About this property
A serene lake house to escape the day-to-day!
Want that 'Ahh' feeling that only comes from kicking back by the lake? This is just the right place to give you that: beautiful views, your own private beach and dock, abundant wildlife, fishing, boating, swimming and more! Enjoy grilling on the deck, have a meal and drinks by the fire, take in the peaceful views and sounds. And when it gets dark, cozy up by the fire place, or enjoy a game of ping-pong, darts, board games, or stream your favorite show. Then enjoy a restful sleep in a comfy bed.

About the host
Hosted by Ivars Ivanov
My wife and I and our two kids love spending time by the lake. Our son loves fishing, our daughter enjoys playing in the sand and swimming. Kayaking is my personal favorite kind of "therapy". It makes us happy to offer our guests an opportunity to enjoy the lake life as we do.
Why they chose this property
If you really want to feel like you're on vacation without traveling thousands of miles, our lake house offers that sense of a true getaway from the day-to-day. The house itself is very inviting and comfortable. Step outside and you're on an expansive deck overlooking a beautiful lake. Throw some burgers on the grill, enjoy a campfire, have a meal at water's edge with friends and family. Jump on the paddle board or the canoe or two kayaks and explore the lake with its abundant wildlife and scenery. Enjoy a game of ping-pong or darts in the game room or watch your favorite show while relaxing in front of a fireplace.
