Spacious enough for the whole crew or just for two, our 7 seat hot tub offers peaceful lake views and privacy. Unwind & relax; perfect for sunset soaks or starlit chats.
Private dock with 20’x10’ boat slip, lounge seating and easy access to kayaks and paddle boards—perfect for swimming, sunning, and soaking up peaceful lake views. Bring your boat or rental!
End the day with crackling fire, sticky fingers and sweet memories. Our s'mores kit has everything you need for the perfect treat by the fire.
Intentionally designed to create multiple places and ways to enjoy the outdoors, whether BBQing, dining, lounging, soaking or steaming, all with a view of the lake.
Relax & recharge in the cedar barrel sauna, where the warmth of the cedar meets the calming lake view. Follow it up with a dip in the lake or cool off in our outdoor shower.

What a wonderful location! Everything about our stay (bachelorette trip) was immaculate. The hosts were extremely communicative. The house is listed as a "wellness escape" and that's exactly what it is. We enjoyed time in the hot tub, sauna and even had a private yoga instructor come in to teach a class. She commented on what a great job the owners did outfitting the yoga studio. Will absolutely stay here again!

Beautiful, well stocked LKN home

One of the most thoughtfully decorated and stocked homes I’ve had the pleasure of staying at! The hosts were super responsive to our requests. The house is brand new. Pots, pans, workout room, even a spare tooth brush in case you needed it is provided. We docked our 24 ft pontoon at the private dock and enjoyed the paddle boards. I highly recommend this property for your stay.

We had such a wonderful stay at this property, truly one of the most relaxing and enjoyable spring breaks we’ve had. The house was spotless, beautifully maintained, and incredibly well stocked with everything we needed to feel right at home.The owner was fantastic, very responsive, attentive, and clearly cares about making sure guests have a great experience. Their taste in decor and furnishings is A - beds are super comfortable!!!!!There was something for everyone. The kids had an absolute blast with the paddle boards and kayaks, while the adults loved unwinding in the sauna and taking refreshing dips in the “cold plunge” lake. We also rented a boat for a few days, which made it even more special to cruise around and take in the scenery. A stop at the Blue Parrot was a fun highlight as well.Overall, it was a simple, serene, and memorable getaway.

The house was beautiful. We had a great time bringing in the New year, here. The game room was super fun, as well as the family board games, provided. Loved the sauna and hot tub. Great laundry room. I particularly Liked the kitchen appliances: coffee makers, air fryer, toaster, and the nice dishes and pots/pans. I appreciate that we were provided with quality items in the house. Only one of us did kayaking since it was too cold, but that is another great option, provided. Lauren, was an excellent host!
