The photographs of the "lake access" are really misleading. The dock slip is accessible via a walk of down a short lane, between two other houses, and down multiple flights of stairs. You have zero view of the lake (at least during summer or when the trees are full - I don't know if you can see it in winter), and to say you have access seems a bit of a stretch to me. The house has a nice layout and was plenty of space for our family of three plus grandparents. Our son loved the ping pong table, which was a fun bonus. If you care about super dark rooms for sleeping, you'll need to bring some coverings. Two of the three bedrooms had uncovered windows which were a disappointment. Overall, it's a clean space I'd call sufficient, but nothing spectacular.
