Lakeside Getaway ★ 2 King Beds ★ Chain O Lakes

Outdoor enthusiasts will be delighted with this 2 bedroom lake home retreat that sleeps 6. The fall colors, hiking, and nature setting is especially breathtaking this time of year. Walk down to the lake to enjoy boating, swimming, fishing, and more. Experience all the comforts of home in this newly remodeled lake home desirably located on Lippincott Point. Perfect for family reunions, gathering with friends by the lakeside fire pit, boating “the chain” and all that lake life has to offer!

The space
We always have the place professionally cleaned between guests, but now our cleaning team is paying special attention to sanitizing commonly touched areas such as door knobs, light switches and remotes.

The area by the lake front where the fire pits and pier are located is a shared area with the four short term rental units that are on the property. There is a small neighborhood park right next to the property that has a sandy beach that is good for swimming. We highly recommend hard bottom swim socks or old gym shoes when swimming in the lake.

There are four adult sized kayaks and two kid sized kayaks down by the lake front. They are free to use for all the guests at the property... we ask that everyone share boat time with each other! Please wear the provided life jackets when going out in the kayaks.

Tasteful furnishings and lake home inspired decor make the home feel warm and inviting. Modern conveniences like stainless appliances and expansive countertop space provide the convenience you need in your home-away-from-home.

Make yourself comfortable in the welcoming living area, where you’ll find a lavish new sofa set in front of a large flat-screen TV. For your viewing pleasure, watch your favorite movies or local channel programming on YouTube TV. Netflix, Hulu, and Prime are conveniently accessible as well. Need to get some work done? Feel free to utilize the dedicated high-speed WiFi.

Just off of the living room you’ll be delighted with the newly remodeled kitchen that comes fully equipped with new stainless refrigerator and freezer, including a full suite of new appliances. Enjoy home cooked meals in a well-lit dining table beautifully set for 6. Feel free to fire-up the gas grill and enjoy some home-cooked cuisine out on the comfortably furnished deck with seating for 6. The deck has solar lights to automatically light your way in the evening.

Ideal for the whole family, this well-outfitted lake home comfortably accommodates 6 guests, including 2 king beds. What’s more, the sofa is a sleeper with super comfy memory foam. Tastefully decorated with bright new furnishings you’ll be charmed no matter which of the 2 bedrooms you choose to fall into a peaceful slumber.

Pack lightly when you travel to this lake home retreat, as you'll be able to refresh your laundry in the washer and dryer. No need to fumble with keys and lock boxes as this rental is equipped with quick & easy keyless entry.

Other things to note
The fall colors, hiking, and nature setting is especially breathtaking this time of year. Wilmot mountain is just minutes away - an outdoor enthusiasts must do! Includes skiing, snowboarding, and even snow tubing. The fire pit is especially endulgent on refreshingly cool evenings!

Our home is extensively sanitized between stays. Come and enjoy!

Only minutes to Blarneys Island and Lakeside Restaurants on the "Chain-O-Lakes” from our Pier!

Lake House on Fox Lake
The cottage was fabulous. Everything we needed was there. Nicely decorated & we felt welcomed. It was wonderful having family members by the lake & share time at a fire pit. Our relatives live locally & it was a nice place to meet and chat. The Owner happened to pass by and she was lovely. We highly recommend this lake house to others.

Nice & Tranquil Location - Note There are 4 Units
We traveled in for a wedding from AZ and booked this location to be right off the Fox Lake, enjoy some quiet time, eat good food and spend the day/night fishing with a fire. While this was the case for 90% of our stay - we did not realize that the home we were staying in was one of four units selected. Luckily, we received the last home before the lake, which was nice - but we did not anticipate sharing any amenities given the description of the property. Everyone in the other three units were very nice and we enjoyed their company; we just felt a bit misled on the listing description. Please keep this in mind when booking your stay. Otherwise, it was a great time. Close to food, bars, and obviously ideal for fishing/boating. The only reason why I’m giving it 4 stars is due to the description and how we felt misled.

Labor Day weekend
Cottage is located on a small peninsula. There are many extras on site such as sand toys, corn hole boards, fire pits, propane grill, tricycles, kayaks and life jackets. Knowing all of this ahead of time would have reduced our packing. The cottage was extremely clean and had a good amount of dishes, utensils, cookware, grilling needs etc. Very pleased.

Overall excellent. It got a little warm at night. Afew degrees cooler at night on the AC would be good. The soap bars didn't lather very well in the shower. Glad we brought our own. The dock was great to have for our boat.

Our family returned to stay at bungalow number four, for the third summer in a row. Our family loves this place! It is always so clean and tidy, and it has everything family of six needs for a fun vacation getaway. Kayaks, fishing, swimming, floating, barbecue pit, bonfire… It just has everything! Jim and Diane are so wonderful and helpful to, they come by to make sure that everything is in order for you. We even got to meet the owner Mark Dennis! He was a very nice man, and he too made sure that we had a wonderful comfortable stay. We surely look forward to coming back again, probably next June!

The owners put a huge emphasis on providing the essentials people may need while away from home like laundry soap pods, linens, towels, q-tips, as even make-up removal cloths. We will most def be back.

Wonderful!!!
This property is as if your favorite relative let you stay at their lakefront property and everything you could want or need was there. The beds were so comfortable, the sheets so soft, the house was so clean and well-appointed. It was just glorious. I have a friend in the area that I visit about once a year and I will be sure to book this property again. The views breathtaking! You can see all the love and care the owners put into it and it feels like a beautiful seconds home. Thank you for a most excellent vacation! xo
