Host profile image
We are so lucky to live year round on this amazing lake. Ending a busy day with a glass of wine on the deck watching the sunset is my absolute favorite thing.
Mark and I want nothing more than for you to enjoy that same experience. Along with my brother Rick we just love providing vacation memories for families and friends!
Living on the chain of lakes for the last 8 years we have so much to offer for the first time visitor - let us know how we can be the perfect vacation concierge.

Why they chose this property

This is a perfect small neighborhood on a dead end street. Everyone on this street is here for the same reason, to enjoy all the water has to offer. It is not uncommon for all to gather at a firepit in the evening to share a beverage or roast some marshmallows!

What makes this property unique

We have 2 jet ski ramps and a great doc for boat parking. We do have the best view on the lake for sunsets hands down, with a fire pit right at the waters edge. Our property can provide for you all of the toys you may need for your water fun at a very low price from tubes to knee boards!
The large family room with game area is perfect for evening gathering. We have included many games for you to have hours of game playing fun.

Unlike many property rentals we are just minutes away so we can quickly meet any of your needs.
