About this house rental

Welcome to Sunrise Cove, your ideal retreat for an unforgettable vacation with your extended family. Situated on the picturesque west side of Petenwell Lake, this spacious waterfront property offers everything you need for a relaxing and memorable getaway. Wake up to breathtaking views of Petenwell Lake from the full deck facing the water. Whether you're sipping your morning coffee or watching the sun set over the horizon, the beauty of the lake is sure to inspire awe and wonder.




Feel free to enjoy the clean, sandy beach directly in front of the home—perfect for launching your kayak, sunbathing, and swimming. You’ll also have access to the community pier just a short walk from the backyard, great for fishing or jumping in for a swim. You may tie off your boat on the edge during the day, but long-term or overnight docking is not allowed.

If you are bringing your own watercraft or renting locally, please plan accordingly, as overnight docking is not permitted anywhere on Lake Petenwell. You will need to trailer your watercraft each evening. The property has plenty of space for trailers, and the nearest boat launch is just minutes away.

Please also note that the shoreline is owned by the local power company, and we must follow their regulations. This includes removing all items such as toys, chairs, and kayaks from the beach or shoreline each night and bringing them back up to the house.

Thanks so much for your understanding—we hope you have a fantastic stay and enjoy everything the lake has to offer!



Pontoon Rentals:
If you’d like to enjoy a day on the water, pontoons are available to rent at The Lure (also Barnum Bay Marina, just across the lake) for $400/full day or $250/half day, plus gas. Advance arrangements are recommended — you can learn more here:

Barnum Bay Marina.

Sunrise Cove is a spacious 3,500 sq. ft. lakefront retreat with 240 feet of shoreline on beautiful Lake Petenwell. Nestled on two acres of towering pines and open yard, this home offers the privacy and peace you’re seeking while still being close to lake adventures. Just steps away, you’ll find a sandy cove in front of the home—accessible by ladder from the pier next door—while a small private beach and boat launch are only a short walk up the road. During the day, boats can be anchored in the cove, making it easy to come and go on the water, though they must be removed at night. Sunrise Cove sits in an ideal location on the lake, near Wilderness Park, where nature and recreation blend perfectly.

Outdoors, there’s plenty to enjoy. Play a lively game of sand volleyball or horseshoes before winding down in the evening around the groomed fire pit. As night falls, the wide-open skies make for incredible stargazing while the fire’s glow creates the perfect setting for sharing stories and making memories.

Inside, the home is designed with gatherings in mind. The open-concept layout features a great room with soaring cathedral ceilings that combine the living room, dining room, and kitchen into one inviting space. Trapezoid windows and French doors stretch across the lakeside wall, filling the home with natural light and breathtaking views of the water. The stone fireplace and entertainment area make the living room a cozy spot to unwind, while the extra-large dining table ensures there’s room for everyone to enjoy meals together. The kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances, offering both style and functionality for your stay.

With eight bedrooms and three bathrooms, Sunrise Cove is perfect for hosting family reunions, group getaways, or multi-family vacations. The master bedroom overlooks the lake and includes its own private bath. Another bath is conveniently located off the main living area, while the lower level bedrooms share a spacious bath and laundry area. Downstairs, you’ll also find a den with lake views, offering another place to relax or gather. Ceramic and brick tile flooring throughout the great room is balanced with cozy carpet in the center, and central air keeps the home comfortable year-round.

Two oversized decks expand your living space outdoors. The lakeside deck spans the entire length of the home, offering the perfect spot for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or simply taking in the views. The second deck overlooks the front drive and wooded setting, giving you another peaceful retreat.

Sunrise Cove isn’t just a home—it’s a place where lake life shines. Whether you’re out boating, playing games in the yard, or enjoying the quiet of the pines, this home gives you the best of both relaxation and recreation.

Pet Friendly: Dogs are welcome with a $150 fee per pet, per stay.

📌 Special Offer: Guests who book Sunrise Cove through VRBO between October 1 and May 1 will receive 20% off the nightly rate. The discount will be applied directly with the host once your reservation is made.

Our family stayed at Sunrise Cove for a long winter weekend, and it couldn’t have been a better getaway. It snowed during our stay, which made the whole property feel peaceful, cozy, and exactly what we hoped for in a winter trip.The best part of this home is the space inside. The layout is wide open, warm, and incredibly inviting — perfect for a large group. The great room with its high ceilings and stone fireplace became our main gathering place for cooking, hanging out, watching football, and enjoying family time. We’re big on puzzles, so the large dining table was absolutely perfect for spreading everything out without getting in the way of meals or other activities.The bedrooms were comfortable, the home was spotless, and everything felt well-maintained and thoughtfully prepared for guests. Even with multiple families and kids, the house handled all of us easily and never felt cramped.The hosts were fantastic — friendly, responsive, and very easy to work with, which made the entire experience smooth from start to finish.Sunrise Cove was exactly what we needed for a relaxing and memorable winter stay. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it for any multi-family vacation or group gathering.

Wonderful experience second year in a row! We have discussed how much we like being here and plan to make it the destination of our friend gathering every year!

Great house, lots of room, well appointed and supplied. Comfortably accommodated 16 people and a dog.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Aug 2024
The house was nice, well stocked, and roomy. The property and lake access wasn't as described. There was no way to anchor a boat in the cove and no way for kids to access the cove. There wasn't much of a view of the lake. I suggest adding updated pictures of the trees with leaves. We wouldn’t stay here again due to lake, but the house was great for a large group. I suggest having some kitchen cabinets empty so guest can place dry goods in. The ice maker was super nice.
