About this property

Private lakefront home w/ large dock, pets welcome, Wi-Fi, kayaks, boat rental.

The secluded Lakefront home is on almost two acres of wooded land with pine, oak, magnolia, and hickory trees. Enjoy the beautiful waterfront views from the indoor living area, large wrap-around deck, or brand new dock with sundeck and screen in the room. Starlink Wi-Fi is available at the house.

Walk from the deck of the house on a wooden walkway down to our beautiful large dock. The dock has a large screened-in room with a comfortable love seat, two lounge chairs, a coffee table, an end table, and a ceiling fan with light. This is the perfect spot to relax, read, enjoy the lakefront, or even bring the laptop down for work outside. There is also a large sundeck with two Adirondack chairs and a chaise lounge for sitting outside to enjoy the sunrise and sunset. We also have an outdoor shower on the dock to shower off after your swim.

The pontoon housed in the boat house on the dock is available for rental at an additional charge. Please contact for more information.

The house is on a private, spring-fed lake recognized for excellent fishing, swimming, relaxing, floating on a raft, boating, and skiing. Be sure to try out some fishing, as our lake is great for catching bass, bluegill, and sunfish. Fishing poles and tackle are provided. Enjoy the 2-person kayak or single kayak around the large lake.

The spotless waterfront home has two good-sized bedrooms, one renovated bathroom, and a large open-concept living area comprising the brand new kitchen, dining area, and living room with panoramic lakefront views. Both bedrooms are outfitted with gorgeous Amish-made solid wood furniture. The kitchen is fully stocked to prepare your meals in-house. The large, solid wood, Amish-made breakfast nook is perfect for gathering the family around to share in the bounty from your lake fishing. Outside dining on the deck on a beautiful poly lumber Amish patio set is also available.

Our home will surely become your home away from home and the perfect retreat to get away from it all!

The house was clean as always and had everything we needed, even a new grill. There are treats and blankets for the dog. It's always very peaceful there. It was our fourth visit. It rained alot, but that can't be controlled. The owners are lovely people and we are grateful that they share their beautiful home. We plan to return in the spring.The Gardners, Venice FL

Peace and Tranquility

We had a wonderful 3-day stay at this beautiful lakefront home for my 50th birthday! The pontoon rental was the perfect touch, and the peaceful setting made for a truly relaxing getaway. My dad, my Yorkie, and I had the best time—thank you for a memorable stay! We plan on returning.

If you’re looking for peace and quiet, this is it. This lake house offers a lot of amenities, is well maintained and is comfortable and clean. The wraparound deck overlooks the lake. And the screened gazebo is a plus. The host is very responsive. I highly recommend this place.

Little Piece of Heaven!

As has been our experience in the past, we had such an amazing time just doing a lot of nothing! Our favorite thing to do! We caught some fish and ate them…..another of our favorite things to do. This is the most perfect place to relax and take in so many of God’s wonders. Thank you Linse and Jim, for sharing your beautiful lake place with us! We hope you will allow us to visit again!Dianne and Gene (Pritchard)

Perfect getaway!

My wife and I had a lovely stay at this property over Valentine's week. We brought our 2 dogs, who also loved the lake and rural surroundings. The property had all of the perfect, thoughtful touches for pet-parents, and all of the amenities you could need for a stay. Communication, and recommendations were timely and on point, and the home was spotless. Would love to come back as often as we can in the future!

Perfect

This lake house was fantastic. The pontoon boat was flawless and it was a very comfortable ride and great to fish from. The house had everything you needed and I can’t say enough about the dock. The screened in porch is such a great idea and so comfortable. The fan and light in there were great. Caught a lot fish. Saw a lot of wild life and just enjoyed myself immensely. Bailey, my dog , would agree. This is the place to get away from it all. Thanks for letting me stay in such a wonderful lake house. PERFECT

Relaxing stay

We were looking for a property to accommodate our family of 3 and dog while we attended the UF football game and visited our son. Although this property is about a 35 minute drive to campus, it’s a relaxing drive and welcoming environment after being around 80K people at a football game! We would definitely stay there again.
