About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Tranquil Waters Retreat

Kick back and relax in this calm, stylish space on Lake Sara with beautiful lake views. With plenty of space across two floors, kids can enjoy their own space with TVs and games while the adults relax upstairs.

Lake Sara is located near Effingham, IL and offers boating, fishing and swimming. The home is only eight (8) minutes drive from town, and just inside a cove so the lake views are fantastic but not on the main body where the waves can be quite big. There is a boat dock where you can park a boat and we have kayaks and water toys for guests to can use.

It would be better if the tv in the guest bedroom worked. We were never able to get it to stay on.
