Villa Toscana – Rustic Italian Lakeside Retreat - Private Boat Dock and slip

Villa Toscana – Rustic Italian Lakeside Retreat | 4BR for 10 Guests | Private Dock, Media Room & Water Fun

Welcome to Villa Toscana, your dreamy lakeside escape with the charm of a 2000s rustic Italian villa—think warm stone finishes, arched doorways, and cozy “mini-castle” vibes throughout. With 4 bedrooms and a casita apartment (open to rent additionally) and space for up to 10 guests, this home offers the perfect blend of luxury, character, and family-friendly fun in a private, safe neighborhood.

Just 12 minutes from downtown, you’ll have quick access to restaurants, shopping, and city life—while still enjoying peace and quiet on the lake. You’re also close to scenic hiking trails and sightseeing spots, making it easy to explore the outdoors between lake days. Rainy day? No worries, Villa Toscana comes prepared with a movie room and board games for the whole family!

Bring your boat and dock it at your own private boat dock, or enjoy the included paddle boards, kayaks, and water tube for non-stop fun. There’s even a water trampoline for the kids and a swimmable lakefront with jumping access from the dock.

Inside, you’ll find a gourmet kitchen, a cozy media room for movie nights, and spacious bedrooms with warm, old-world charm. The front lawn is perfect for kids to play safely, and the outdoor dining area lets you soak in lake views over a glass of wine.

Whether you’re exploring local trails or spending the whole day on the water, Villa Toscana is your perfect base for a relaxing and adventurous getaway.
