Egypt Lake Escape is located near all the fun on beautiful Lake of Egypt

BEST LOCATION on Lake of Egypt, right across from Party Cove and just a short kayak ride away from Egyptian Hills Resort. Beautiful view close to all the fun. You will love our cozy cottage with its own private double covered dock on deep water. We provide a large floating lily Pad for more swimming fun. In the evenings, enjoy the fire pit down by the water. Lake of Egypt is great for fishing, swimming, or boating. Don’t have a boat, don’t worry, we provide 3 kayaks, a petal boat, and a paddle board so you’re all set to go. *High Speed Internet

Lake view is beautiful. Neighbors are friendly but not invasive. Property is very clean. We did encounter some small spiders and webs but that’s lake life. We enjoyed taking out the kayaks. It was very easy to get into them in the shallow water with a small rocky area.

GREAT LAKE VIEW

Enjoyed our stayed. Location, views, wildlife and firepit are great. Don't recommend upstairs bedroom for elderly or young child, has steep spiral staircase and home has only one shower which is very small in lower bedroom. But would overall recommend and stay again.

Amazing stay! We have been to Lake of Egypt multiple times and this was our favorite spot by far. Our host was incredible and so easy to communicate with. We loved all the lake accessories provided and spent every moment by the water. The house was clean and had everything we needed. We will be back! You can’t beat the hospitality provided and felt very accommodated. Thank you so much for creating a beautiful space to make memories that will last forever!
