As you step inside, you'll be greeted by a warm and cozy atmosphere. The main floor features a well-appointed living area with comfortable seating, perfect for relaxing and unwinding after a day of adventure.

One of the highlights of this lakeside retreat is its proximity to the water. Just steps away from the house, you'll find yourself on the edge of the glistening lake. Imagine waking up in the morning and enjoying a cup of coffee while taking in the serene views or having a picnic by the water's edge.

For those who love water activities, this Airbnb offers an exciting perk. Canoes and kayaks are available for guests to use, allowing you to explore the tranquil lake at your own pace. Paddle along the shorelines, discover hidden coves, and immerse yourself in the natural beauty that surrounds you.

But the fun doesn't end there! Venture downstairs to the ground floor, where a complete game room awaits. Challenge your friends and family to a friendly game of ping pong or compete for high scores on the classic Pac-Man arcade machine. Try your hand at skeeball and relish in the nostalgia of an old-school arcade experience. The 50-inch smart TV offers entertainment options for movie nights or catching up on your favorite shows. Additionally, a comfortable sleeper sofa provides extra sleeping space if needed.

As you open the double doors in the game room, you'll step out onto a small landing that feels like your own private landing. Take a moment to breathe in the fresh air, bask in the sun, or simply soak in the breathtaking views of the lake. It's the perfect spot to unwind, connect with nature, and create lasting memories.

Whether you're seeking relaxation or adventure, this Airbnb offers the best of both worlds. With its rustic lake house feel, convenient access to the water, and a fantastic game room, it's an ideal getaway for families, groups of friends, or anyone looking for a serene lakeside retreat.

Summary: Our stay was overshadowed with multiple issues regarding the functionality of the house and the lack of action to address ongoing issues by the host. Upon arrival to the Lake house it was immediately clear that the WiFi signal was very weak and our youngest child’s tablet struggled to connect at all. This was told to the host leas than 24 hrs of arrival and was completely unresolved for the duration of our 7 day stay. There was “communication” from the “host” but was in nature apologetic lip service to appease us with zero solution at every turn. We (on our own) discovered that this property is running off their other larger VRBO property next door. This property runs on a booster for the WiFi. The lower game room space was totally unusable as a place to set up a movie for the kids as the TV never connected to the WiFi for a family movie or to stream music. The pots and pans had deep scratches to the point we bought a pan for us to use for our stay. It is advertised to accommodate 10 people. There were 5 forks in the kitchen drawer and minimal towels for our family of 6 and no separate towels for “beach” use. There was not one space for all 6 of us to sit together except the outdoor picnic table. The pool table fell apart and broke in half at the middle, unsupported by the hardware meant to secure it. Luckily, no one was injured. The handle from the door leading out from the game room fell off in my hand when trying to exit. Its falsely advertised as a home to accommodate 10.
