Lake Metonga is 2200 acres, crystal clear, sandy beach bottom with a friendly entrance to the water for young and old. Enjoy the summer nights with a beautiful sunset or the moonlit water that looks like diamonds dancing from the north side of Metonga. We will provide the following during your stay at The Bungalow:
Patio furniture, linens (excluding blankets), private fire pit and if you plan on bringing your own boat we have ample room on our 50 foot dock for you to tie off. Also, there is a public beach with life guard on duty, volleyball courts and shelter just 2 blocks from the vacation home.

Best Vacation Ever
We had the best time on the lake for 2 weeks. The Hosts are awesome and we had a great time talking with them. This is the first time we had a total relaxing vacation and enjoyed every aspect of the property and Lake. I highly recommend staying at this location, we will be back.

Heaven on Earth
Have you always wanted a trip to Heaven but shied away from the dying part? I know I did. That’s when we decided to book The Bungalow for a week trip. It was absolutely wonderful. The home is charming and full of character; a slice of history that guests get to be a part of. From the moment we walked in and were greeted by Joelle, we knew that our last-minute vacation would be a memory-maker. It was nothing short of that. We opted to rent their pontoon boat as well, a very wise decision if you’re not bringing your own boat. The lake was perfect for swimming, cruising, or sitting out on and watching the stars. Incredible. The home offered great cooking capabilities, sleeping arrangements, and a view that you’ll be hard pressed to beat. We hope to be back again sooner rather than later!

Summer getaway
Beautiful old house with a great porch. Started each day with coffee and breakfast looking out over the lake and ended each day around the fire staring at the clear skies and stars. Days were full of fun on the crystal clear water. Highly recommend for a relaxing and peaceful getaway!

Wonderful Property
The home and property were fabulous. Plenty of room for epic badminton matches, the porch kept us cool when not playing. The owner is awesome and very accommodating. Highly recommend booking here.

About the host

Hosted by Joelle Nelson

Host profile image
We are a family that loves to spend time together. My husband and I both are managers and this home is our "little piece of heaven" away from our busy lives. We have lived in the area our whole lives and enjoy sharing this home for others to create memories.

Why they chose this property

We have a very special place in our hearts for this home as we love the old. We are the first to buy it from the original family and had the opportunity to meet the daughter of the original owners. Driving in for the first time, we did not even notice the home due to the spectacular lake view. Love at first sight!!!

What makes this property unique

The Bungalow was the first house built on Lake Metonga, it has much history to share. The view from the front porch with your early morning coffee or sitting in the three season room at night listening to the water hit the shore is mesmerizing.
