Practical Notes
Guest have access to entire house except garage.
Lake Access: The private lakefront parcel — with dock, cabana, swim mat, and kayaks — is just across the street from the house. It’s about a 20-step walk through a stone archway down to the water.
Road Crossing: Guests must cross a two-lane road to access the lake parcel. While not a highway, cars can move quickly, especially on weekends. Please use extra caution and closely supervise children and pets during crossings.
Mobility Considerations: The first-floor master suite with ensuite bath offers a step-free stay for guests with limited mobility.
The yard has a natural slope and stone steps leading to outdoor spaces and the lake area.
Safety & Convenience: Life vests, extra linens, cleaning supplies, and pet/kid gear provided

Summary: The house and hosts are absolutely incredible! Perfect for large groups or families. The basement adds a massive extra space for hangouts / activities / games without disrupting anyone asleep. House has everything you could want in a lake rental. The private lake area is great being in a cove, only downside of this property is the walk from the house to the steep steps going down to the water which would be tough for olde generations.
