About this house rental
This charming lake house is the perfect place to relax and unwind. Located in the scenic Shawneeland, away from the busy life of Washington DC, this property offers stunning views of the lake and plenty of space to enjoy indoors or even outdoors. Complete serenity, privacy, and quiet enjoyment with modern amenities yet vintage elements still permeate and lend to the charm of the home, with everything updated with a luxurious finish.
The house features 2 sunrooms with floor-to-ceiling windows to gaze out of. Both sunrooms lead out to huge decks. Each bathroom is designed in elegant black and white, with jetted shower panels with six different modes and designer faucets.
You can't help but be wowed by the 14ft vaulted wood ceiling that is original to the house, with twinkling bird-like lights that float throughout the house to create an amazing lighting effect. Then the clever long white 11ft countertop that is part of the stair design goes to the lower level. The countertop flows from the kitchen along the living space, contributing to the open floor plan of the house. At the end is a cozy corner to read or simply relax.
The first level boasts a sophisticated black and white kitchen with a quartz countertop and stainless steel appliances, including a refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, electric stove, garbage disposal, air fryer, and coffee maker with an elegant modern faucet.
To further entertain yourself, feel free to wander downstairs and take advantage of the vintage bar or sit on the bar stools and play a round of chess or checkers. Or enter the inner lounge area to enjoy the fireplace. The lower level is naturally cooler, so for those who enjoy a cooler space, this is for you.
The space
A tranquil haven, true relaxation you will experience as you sit in the sunrooms and gaze out the floor-to-ceiling windows. It brings my 7-year-old autistic daughter tremendous calm and happiness, and I expect it will do the same for you, too. See you soon.
The neighborhood beach is only a 5-10 minute walk away. The lakehouse shares the same shoreline. (NOTE:The beach is now not usable)
However, The Cove Campground is also 10 minutes away, which you can also visit. They offer Camping - Swimming - Hiking - Fishing - Boating - Cabins - Hot Showers - Target Range
The city is only 15 min drive away, all nicely paved roads, and easy access.
Other things to note
The lake is currently receding, and the county plans to repair people still fish, but may not be ideal for swimming at this time.

6 / 10Average·Oct 2023
First, the positive: the sunrooms are beautiful, with a nice view of a lake that is half empty. Neighborhood and closeness to Tuscarora trails and old town Winchester. The host responded fast to a problem with door lock.
The negatives: the day before going I was informed that one of the bathrooms "had a problem" and they could not fix it on time. There was no offer to reduce the rate of the house given that we were given a house with 3 bedrooms with just one bathroom. When we got there, what I found was that the remodeled house was not completed, with the downstairs bathroom having no shower floor, the toilet not installed. Many other signs of a rushed job, not a finished product ready for this high rental price!
The bedrooms are very small, have only 1 night table, with no night lamps. There are no dressers, closets, or one drawer in the entire house to put clothes away; if you leave the bags on the floor, you need to step over them to get out of bed. Mattresses are very soft like a waterbed not fully filled. Could not sleep. Not luxurious: polyester sheets and towels, plastic glassware, silverware only for 4 people in a house that "sleeps 10". No inviting sitting place, old, dirty random couches with no tables. Only 4 chairs on the bar for dining!
A safety and privacy issue: no blinds or curtains in the bedroom or anywhere, including the bedroom's window with the queen bed facing the front and street. The last day we found a camera in the house! There goes your privacy!
