About this property

Escape to The House on Round! Now with no cleaning fees!

Enjoy lake life on a quiet bay of one of Hayward's premier lakes. The bay is home to loons, bald eagles, owls, deer, otters, ducks, and frogs as well as an occasional bear. Beyond the bay, Round Lake is renowned for boating, fishing, and swimming (NOTE: The shoreline in front of the house is not good for swimming). Take one of our provided kayaks (there's 2 of them) and make your way to the nearby sandbar or across the lake to the island to swim, picnic, and play.

Our private chalet features 3 bedrooms (each with its own private veranda) and 3.5 bathrooms, a 3-season screen porch, dining room, living room, and a family room. There is ample space for 10+ guests.

Prepare your meals in the fully stocked kitchen or cook on the gas grill and dine on the wrap-around deck. Enjoy the main floor fireplace (wood provided), the family room gas fireplace, and the fire pit in the expansive yard.

Modern necessities are also provided such as wifi access, 2 smart TVs for your gaming system or streaming services, central air, and a full-size washer and dryer at no extra charge.

There is space at the dock for one additional boat if you wish to bring one and a public boat launch is close by. We also have 2 kayaks for use by all

A Note About Dogs:
We LOVE dogs and we want our guests to enjoy their vacation with the whole family, including the furry members :-) Up to two dogs are allowed with prior approval- an additional fee applies. That being said, please be mindful of whether our home is appropriate for your dog(s).

We may not be the vacation rental for you if your dog(s):
*Consider barking to be a favorite pastime;
*Chew things other than bones;
*Cannot bear to be on a tie-out;
*Use the house as a bathroom.

We ask that your dogs be supervised when at the house and crated when you are not (One large crate is available at the cabin). We provide a long suspended lead in the front yard, but please do not leave him/her out if you are not on the property. Also, it should not need to be said (but unfortunately needs to be, as we have had guests leave enough surprises for us), but PLEASE pick up after your dogs!! It is NOT the responsibility of our cleaners.

Wonderful Getaway
First and foremost, the host was extremely helpful. They stayed in contact throughout the process and were quick to respond to questions before and during the stay. The property was beautiful. It was extremely clean and well cared for. While there are neighbors, you wouldn’t know it. It was quiet and peaceful the entire day. The perfect relaxing getaway location. There is a very nice level side yard that is perfect for yard games.

Awesome Property
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at this property. Plenty of room to spread out and had everything we needed right down to chairs to use around the bonfire. It was nice to have 2 refrigerators so we could store extra beverages in one and keep the food in the other. Eliminated the need for coolers. Able to set up a yard game next to the deck in the backyard. Enjoyed tooling around the lakes in the kayaks that were provided. Great views! Host quick to respond to any questions or concerns.

Hayward Bliss!
Had a perfect “Up North” getaway with the family. The lake home & views were gorgeous and exactly as advertised. Having the pontoon boat on site and ready upon arrival was very convenient too! Great trip!

About the host

Hosted by Jesse D.

Host profile image
Born and raised in Hayward. My passion is the enjoyment and satisfaction of my guests and work tirelessly to deliver on that each and every time. The home was my father's house and he built it with the direct intent of creating good times and memories. It's an honor to him and to the place itself to have you come stay, forget about the day-to-day, and make new memories of your own, enriching the legacy of this very special place.

Why they chose this property

As I mentioned, this was my father's house before he passed and he didn't just live here, he designed, built and truly made the place come to life. He was a developer in Hayward for over 30 years and knew what it was to have a real love for what Hayward can deliver and built his home accordingly. The place is fully furnished with not only the appropriate amenities for the area, but also with my father's collection of hunting and fishing trophies from all over North America. He was a real sportsman and a lover of the outdoors, that influence truly brings the home to life.

What makes this property unique

The home sits on Round Lake, just East of Hayward. Round Lake is THE premier lake in the area for boating, water-skiing, fishing, skiing, snowmobiling and many other activities. There are 2 restaurants that can be reached by boat that both have piers for parking. Additionally, the surrounding area is absolutely rich with wildlife. You will see deer, racoons, piles of squirrels/chipmunks, and maybe even some bears (in the summertime). The dining room just off the kitchen is not only great for having meals, but the walls are deeply saturated in laughter and good times. For those that love to stay up late, drink, and be merry, rest assured you've found the spot to do it.
