About this property

Lakefront Oasis w/ 2 fire pits, game room & kayaks

Welcome to paradise! This iconic lakefront luxury farmhouse boasts panoramic sunset views! Your group of up to 12 will enjoy all the lake has with 2 kayaks & 2 stand-up paddle boards. Cook your favorite dishes in either of the 2 fully equipped kitchens and dine indoors or outdoors! While at your home base, enjoy the fully loaded game room with a pinball machine, foosball, and games/puzzles. Cozy up at night to either of the two fire pits or two fireplaces. Come & make some memories at the lake!

No need to worry about keys as you enter the front door via keyless entry. Walk through the foyer with its convenient cubbies for storing shoes and coats, and step into the living room. Unwind on the plush furnishings in the cozy warmth of the fireplace. You’ll love the spacious, open feel of the room and the breathtaking views of the lake.

Craft delicious meals in the fully equipped kitchen with an eight-burner gas stove, double-wide refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave. You’ll also find a toaster, crockpot, blender, hand mixer, and automatic wine opener. All of the cookware/serving ware you need to prepare and serve a meal for a large group are provided. Need extra space to prep a meal? Head to the lower level for a full 2nd kitchen featuring a full-size refrigerator, oven/stove, and dishwasher!

In the morning, prepare your favorite hot beverage from your choice of coffee maker, French press, or electric tea kettle. Enjoy sipping your beverage on the deck off the living room, enjoying the picturesque views of the lake.

With ample dining space, everyone will find a spot at the island or screened-in attached gazebo. Or dine al fresco at the outdoor dining table on the patio and cook on the gas grill with host-supplied gas.

While you’re outside, you can hang by the covered patio and engage in some competitive lawn games, or head down to the lake for some water fun! You will be sure to enjoy all the lake has to offer with the provided 2 kayaks, 2 stand-up paddle boards, and a floating mat. You’ll be able to keep everyone safe with the ample selection of life jackets provided.

At night, convene the group around the fire pit in Adirondack chairs and make s’mores and maybe even tell a spooky ghost story! You can also cozy up on the patio with the gas-powered lava/fire pit table. Back inside, have a blast in the game room, featuring foosball, a pinball machine, a giant magnetic wall Scrabble board, puzzles, and board games in this spacious area.

After a full day of enjoying all the Chain O’Lakes have to offer, head for a restful night’s sleep in your choice of 5 bedrooms. In the master bedroom cozy up with your favorite novel while sitting by the fireplace and enjoying the breathtaking views of the lake. A dedicated workspace allows for any remote work needs. You’ll love the master ensuite bath with his and hers sinks, an oversized shower, and all bathroom essentials (bath towels, hair dryer, and toiletries).

Discover the 4 additional bedrooms that will comfortably provide privacy and space for all of your guests! 3 of the bedrooms feature queen beds. Get ready for the glee on your kids' faces when they see where they will be sleeping! They will enjoy "the best sleepover ever!" in the bunk room featuring two adorable twin-over-twin bunk beds. Your kids will stay entertained with the toys, books, basketball hoop, and tic-tac-toe.

Refresh and rejuvenate in the 3.5 bathrooms, all providing extra toiletries. The upstairs and lower level full bathrooms offer a tub/shower combo. Additionally, a powder room is located on the main level to allow you and your guests to freshen up.

An Amazing Stay
Our family of 11 drove to IL from RI and MS. The house was exactly as promised! We have never rented a house that was so well appointed! Everything we could have needed was in good supply and labeled for ease! We had so much room and were able to invite more family in to celebrate a full Family Christmas! We had great communication with Sarah before, during and after our stay. The location is so close to good food and we took the train to Chicago for the day! We had an amazing stay and hope to get our family back here again! Kathy
Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2023
