Lake living in a relaxed family and pet-friendly home

If you’re looking for the perfect large gathering space, there is room for even the extended family here! Take a trip that is reminiscent of going to your grandparents’ log home or summer camp. Swim, swing, make S’mores, work puzzles, play board games, kayak, bring your own boat for fishing or play or rent one locally. There is a boat ramp and a loading dock, but limited overnight docking.

Discount available for 7 day rental ($300+ total).

PET/ALLERGY WARNING: Your well-behaved pets are welcome, but be aware there are cats and dogs that live here when you’re not visiting.

Keeping in mind the many small families that make up a large family like ours or a friend group, each room is designed to accommodate two adults and one or more additional children.

A permanent ramp is located at the side entrance of the home for convenience, and a portable ramp for back entrances is available. Raised toilet seat with support handles is available.

There are two security cameras/doorbells on the premises covering front and back yard areas/pool.

Annual family vacation. Plenty of room for all of us to spread out. A nice kitchen with a great assortment of equipment. We love to cook most of our meals on family vacations.
