NO Lake Access due to drought. Nestled in a quiet cove, this house offers a peaceful retreat for your next getaway or business workshop. Relax at the lounge on one of the four balconies, or watch the sunset down at the fire pit. Inside, enjoy the two living rooms or venture up the spiral stairs to the crow’s nest for a panoramic view. If you need to get some work done, take your pick between a dedicated office or the conference room with multiple whiteboards. The Lake House is the perfect spot for work and play.
The space:
Whether you are here for a work retreat or an executive getaway, “The Lake House” has several quiet areas for you to escape and recharge. In the morning, you will enjoy coffee from the Jura coffee machine as you watch fish jump across the surface of the lake. Feel free to relax in one of three outdoor patios or down on the private dock. If you feel productive, you can start the day with a workout in the CrossFit inspired full gym, which features a squat rack, free weights, Universal machine, and a Peloton.
When you feel inspired to get some work done, head up the spiral staircase for a view of the entire lake area. There you will feel inspired to write, create, and brainstorm, or you can use it as a recording area with a view.
On the main floor you will find the living room, fully stocked kitchen, and dining area, as well as a balcony. There are two bedrooms (one with a full bed and one with 2 twin beds), a full bathroom, and a half bath/laundry room combo. The main floor also has a dedicated office space with plenty of desk space, including an adjustable standing desk, a printer, 2 monitors, and access to your typical office supplies. Of course, there is wifi available throughout the house.
The primary suite has its own floor, and the bedroom has a queen bed and a chaise lounge. You will enjoy lake views from your bedroom, or you can escape to the small balcony for a full outdoor view. The crown jewel of the house is the master bathroom, which features a luxurious tub and a large shower with three showerheads.
If your co-workers or clients come to visit, you can surprise them by opening the secret doorway that leads to the conference area. There you will find a wall of whiteboards and a conference table to work together, with a mini bar, small fridge, and lounge area ready to support a full work day.
Should you choose to bring children, you can send them away to the kids playroom room, which is stocked full of art supplies, books, and toys, as well as a wall of white boards for fun doodling. If they like it there too much to leave, they can sleep on the futon that folds out into a single bed.
When you feel ready to end the day, you will discover the hammock in the backyard, and you can put a signature on the day by the fire pit and private dock. The lake temperature is always inviting, and there is a swim ladder to make it easier to get on and off the dock when you go swimming in the lake.
At night you can turn on the string lights in the backyard trees as well as on the decks off the main floor living room and the basement living room. They make for a magical experience once the sun has set.
Whether you stay at the house all day or escape to one of the many wonderful restaurants in the area, “The Lake House” offers a perfect place for a quiet escape for you, your family, or your clients.
Guest access:
The house is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood on a narrow road so parking along the street is discouraged because it's so narrow. But the garage will hold 2 cars and is available for your use, including the EV charger, and the driveway can park 6 cars. You have full use of the house, the yard, and the dock (except the 2 jet skis).
Other things to note - EVENTS:
The house is available for events, gatherings, and some types of parties. We've done several workshops and retreats at the house, which are a perfect fit for the space. The house accommodates a group of 15-20 daytime guests very well. We might consider allowing 25-30 people depending on the event, but 30 would be the maximum number allowed. (Please reach out and let us know your needs and we can discuss your options.)
We have some supplies on hand that help manage a workshop or retreat with ease. And we'd be happy to share information on how we've handled events successfully in the past.
If you're interested in doing any kind of event, you will need to be approved first. Please reach out to me before booking with the details so we can discuss what's possible. Without approval, any kind of event is prohibited and the house rule of a 10 guest maximum remains in effect.
Note: With event approval, you could be allowed to have up to 30 people at the house, but only during the daytime. Overnight guests at the house are limited to 10 people.
