Lakeside Living!
The farmhouse on Sugar Lake is a gorgeous, newly renovated home with stunning views of a tranquil glacial lake. The large deck had ample comfortable seating to enjoy the birds and wildlife. This home felt like an oasis from the stresses of daily life, encouraging you to disconnect, slow down, and relax. We loved the well-equiped kitchen, comfy beds, beautiful spa-like bathroom, and fancy barbecue grill. We enjoyed roasting s'mores in the fire pit with lake views. Our stay at the farmhouse gave us memories that will last a lifetime and we hope to return someday!
