About this house rental

Nestled along the water line near the end of a secluded dead end road you`ll find the cozy cottage, Gus`s Getaway.
A large yard and lake views greet you as you pull down the driveway to this cabin. As you enter the side door you`ll notice the open layout and find yourself enjoying oversized leather living room furniture, a decorative fireplace, and beautiful views - providing a `home away from home` feeling.

As you enter this pet-friendly 3 bedroom, 2 bath home, you will immediately notice the breathtaking views of the lake through three sets of patio doors overlooking the lake from the dining and living areas, spanning the entire front of the home. This vista is especially spectacular during sunset. Step outside onto the roomy deck and breathe in the fresh lake air while relaxing around the table or preparing a meal on the gas grill.

The kitchen, with full size appliances, is fully stocked with what is needed to prepare and enjoy a meal, and is found immediately inside the entrance and directly off the open plan dining area, which offers seating for six.

The spacious living area is directly off the dining area, making it easy for your group to spend quality time together. Here you will find comfy armchairs and a large sofa perfectly positioned to enjoy the gorgeous scenery.

Just off the living areas find a shared full bathroom with a shower/tub combo. Across the hall from the bathroom are two bedrooms, one offering two sets of twin bunk beds and one offering a queen bed. The master has a king size bed with a full bath en suite.

Big dock great for fishing or sunbathing. Guests have use of the floater. The slips will not be raised or lowered for reservations.

The location was perfect, the dock was amazing. The house was clean comfortable and all we needed. The flat top griddle was so much fun too.The lower level was not accessible from the house, which was a shame. And we found a dead bat in the bathroom when we checked in. Surprised the cleaning crew missed this considering how clean the whole hoarse was.I would recommend this home, as long as you realize the laundry is a separate level accessed from outside.
