Such a great location. Right on the lake but feels private since it's on the cove. Very quiet during the week; boat & people activity picked up on the weekend. Love the easy entry to the water and all the access to floats/kayaks/paddleboard. Nice to have grocery & ABC store so close too.

Thank you Pat for another wonderful vacation! We always enjoy fishing from the kayaks and the ease of launching them from the shoreline. Our biggest catch of the week was a 34" cat fish caught on light tackle from our fishing kayak! The shady area and shallow shoreline is perfect for young children. The house is comfortable and a great location. Pat is always very helpful in ensuring you have a good time. We are already looking forward to returning in the spring!

First family lake vacation

This was our first lake vacation and we loved every minute of it! The house was so cute and cozy and came with all the things you could need. The waves to the lake was by far the best part. The walk in beach type area was perfect for our kids and dogs. The boat ramp was literally 4 houses away and the house is located on a culdesac. We look forward to booking this house again.
View from the provided floats.
My kids also really enjoyed the complimentary paddle boards!

About the host

Hosted by Patricia and Richard Batko

Host profile image
I have always wanted to own a B & B, and hosting this lake house is the closest we can get. We do our own cleaning and much of the maintenance between bookings and take personal pride in seeing that the home and property provide the best possible vacationing experience for our guests.

Why they chose this property

The owners take personal pride in the home's comfort and cleanliness.

What makes this property unique

This is one of the few properties that welcomes well-mannered pets. We bring our own pets here and it adds to the family enjoyment .(and saves on boarding fees) We do request a refundable pet deposit of $350 which is refunded to you as soon as our cleaning is complete.
The property is on the water and only a few hundred feet from the boat ramp. There is a dock with several cleats to tie off guests' boats, but the beach is suitable for wading or floating.
Garbage pick-up service provided on Mondays
