A Spacious Lakefront Home Designed for Real Gatherings and Time Together
This home was created for people who want to spend time together without feeling crowded.
The layout is intentionally generous, balancing shared spaces with quiet places to step away. Guests often comment on how quickly the house settles into “home”—how easy it is to relax, cook real meals, and simply be present once everyone arrives.
Mornings are calm. Evenings unfold naturally. The house supports connection without effort and rest without retreating.
The Home This is a spacious, thoughtfully designed lakefront home that works exceptionally well for families, multi-generational groups, and friends traveling together. The layout allows everyone to spread out comfortably while still gathering easily.
Guests consistently mention how welcoming the home feels—comfortable rather than delicate, lived-in rather than sterile.
“It has a comfortable feeling like you are truly welcome there—not uptight or sterile.”
The living areas are designed for real use: conversation, games, shared time, and unhurried evenings.
Kitchen & Shared Meals The kitchen is fully stocked and designed for actual cooking, not just light prep. Seating, flow, and workspace support shared meals and lingering conversations.
This is something guests call out repeatedly: “The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed.” “We cooked every night and didn’t feel limited at all.”
Many guests note that once they arrive, they don’t feel the need to leave.
Sleeping & Comfort Beds are frequently praised for comfort, and bedrooms offer privacy and quiet after full days together. The home sleeps large groups without feeling like everyone is stacked on top of each other.
“Plenty of room. We never felt crowded, even with a large group.”
Bathrooms are clean, well-maintained, and stocked for convenience.
Outdoor Space The outdoor areas extend the livability of the home. The yard, patio, dock, and fire pit provide space to gather or step away depending on the moment.
Spring brings peaceful mornings and returning wildlife. Summer brings long evenings and time spent outside together. The lakefront setting is calm and private, making it easy to relax without outside distractions.
For Families & Groups Families appreciate the space, layout, and kid-friendly design. Adults appreciate the quiet, comfort, and ability to relax without managing the house. It works equally well for celebrations, reunions, and simply staying put together.
“Perfect for our family gathering.” “We made so many memories here.”
What Guests Say Most Often “The photos don’t do this house justice.” “It exceeded our expectations.” “Everything was thought of.” “We didn’t want to leave.”
Guests also consistently mention responsive, attentive hosting and clear communication before and during their stay.
This is a home for guests who value comfort, space, and meaningful time together more than flash. If that’s what you’re looking for, you’ll feel at ease here.
Other things to note: This property has special local compliance requirements, which include a signed rental agreement, ID verification, and a security hold of $1000 (which is not a traditional security deposit, just a pending transaction). As an optional alternative to the security hold, you may opt in to purchase a non-refundable damage waiver provided by a third-party insurance company. The optional damage waiver is $40 for stays up to 10 nights, with an additional $2 per day for stays longer than 10 nights. Damage waiver purchases are optional.
To make this process easy for you, we use a secure and very simple, app-free platform called Happy Guest. It is not an app, and you do not have to sign up for an account - it’s a safe and secure website. It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of my favorite local spots.
If you have any questions, just message us anytime! Happy to help!

We had a wonderful stay at Redwood Retreat. This house is well-stocked with everything in the kitchen and bathrooms. Very clean and organized! This house has everything to offer. There was beautiful snowy weather during our stay and our kids had a great time walking the property and even sledding down the hill towards the lake. We will be back next winter!

This home was gorgeous and even better in person than in the pictures. Every detail has been thought out by the owners, including accommodations for my senior dog. We had a family ranging in age from 11 months to 72 years old, and there was something for everyone. Beautifully appointed rooms, plenty of space for quiet time, open concept in the kitchen, dining and living areas so we could spend time together. The whole family was comfortable and we'd all like to come back next year. If it was possible to give 6 out of 5 stars, I would. The owners were so easy to communicate with through the VRBO app and very quick to respond. Wonderful place to stay, highly recommend!!

Lots of fun
3 families had a great time at this beautiful beach house for a long weekend. The weather was windy and rainy but the owners have stocked the house with a lot of comfort and recreational amenities so the weather was never an issue. The hosts rate an A.

Great Family Vacation Spot!
We booked this property to celebrate my dad's 60th birthday as a family and it was a perfect spot for us. My dad loves to fish and the outdoors so he was so pleased. The home was clean and well stocked and just lile the photos.

Family time
We were visiting family from out of town and we had a wonderful time. We loved the house, we were able to relax and enjoy the views of the lake while accommodating our large family. Matt and Marry were excellent hosts, we would love to stay in their home again. The house was perfect for my family, I already tried to book it again for August but it’s already booked up. Great stay!
