Juniper Hideaway
Juniper Point Airbnb's were established in 2017, making us the original Airbnb experience on Juniper Point. Our community is small, private, and home to only a handful of residents- each blessed with stunning lake and mountain views, but very few with direct beach access. That's what makes us different. At Juniper Hideaway, you have direct beach access through our sister Airbnb Juniper Point. Our standards have set the benchmark for the area and are often imitated but never matched. 🌻
