Beautiful place. Plenty of space for our group of 5 adults and 3 kids. Minor hiccup was learning last minute that we needed to bring our own sheets and towels. This detail is hidden all the way at the bottom of the ammeneties list and should be more clear on the listing. We would stay here again.

Family Getaway

The Wine Down home is beautifully set in a quiet neighborhood. The amenities made our 8-day stay so easy with a fully furnished kitchen, basic supplies, and a beautiful double boathouse with upper sundeck. The decor in the home looks like something out of a magazine…you literally want to relax. Lots to do with local shopping, boating, fishing, and more. The host is amazing and is quick to respond to any questions. I highly recommend Wine Down to any family looking to “wine down”!

It was perfect for our family of two young adults, a girlfriend and two pups. We spent so much time on the boathouse fishing, swimming, drinking morning coffee, and watching the sunsets. Sincerely hoping we are able to visit again next year. Thank you so much for sharing your home.

About the host

Hosted by Kate Webster

Host profile image
Hi! Thanks for considering my house for your vacation! I bought this property to enjoy with my friends and family when I was living in NYC and needed to have a respite from the fast pace of the city!! My friends and family are largely in the VA/NC area and so it was the perfect central location to be able to enjoy time with people I love. Since buying the house, I have relocated to NC and am able to enjoy the house much more regularly now - which has been fantastic! I travel internationally a lot and so you will see hints of my travels throughout the house. Hope you love it as much as I do!

Why they chose this property

This property has it all - a wonderful point lot with 221 feet of lake frontage, private beach areas and feels very private while still being close to the marina, the main lake, Washburn’s and local shopping area. The house is perfect for groups of friends or multiple families because its laid out with kitchen/bar and living areas on both of the main floors, with bedrooms and full baths. Plus, the boathouse! If you want sun or shade, motor boats, jet ski’s or kayaks, or just want to relax with good food and drinks, you won’t need to leave. It’s a very unique and special property! Hope you love it as much as I do!

What makes this property unique

This house has 270 degree views of water and 211 feet of water frontage with private boathouse and beach areas. If your want to have fun and relax, this is it.

The house has two main levels each with living spaces and kitchen areas. There are multiple places to gather, eat and drink, so you can all have the vacation you want.
