Lakefront Retreat | Big Deck, Espresso & FirePit
🌲 Five Echos – Secluded Cabin Retreat Near the Lake 🌲
Game Room • Forest Views • Steps to the Water
Tucked deep in the woods, Five Echos is a cozy cabin retreat where peace, play, and a touch of storybook magic come together. Legend has it this cabin once belonged to a Swiss-German yodeler (yes, really!)—so don’t be surprised if the forest feels alive with echoes of its past.
Just 500 steps from the lake, this hideaway blends rustic charm with modern comforts, making it the perfect escape for families, couples, or friends looking to relax, reconnect, and recharge.
Inside, soaring floor-to-ceiling windows frame the forest, while the warm woodsy interior and thoughtful amenities make you feel right at home. Step outside to stargaze, roast marshmallows by the fire pit, and share laughter echoing through the trees.
Highlights You’ll Love:
🌿 Secluded & Peaceful – Surrounded by forest views
🚶 Lake Access – Only 500 steps to the water’s edge
🎮 Game Room Fun – Air hockey, oversized Connect Four & more
🔥 Cozy Fire Pit – Perfect for stories, s’mores & starry skies
🍳 Chef-Ready Kitchen – Double oven, wine fridge, French door fridge & breakfast bar
🎞️ Movie Nights – Smart TV + DVD library for rainy days
❄️ All-Season Comfort – Central A/C + toasty electric fireplace
