The house is a large A-frame; as soon as you walk through the front door you will see the heart of the lodge's main area. The floor to ceiling stone fireplace runs through the center of the entire house.
As soon as you enter the home the room is warm and inviting. You will love a blazing fire in these fireplaces. The house has a rhythm that matches its lakeside location. Summer weekend life at the lodge is a jumble of bathing suits, suntan lotion, laughter, food, family, and fun.
The house's decor is fully appointed in a fitting lodge and fishing theme. The main level consists of a great room combination, kitchen, dining room and living area. The entire front of the house is windows, with great views of the lake from most areas of the house. The loft is perched above the main area, and there are two wicker rockers overlooking the great room below. It's a wonderful place to sit and enjoy your morning cup of coffee while looking out over the lake. The loft also has a large bedroom and small bathroom. The main level has two bedrooms and a full bath.
Enjoy a cookout with a lake view -- the gas grill, picnic table and patio set on the deck give plenty of seating for everyone.
A flag flies from the front deck, where life is measured in counting boats on the lake in the morning and sipping glasses of wine and watching the sun set as the day wears down.
The lower level of the house has a game room with a pool table, bedroom area with a full bed, fireplace, a full bath with a washer and dryer. Glass doors lead out to the court yard with the 6 person hot tub.
This is a no-smoking home. Ask about bringing pets.
