A high chair and pack 'n play are available.

This home was originally built with a traditional 1st floor master bedroom in mind. However, we made an adjustment turning it into a game room. With this modification, it allows the full bathroom to be available for all guests. The game room has a full size poker table, Smart TV with a blue-ray DVD player and an assortment of DVDs. We have also stocked the closet with board games and puzzles.

We have 3-bedrooms (all with queen size beds) located on the 2nd floor. There is a spacious bonus sleeping area off of the 2nd bedroom. This bonus room has 2-twin beds, a rollaway twin bed, plus a twin bed with a twin size trundle. This configuration makes for a nice family suite.

The family room has an AMAZING view of Dake Lake. Beautiful cherrywood bookcases flank the gas log fireplace. With a simple touch of the remote, the fireplace will turn on offering a warm ambience. 65" flat screen Smart TV with room darkening curtains provide a relaxing atmosphere.

The kitchen is fully stocked with the usual suspects--electric oven/glass stove top burners, top freezer/bottom refrigerator, dishwasher, garbage disposal, countertop microwave. We have added a couple of fun items--an IKITCH ice maker and a designated coffee/tea/hot cocoa area--coffee pot/single serve, stove top kettle, electric kettle, hot cocoa machine (YES, a machine!!) along with various sweeteners, non-dairy creamers, coffees and teas. Also, plenty of platters and items for your entertaining needs. The kitchen eating area can seat (6) and has picture windows with the lake view.

The separate dining room has seating for (6) with a reading nook by the window. We have a Cooper's Hawk Grapevine Decanter available for the wine connoisseurs or for the rest of us that just like gadgets. As wine is poured into the decanter it wraps around the glass bubble, aerating the wine and releasing the bouquet. The wine flows through a filter and then into the glass cone where it can be dispensed with ease. For times when the gang wants to eat together, we also provide a foldable banquet table with (8) folding chairs in the garage.

In the lower level, there are 2-bedrooms; one with a queen size bed, the other with 2-sets of bunk beds (sleeps 4 people under 100 lbs).
