Lake front home on the hill.

Please note: Effective September 15, 2026 AIRBNB has pushed their service fees and combined them with our rental fees. I did not raise my prices. They call it simplifying. I called this chaotic and unfair. Hello. Our house is available so that people can enjoy life. Fish, swim, or just hang out on the private pier, (Shared by owner). Beautiful sunsets. House has a large covered deck. Inside you will find a tastefully furnished house with all the comforts of home. TVs in all the rooms.
