Public boat slips are available at the nearby Cove waterfront restaurant.

When you're not making the most of your time out on the water, you can kick back on the deck for some sunny outdoor leisure. A gas grill and a firepit are also on hand for a backyard fish fry or a s'mores session.

The home itself boasts two upstairs primary suites, each equipped with a full en suite bathroom. In the detached downstairs, two bunk bedrooms and a game room provide plenty of family-friendly fun and comfort. The full kitchen is equipped with all the major appliances and accessories to handle all your home cooking needs.

Family Fun
We had a wonderful 5 night/6 day stay here at Compass Lake visiting family. Wish we could’ve stayed longer! It was the perfect location for our family of 6. The only thing I didn’t care for was the detached basement. I must’ve missed that it had its own entrance in the listing, as my children had planned to sleep in the bunk beds downstairs. I just didn’t feel good about my littles being separated completely from us. The main floor is very roomy and was perfect for what we needed. The view and sunsets were beautiful and the dock was our favorite hang out! We used the detached basement for family to stay with us so it all worked out in the end! I did not enjoy conversing with Vacasa as it was always with a new person and they would not allow early check in. However, Benjamin, one of the owners who was the local host for us, was a huge help and allowed us to check in early and check out late. This really was a big blessing to us having driven all night from Michigan and having littles. THANK YOU! We most definitely will be back! 🌴☀️

Relaxing Lake House
We are extending our family vacation stay for several more weeks because we love it here and don't want to leave! The sunsets are absolutely gorgeous right out the back door overlooking the lake. The community is friendly and The Cove Restaurant close by has great food. The owner is super nice and has gone out of his way to be helpful.

Great location
The house was really nice and comfortable. The lake view was amazing and the lake was very nice for boat rides around the lake. The host was fast to reply when we text. We are looking forward to staying again.
