs with King bed, TV, (gas fireplace in master is currently unavailable), and full bath with Jacuzzi tub (doesn't always work)/shower; guest bedroom also upstairs with Queen bed.
Downstairs (entry level) is the Laundry room, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (1 with tub, 1 with shower only): the two beautiful bedrooms have new Queen beds and forested views. This home just received a makeover with all new beds, dining room table, TVs, linens, towels and even paint. The house looks great!
