About this property

Pine Lake Retreat- sparkling hot tub! Lakeside house with sandy beach lakefront!

Our Pine Lake Retreat offers the ultimate location for lakefront relaxation! Enjoy our 60’ of sandy lakefront on Pine Lake 1, an excellent spot for swimming on summer days, and enjoy relaxing in the professionally maintained hot tub overlooking the lake! Pine Lake is a 660 acre all-sports lake that includes 4 total lakes, all connected, and is perfect to explore by boat! Pine Lake features a spectacular 4th of July fireworks show each summer and is a favorite spot for fishing tournaments as well! Our main house offers 2 bedrooms with one King sized bed and one queen sized bed. For additional sleeping space, we have a guest bunk-room just steps away from the front door (it is not directly connected to the house but very close by). This additional sleeping space offers 2 twin-over-full bunk beds and has heat and air conditioning. Please Note: we close the bunk-room during the Winter months (November 1 through April 1). If you will need to use the bunk room during the winter, please just let us know when you book your stay- we charge an additional $25 per night for use of the bunk-room in the off-season. For our youngest guests, we provide a pack & play upon request. Please note: the pack & play must be reserved when booking your reservation to ensure availability.

The main house features an open-flow from the kitchen to the dining area to the living room with a great view of the lake the moment you enter! The living and dining rooms offer plenty of seating for guests and a cozy gas log fireplace. The large deck overlooking the lake offers plenty of space to entertain and relax. We offer a comfortable outdoor sofa to lounge and relax, porch swings, an outdoor gas fire table, Blackstone grill, a dining table, a fire pit by the water, and a 6-person hot tub with a gorgeous view of the lake! Our hot tub is professionally maintained and is open year-round.

We provide 2 single person kayaks and 1 two-person kayak for your enjoyment. If you would like to explore the lake even further, pontoon boat rental is available for a separate cost. Please reach out to us for additional information regarding renting the pontoon boat.

In the winter time Pine Lake is very popular for ice fishing and snowmobiling, and also offers great ice skating! For the ski/snowboard/snow tubing enthusiast, there are a few different ski hills just a small drive away as well! Our hot tub is also open in the winter!

After spending the day on the lake, enjoy a relaxing soak in the hot tub overlooking the lake and wind down in the cozy oasis that we have created on the deck!

We are equipped with an on demand whole house generator, to ensure our guests are able to fully enjoy their vacation even when sporadic power outages happen in the winter (due to snow or ice) and in the spring/summer months (due to high wind or storms).

We would like our guests to please note that there is a set of stairs from our driveway leading down to the house. If you wish to avoid using stairs many of our guests use the grassy area along the side of the stairs to walk down to the main house.

Please note: We have a motion-activated security camera light on the house near the front door.

The hot tub was sparkling, and lovely! The sheets, floors, counters, bathroom, and general spaces were clean and everything smelled nice. The best part is the deck. Lots of places to sit and people watch, or have coffee in the morning, and drinks at night as you're right on the water. Great communication, easy check in/out!

My family of four stayed here for a week in August. This was our first time renting on Pine lake and we enjoyed our stay very much. The house was well equipped with everything we needed. I absolutely loved the back deck area with the swinging chairs, hot tub, and fire table. We used all three while we were there. I could see how this would be a cozy place to be in the winter as well. We also use the Blackstone grill, which was really convenient. We rented their pontoon and really enjoyed fishing with the boat. We used the kayaks a lot as well. Owners responded to communication quickly. we had one issue while we were staying here, but owners responded immediately and issue was addressed. Would definitely stay here again in the future!

Wonderful week at the lake!

What a great week!! We choose to rent the pontoon (which was very nice!) it really made the week. We cruised, anchored and swam, fished, it was so fun. The cottage is quaint and with the bunk room it was the perfect amount of space for our family and parents.

Relaxing Getaway

The perfect spot on the water with everything you need to relax. The house is clean and open and comfortable. The deck is perfect with hanging chairs to enjoy the views and a hot tub to relax at night. The area is quiet and away from it all.

Just Right!

A very nice cottage and a perfect size for my family! The bunkhouse was great for my three granddaughters and me. We LOVED the hot tub and the deck overlooking the lake. Had SO MUCH fun. Just a couple negatives- mattress in the smaller bedroom probably needs replacing, quite uncomfortable. We could not get the indoor fireplace to light.

Perfect Week

The Pine Lake Retreat was wonderful for the entire week we stayed there. The host Andrew was very nice and accommodating. The house was very clean and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook our favorite meals. The hot tub was clean and very relaxing. The fishing was great and we caught some of the biggest bass right off the end of the doc. We would like stay at the cottage again in the near future. Thank You Andrew

family weekend

We had a great time hanging out at this house. My 3 sons 28-32, 2 grandkids 2 and under and 3 dogs. The lay out was great, and the bunk room worked out well. The lake was beautiful and they caught sever bass and Pike. The only suggestion I would make is to not have the plug in air- fresheners. The scent was too strong and bothered my allergies. ( it was easy enough to put them in the box on the deck for the weekend. ) My kids really liked the house and we hope we can make it back again.

What a Spectacular View!!!

Overall a wonderful weekend stay! Mom needs assistance walking and the kind neighbors allowed us to pull in closer to the home, so she could easily get inside! It was rainy but oh so beautiful! The hot tub was wonderful for the 20 minutes we were in it! We loved the deck and we used the three blankets left by the slider! Even opened the wine left for us! The host was very quick with answers to our questions. We enjoyed water color painting at the large dining room table and reading on the deck with blankets.

Cutest little home by the lake!

Had a great birthday weekend here with a couple of friends and my husband. The view from the deck is gorgeous and the fancy hot tub was definitely the highlight of our trip! Very comfortable little place with all of the homely comforts you need while away in a newly renovated and updated space. If you go with friends, make sure you’re comfortable all sharing a single bathroom and toilet cos that’s all there is. Beds were comfortable and there’s plenty of space to unpack and get organized. There is not much to do there other than relax, eat, drink and soak in the hot tub - which is exactly what we were after! Andrew and his wife were very responsive and helpful and even called to talk us through getting the fireplace going. Would LOVE to go back in summer.

Beautiful location but amenities are lacking

Beautiful location right on the lake. Unfortunately many of the amenities advertised do not work properly such as outdoor and indoor fireplaces and cable/internet. We also found the kitchen table cushions to be dirty. My concerns were brought to the attention of the owner& they said they were unaware. However looking back I do see previous reviews mentioning my same concerns that were not ever addressed. No one is ever doing a walk through of the property inside and out prior to guests staying here. We hope they fix the broken hot tub cover and the cracked pieces of wood holding the outdoor swings.
