The space
This inviting rental offers a quiet escape surrounded by natural beauty, while still being conveniently located near local amenities and outdoor recreation.

Step inside to find a warm and comfortable living space designed for relaxation. The home features an open and welcoming layout with charming furnishings, a fully equipped kitchen for preparing meals, and comfortable bedrooms ideal for families, couples, or small groups looking to unwind. The primary bedroom offers a private layout with a comfortable queen bed, creating a spacious and restful retreat. The second bedroom features a full-size bunk bed, thoughtfully suited for children; for safety reasons, we ask that only two children or one adult sleep in the top bunk. Mini-split systems provide year-round comfort with both heating and cooling options, and a gas stove adds extra warmth on especially cold evenings. For safety and efficiency, please ensure the dining room mini-split is turned off when the gas stove is in use.

Large windows bring in plenty of natural light and offer calming views of the surrounding wooded landscape, creating a restful and restorative atmosphere throughout your stay. The setting encourages you to slow down, relax, and enjoy the peaceful lakeside environment.

Guests have access to a washer and dryer for added convenience, as well as WiFi and streaming-enabled TV to stay connected or unwind with your favorite shows after a day of exploring.

Step outside to enjoy a range of amenities designed to enhance your stay. Guests can take advantage of an outdoor fire pit perfect for evening gatherings, a grill for cookouts, and a private dock ideal for lake access, lounging, or launching your own kayak or the owner's paddle board left on the premises for guest use. An outdoor shower offers a refreshing way to rinse off after a swim or a day outdoors, and an outdoor clothesline provides a simple, traditional way to dry towels and swimwear in the fresh air.
