13-Acre Luxury Estate with Private Lake, Private Golf Range, Forest with Hiking
Enveloped within 13-acres of serene landscape, this sustainable haven is your own private 3-acre lake with boat dock, pedal boats and canoe, private 300-yard golf driving range, private forest with 3,000 feet of walking trails, floor-to-ceiling library of 1,000 books, expansive views of mountains, and much more. The lake has bass and catfish.
A sublime setting for private receptions, birthday celebrations, family reunions, and company retreats -- the Lake Estate invites you to indulge in eco-luxury. Note: No events allowed.
The photos will look amazing.
These elegant, peaceful grounds are a perfect site to simply reconnect with nature or hold memorable large gatherings and events. The Lake Estate has hosted many weddings and receptions, holiday retreats, other special occasions. It’s our pleasure to accommodate you for special requests and pricing for day-use only rentals, event planning services, and more.
The Lake Estate sits on an expansive landscape of 13 tranquil acres that serves as your very own private oasis. Rolling hills, 7 acres of well-manicured lawns, garden areas, and forest for exploration. The Lake Estate is directly adjacent and connected to Paulinskill Nature Reserve (a 200-acres park owned by the government and open for seasonal hunting). The estate is home to all sorts of animals (rabbits, owls, woodpeckers, geese, ducks, red-eared and snapping turtles, bass and catfishes, foxes, opossums, etc). Frequently, deers and black bears will pass through the Lake Estate. Fishing and swimming are allowed in the lake.
The stately Manor House sits on a hill, offering sweeping views of the property and is designed to harmoniously match the outdoor grandeur. Tall ceilings with skylights, a grand entry foyer, a private library and two spacious living rooms let you unwind in comfort. A large dining room and multiple kitchen seating areas provide plenty of room for everyone to gather. A front patio and oversized back porch deck mean you’re just a step away from relishing the outdoors. A 6-grill BBQ and outdoor fire pit are always ready.
The estate has 6 bedrooms and 15 beds in assorted sizes... including a master "bridal suite" with king bed and in-room relaxing sofas. There is a kids' room that's perfect for families with children. A third bedroom also includes a king bed with in-room sofa and loveseat. A fourth bedroom includes a queen bed and small area for sitting. A fifth bedroom has two double beds with ottoman — all with plenty of space to relax and unwind. A sixth bedroom on the first floor is ideal for anyone who don't like climbing stairs.
We take pride in providing a sustainable-living vacation at its finest, with all utilities generated on-site. The Lake Estate has the tallest wind turbine in Sussex County. There are two solar systems and an aerated aquifer providing triple filtered clean water. We’re also home to a brood of chickens located on the property, a nod to the extensive farming heritage in the local community.
Please note that the property no longer has an above-ground pool. All water activities are available in the private lakes located on the estate.
The house offered lots of gathering, living and eating spaces. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were extremely clean when we arrived.The grounds were rather unkempt and it IS a stretch to call the 2ft-deep man-made pond a lake though… it is not suitable for swimming, wading or cooling off

The host was very attentive and responds quickly. He was also very accommodating and let us check in early and check out late before asking. The house is also spacious and suited our party well, providing all the necessary amenities, even house slippers.

Amazing Stay
We booked this space as we were having a wedding nearby and it was perfect! We had a blast fishing in the lake, playing golf, and grilling on the patio!
The rooster was a little aggressive when going to feed the chickens, but besides that, the place had absolutely everything! We did wish there were a little more bathrooms given the space hosts 16 guests, but we made it work. Overall, it was really fun staying here!

We had a truly wonderful stay at this Augusta, NJ home from April 15–19. It suited our needs perfectly as we gathered with a large group of family and friends to celebrate our son’s wedding. With events taking place nearby in Andover and at Waterloo Village, the location was incredibly convenient and made the entire experience feel seamless.The home itself was a fantastic fit for our group—spacious, comfortable, and very much reminiscent of the large family home we once owned before retiring to Florida. It provided the perfect setting for reconnecting, relaxing, and celebrating together, which meant a lot to us.The amenities were just as described and met our expectations well. While there was no outdoor spa as noted, everything else contributed to a very enjoyable and comfortable stay.We did encounter a bit of difficulty with our early check-in, but the host was gracious throughout and exceptionally responsive and communicative, which we greatly appreciated. Their attentiveness made a real difference and helped ensure everything went smoothly overall.We would absolutely recommend this home to others, especially for larger gatherings or special occasions. It played a meaningful role in making an important family milestone even more memorable.

Labor Day Weekend getaway
Overall our time spent at this home was great! It was the perfect place for all of our friends to meet up for labor day weekend and reconnect after some of us have moved away.
The pond wasn't very swimmable - the water plants were so tall they were touching the surface/just beneath the surface from the bottom of the pond and it was quite shallow. Was fine for us to float on but again, not really swimmable.
The home owner was quick to respond when the front door automatic lock wasnt working and we werent able to access the property which we were grateful for!

Scam photos & description: Do not rent
These people are running a full scam. Photos and description make it seem serene and luxurious.
In reality this house is in the middle of a busy town and neighborhood. Warehouses all over and constant traffic.
Also the “driving range” is down a busy street with tons of cars. Or you can track 30 minutes through the woods
House manager is also overseas and knows nothing about the property. Owner is obviously a scam artist.
Rent any other house than this.

This person never stayed at the Lake Estate and when he was unable to get a refund for the reservation (due to VRBO policy), he decided to make false statements about this beautiful property. We are a highly rated Superhost on another major booking platform. See our top rated reviews there from over 50 different guests and you will be convinced that the Lake Estate is truly an oasis. The Lake Estate hosts several micro-weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, and corporate retreats each year with guests writing 5-star reviews about their amazing and wonderful experience. Thank you for listening.

Tranquil Retreat
The cleanliness of the space was impeccable, offering a refreshing start to our stay. With an ample number of beds, our team found comfortable accommodations, ensuring everyone rested well throughout our time together.
The spacious layout allowed for productive meetings and relaxed gatherings, complemented by seamless communication with the hosts. However, our excitement for fresh eggs was dashed by an overly protective rooster, resulting in an unexpected encounter. While it added a memorable anecdote, it was a missed opportunity for a farm-fresh breakfast.
Despite the rain dampening our plans to explore the grounds and enjoy kayaking or canoeing, the property's natural beauty still shone through. Nestled away from the hustle and bustle, it provided a serene backdrop for our retreat, offering a sense of escape without sacrificing convenience to nearby shops.
In summary, our experience at the property was largely positive, marred only by a few minor setbacks. With potential for further enhancement on rainy days experience activities and perhaps a more cooperative rooster, it remains a desirable destination for future gatherings.

Thank you, Magleny. The rooster indeed can be protective. Next time, you can use a broom to shoo him away. There were lots of eggs waiting for you! We hope you stay with us again soon.

this home is not as it is pictured. it is very worn and not well maintained for the price point. i do not think the home was cleaned and prepared properly for our arrival. the heat was off it was 50 degrees when we arrived and took several hours to warm up. the bedding is old and dated and we needed to find bedding wash it and remake our beds due to finding sheets not clean. amenities were scarce. there is a problem with yellow jackets among other insectsin the home. we had to vacateone of the rooms upstairs in the night because of the bees and we killed several during our stay. we communicated some of these issues to the host and were told they would work on doing a better job. this didn’t help our situation and we were already under much stress from our mother passing away and the reason for the rental. we have not had a chance to follow up with vrbo and since i have not been in this position beforenot sure what if anything can be done. may be water under the bridge.

The home is well equipped and furnished. Otherwise, every guest would be complaining about same thing. The Lake Estate is surrounded by wildlife... including insects. Insects are part of nature. This guest claiming bees are swarming inside the house is total nonsense. Sometimes insects will enter the house when doors or garage doors are left open. We care about all of our guests. But there is a fine line between apologizing for valid complaints vs. letting exaggerations (bordering on lies) become the truth.
