About this property

Spectacular lake view! Cozy updated lake front house, with kayaks, Pet Friendly!

Welcome to our newly updated 3 BR/2 BA lakefront home in the quiet Bentwood neighborhood- perfect for your getaway with family or friends!

The open concept living space includes a beautiful modern kitchen with a dining table that seats 6 and a large island that seats 4, ideal for snack and meals. A high-chair is available as well if needed. The fully equipped kitchen opens to spacious family room with a large very comfortable sectional couch (does not recline), plus a separate recliner that looks straight out to the lake. The room is great for watching movies on DVD (over 50 provided fro all ages), Netlfix, Amazon and Hulu, (streaming service can be spotty due to the nature of the area) or playing the many board games we have provided with your family and friends. There is a cornhole set as well.

The 10 x 26 ft screened patio facing the lake is its own oasis. It has a dining table that seats up to 8. The comfy swivel chairs are a perfect place to enjoy the gas fire pit while you enjoying a cup of coffee or glass of wine looking over the serenity of the lake. There is also a large deck with a grill and lounge chairs for those who just want to sit out and soak up the sun. At the end of the day relax and enjoy the beautiful sunset over the lake from the deck, porch, or the bench swing below the porch.

You will find plenty of games and DVD's for family game night or movie night!

When you are fully relaxed and ready to turn in, choose from a queen bedroom with a private bathroom and its own separate entrance to the porch, a second bedroom with a queen bed and TV , or the 3rd bedroom which has a queen daybed with a queen trundle that sleep 4.

Enjoy outdoor activities such as swimming, boating, and fishing (4 poles), kayaking (2), water sports, or just floating the day away on the floats, lily pad, and multiple noodles we provide. There are several life jackets for your use as well.

Enjoy other activities like hiking, playing corn hole, taking a walk, run, or bike ride around our quiet neighborhood as you enjoy the view (bikes not provided.)

The state park is just a few miles away away with boat ramps, beaches, hiking, biking, miniature golf, and frisbee golf, and Grayson's Landing Restaurant, or grab a bite at Little Dave's Restaurant and Pizza (The Pizza is great and they deliver!) Axtel Recreational Marina is just a few miles away as well.

**Per Corp of Engineers there is no dock/slip use available. Nicks Boat Dock has very inexpensive slip rental ($15 a night) and has boat rental as well. The State Park also has boat rental. There are ramps at State Park just minutes away, and at Nicks Boat Dock to trailer and launch your boat. There is ample space to park a boat trailer at our house if you plan to trailer and launch daily***

**While we do offer free wifi and streaming services, please note due to the nature of the area that speeds vary depending on time of year, day of week and number of guests visiting the lake. Sometimes it's great while other days it's slower than molasses.**

Peaceful retreat on the lake

We visited during HS spring break which was a historically rainy time but was a welcomed get away with family. The place is located in a great location to enjoy the water, weather permitting. The house was very clean upon arrival helping make us feel welcomed. The screened in back porch is great to watch nature regardless of the weather. Upon recommendation of the host, we ate at Little Dave’s pizza which was great. Their menu is large enough to accommodate anyone. The dam is a very short drive away if you wanted to fish or hike. We plan to come back when the weather is more accommodating for water friendly activities.

Family reunion

This lake house was beyond perfect. Lots of different sitting areas. The kayaks and all the water toys were one of our favorites. Loved the corn hole game. It's a good little walk to the water but it has steps with rails all the way down. The kitchen was completed with everything we needed. Six of us stayed and five others came to visit for the whole day. More than enough room.. thank you Staci for being a great host, always available for any questions we might have. A five star to me and our whole group

Lovely house by the water

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was ready & waiting for us. Being the holidays, having a working kitchen was important & this kitchen & supplies were there. The walking paths around were fun, as was hunting for fossils at the water's edge.

Great time had by all!

We booked this property for an end-of-the-summer getaway. We had a ball! the house had all we needed. Beds were comfortable and plenty of living space. The screened in porch with the indoor fireplace was our main hangout. Even though the temp was HOT, the fans and woods made it plenty comfortable for us. There were lots of games and lake “toys.” The grandkids loved the lily pad. The only issue for us, grandma & grandpa, that is, was the number of steps to the lake. Otherwise, perfect for us! Staci, the owner, was very nice and responsive.

Trip before school starts back!!

We had such a great and relaxing time. The house is so pretty and nicely furnished! It was very quiet and calm. Our dogs loved to wonder around. The stairs to the dock definitely gave us a good workout. My son loved the dock and seeing all of the fish! It was a great time had by all. Staci was super accommodating and helpful with the millions of questions that I had :). We will definitely be back (with a boat!)

About the host

Hosted by stacie stivers

Host profile image
We have enjoyed coming to the lake so much with our friends and family over the years. We have had so many memories and have always wanted to have our own lake home, and finally took the plunge. We hope others enjoy it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

What makes this property unique

Our cozy waterfront house has lake views and beautiful pinewood ceiling throughout for that rustic feel. Enjoy the lake just down the steps of our backyard. Rent a boat and a slip at Nicks boat dock. Enjoy our kayaks, floats, noodles, fishing poles and we have plenty of life jackets as well Fish or swim off our dock that is equipped with a dock ladder. Enjoy the views from the deck, the porch, or the rustic swing that hangs below the porch. Take walks or bike rides around our quiet neighborhood of Bentwood. On those chilly nights enjoy the gas fire pit on the porch without having to mess with firewood- just turn it on and enjoy!
