***LAKE LEVEL UPDATE ***– Amazing Waterfront Views!

Exciting news! As of the last week of April 2026, the lake has fully risen and waterfront access is back at Streamside Retreat! For the first time in several years, we have officially reopened the dock so guests can once again enjoy direct access to the water for kayaking, fishing, relaxing, and soaking in the beautiful lake views.

As the lake has recently returned to full level, the water continues clearing more each week and the dock is now fully accessible for fishing, kayaking and relaxing by the water.

We are thrilled to welcome guests back to enjoy the LAKE and can’t wait for you to enjoy mornings by the water, sunset kayaking, fishing from the dock, and evenings in the hot tub overlooking the lake.

We had a wonderful getaway for a few days! The home was thoughtfully stocked and decorated for guests. This would be an awesome space for a large family, teens and small children, or a girls weekend. The views were amazing, the water felt perfect, and even with a rainy day, we were able to enjoy quiet time reading, visiting, and resting in the spacious family room!Great communication with Denise and she was so sweet surprising us with cookies as the hot tub had a power issue caused by a recent storm. We'll have to use the hot tub next time! Thank you!
