The Lakeside Family Retreat has a sizeable, wooded lot that provides a cozy atmosphere, a lovely view, private dock and gentle slope with walk-in access to the lake. The A-frame is roomy and open with plenty of space for family and friends. You can see the lake from most of the house; stand in the kitchen or sit at the table and watch the kids on the porch. While the house will accommodate nine guests, there are plenty of private spaces to have a quiet conversation, such as the gazebo swing and the glider on the dock. The huge screened-in porch with cypress-lined, vaulted ceiling lets you relax and enjoy all the sounds and sights of the lake, even on a rainy day.
Our loft has a full bath as well as the little balcony overlooking the lot. The place has a real "family-feel" and that alone reduces stress. In fall and winter, the fireplace is a nice addition and we keep the hot tub available all year for another pleasant way to wind down. There's an extra tank of gas available for the grill, too.
