Sleeps 10: two king bedrooms, a queen bedroom and a bunk room with two bunk beds, plus a rec room with a big sofa pit.

Tucked among towering fir trees, the fully remodeled interior blends warm Nordic simplicity with relaxed coastal style: natural pine, soft neutral furnishings and oversized windows. Relax by the wood-burning stove, cook a family meal in the modern matte-black kitchen, then gather around the fire pit on the wraparound deck and listen to the wind in the trees. Three stories give everyone their own space.

Such a cool location

Beautiful place! Loved the lake and being among the trees. Such a cool location, definitely a bit off the beaten path, but that makes it special. It's an amazing home, nice and modern with lovely views. Our family really enjoyed this stay, thanks for having us!”
