About this property

Egypt Lake Escape is located near all the fun on beautiful Lake of Egypt

BEST LOCATION on Lake of Egypt, right across from Party Cove and just a short kayak ride away from Egyptian Hills Resort. Beautiful view close to all the fun. You will love our cozy cottage with its own private double covered dock on deep water. We provide a large floating lily Pad for more swimming fun. In the evenings, enjoy the fire pit down by the water. Lake of Egypt is great for fishing, swimming, or boating. Don’t have a boat, don’t worry, we provide 3 kayaks, a petal boat, and a paddle board so you’re all set to go. *High Speed Internet

Amazing stay! We have been to Lake of Egypt multiple times and this was our favorite spot by far. Our host was incredible and so easy to communicate with. We loved all the lake accessories provided and spent every moment by the water. The house was clean and had everything we needed. We will be back! You can’t beat the hospitality provided and felt very accommodated. Thank you so much for creating a beautiful space to make memories that will last forever!

GREAT LAKE VIEW

Enjoyed our stayed. Location, views, wildlife and firepit are great. Don't recommend upstairs bedroom for elderly or young child, has steep spiral staircase and home has only one shower which is very small in lower bedroom. But would overall recommend and stay again.

Great house, perfect location

Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate with us during our stay so we were not able to fully take advantage of being on the lake and the amenities offered. We will definitely be back when we can enjoy the lake. The house was great, very clean and well cared for. We loved the location on the lake, it was very quiet which would be perfect for kayaking.

Perfect Weekend Getaway

We had such a good stay for the 4th of July holiday. The house and property exceeded our expectations. Very clean and well taken care of. There was plenty of space for our family of five. Our teenagers really enjoyed the upstairs loft bedroom. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking. We utilized the nice dock for our boat and we caught so many fish off the shoreline. This place really has it all for your lake getaway. Beautiful location and home! Vickey was also very attentive to any questions I had. We already booked our next trip back!

Wonderful weekend stay

The property was great and Vickey was very responsive to any questions we had. Our kids enjoyed swimming in the lake, playing on the lily pad, and using cicadas as bait for fishing. House was comfortable and well stocked. We had a fantastic time and would highly recommend this property!

Wonderful Weekend

We loved our weekend getaway on the lake. House was perfect. We are bird nerds so we loved seeing the heron and egrets across the way. We enjoyed taking the kayaks out and floating in the lake after a day of hiking. One of our favorite vacations.
