About this property

Lakefront Home on Lake of Egypt with Dock

New lakefront 3 bed, 2 bath home. Large master bedroom has private bath with huge tub. Other 2 bedrooms have own decks. Washer/dryer. Firepit, gas grill.

Large stocked kitchen. Knotty pine sunroom. Beautiful views all around. The sky at night is breathtaking. Near amazing hiking and gorgeous wineries. Spend all day playing in lake & fishing, enjoy sunset on the deck or go antiquing & hiking.

Canoe, 2 Kayaks, Lilypad float and paddleboat included with rental. There is a private dock if you bring your boat with a swimming dock attached. Great fishing off of the dock and we keep fishing poles and a tackle box in your cabin.

Great wineries, hiking and biking nearby! Very close to Ferne Clyffe State Park, Giant City State Park and in the Shawnee National Forest.

We also have other cabins if you have more family wanting to travel with you.

Please no smoking inside the cabin.

We are available to our guests by phone or text.

It's so quiet and all of the neighbors are wonderful. It is a very safe area. Fun to walk around or ride bikes.

There is no public transit to the cabin.

We have a little camp store within walking distance if you want to buy souveniers, sweatshirts or handmade items by local artists.

Have a peaceful magical vacation.

About the host

Hosted by Kris Shellabarger

Host profile image
We love our own log cabin on the lake so much that we built another one to share with others. Our guests loved the log cabin so much that we built a tiny cabin on the lake, a treehouse and a 3 bedroom, 2 bath lake home to share with guests as well. We spend much of the summer boating, fishing and swimming during the day and sitting around the fire at night. We also love to check out the local farmer's markets and wineries and sometimes hit the antique stores. In the winter, it is so cozy and we love to hike and catch up on a good book.

Why they chose this property

We wanted to buy in Colorado because of the night sky. The Lake of Egypt sky was just the same but much closer to home. On many nights, we can see the milky way. There is not a lot of light pollution and to watch the sky and a bonfire is so much better than anything we could watch on TV!

What makes this property unique

We are directly on the Lake of Egypt and offer a canoe, kayaks, paddleboards and a paddleboat to enjoy. Also there are fishing poles and fun fishing right off the dock. The sky is amazing and our property is at the end of the street and very private.
