Lakefront Lodge: 2 King Suites, Game Room, Kayaks & Fire Pit!

Escape to The Lodge, a stunning three-level lakefront retreat nestled within the gated nature preserve of Gateway Mountain. Designed for multi-generational families or groups of friends, this home offers the perfect balance of private sanctuary and communal fun.

The Main Level: Heart of the Home
Walk into an open-concept living space anchored by a classic wood-burning fireplace. The fully updated kitchen and dining area flow seamlessly to the deck, where you can start your morning in a rocking chair overlooking the water. This floor features a convenient King En Suite, perfect for those who prefer to avoid too many stairs.

The Loft: A Private Escape
The upper level is dedicated to a second King En Suite. The star of the show is the open loft area featuring two hanging swinging chairs that overlook the lake—the ultimate spot for an afternoon read or a quiet morning coffee.

The Terrace Level: The Fun Zone
Head downstairs to the ultimate entertainment hub! This level features:

A second cozy living area with gas logs and a futon.

A game room stocked with bumper pool and shuffleboard.

Two additional Queen bedrooms and a full bath, providing plenty of space for everyone to spread out.

Outdoor Living & Lake Access
The adventure continues just outside the basement door. Relax in one of the two hammocks in the shaded seating area, or gather around the fire pit in the Adirondack chairs as the sun sets. A private path leads you directly down to the water’s edge where your private dock, kayaks, and the serene lake await.
