About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Waterfront | Dock + Dog Friendly | Crystal Lake
Wake up with Crystal Lake only about 50 feet from the home, where mornings can begin with coffee by the water and days can unfold at their own pace. Paddle out while the lake is calm, cool off with a swim near the dock, fire up the grill after an afternoon outside, then gather around the fire pit as another lake day winds down.
With room for up to 10 guests, this 4-bedroom waterfront home gives families and groups a comfortable place to settle in, spread out, and enjoy the best part of staying here, the lake is always close.
Where You`ll Sleep
After a full day on Crystal Lake, everyone has a comfortable place to recharge. Three bedrooms each feature a queen bed, while another bedroom offers three twin beds, an easy setup for kids, friends, or family members traveling together. A twin rollaway cot provides an additional flexible sleeping option.
Bedroom 1: Queen bed Bedroom 2: Queen bed Bedroom 3: Three twin beds Bedroom 4: Queen bed Bonus: Twin rollaway cot
Bed linens are provided, with extra linens available in the linen closet by the bathroom.
Gather & Unwind
Come together in the living room after a day on the water. Settle in for a movie on the Smart TV, catch up over a board game, or simply relax and plan tomorrow`s adventures. Cable and Wi-Fi are available, and you can sign in to your own streaming accounts.
Heating, air conditioning, ceiling fans, and portable fans help keep the home comfortable throughout your stay.
Cook, Dine & Connect
From coffee before an early paddle to dinner after a long afternoon outside, the kitchen has the essentials for meals at home. You`ll have a full-size refrigerator and freezer, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, drip coffee maker, toaster, cookware, bakeware, dishes, and more.
When it`s time to eat, gather around the indoor dining table with seating for up to eight.
Step Outside
This is where the lake-house experience really begins. Head onto the deck, settle into the outdoor furniture, or fire up the gas grill with propane provided for an easy meal outside.
As evening rolls in, gather around the wood-burning fire pit and slow things down after a day of adventure. Just remember to bring your own campfire wood.
Your Crystal Lake Playground
Crystal Lake is approximately 50 feet from the home, giving you direct lakefront access without having to plan an entire outing.
Head down to the dock for a swim or grab one of the kayaks and explore the water. The home includes one single kayak and one double kayak, with life jackets provided. The water near the dock is swimmable and approximately six feet deep at the end of the dock.
Bringing a boat? There`s a public boat ramp nearby, along with driveway space for boat-trailer parking.
🐾 Dog-Friendly Property This is a dog-friendly home, and we love hosting well-behaved pups! To keep the space comfortable for all guests, only dogs are permitted (no cats or other pets). Please let us know in advance if you’ll be bringing a dog, and be sure to add them to the reservation, as the pet fee applies per dog. Any additional dogs must be approved in advance. Please keep in mind that the yard and waterfront are not fenced, so pets should remain supervised and on the property.
