Home away from home! What a wonderful retreat. Beautiful decor, cozy and relaxing. Enjoyed our morning coffee on the deck overlooking the trees. The lake, beach and pool areas are very welcoming. The hot tub was an added bonus to a perfect vacation!

Fun Family Weekend

We had a great stay at this property. The home is beautiful and thoughtfully appointed. As a short-term rental owner myself, I can tell when owners/managers have put a lot of thought and work into making my stay comfortable, and this place really hit the mark! My kids loved the community amenities as well.

The Fox Den was perfect...

The Fox Den was perfect for my husband and me. The chalet has a large, tastefully furnished great room with wonderful natural light, and a gourmet kitchen. The beds were very comfortable, and the entire place was spotless. Even with the weather not quite cooperating, we still enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful getaway vacation

We had the best time at Heather’s newly renovated, cool and comfortable lake house. We enjoyed the hot tub immensely and the house comfortably fit my family and our children’s 2 teen friends and our dog. The Hideout offered lakes and beaches and pools. The house was cool enough and we had all the amenities of home (fully stocked kitchen and washer and drier). We also made s’mores out back almost every night. We would definitely go back to their home again. Thank you Heather!
