About this property

Lake View Retreat Loaded For Fun, with STUNNING Views!

This private peninsula lakefront property isn’t just where you stay during your vacation, it IS your vacation! On-site fishing, boating, swimming, watersports, a game room, nearby restaurants and shopping, and absolutely gorgeous lake views. There is no end to the activities and fun already at this spacious home, and most everything you need for a great stay is already here.

With lake on three sides you get both sunrise and sunset over the water. A private boat ramp, over-water dock with patio table, covered boat slip, kayaks, canoe, paddle boat, jon boat, tubes, water skis, knee board and wakeboard are all here for you to enjoy for free. Bring your own boat or watercraft if you like or rent our on-site hybrid deck boat. With four connected lakes there is lots to explore, plus you can visit the downtown area or a nearby restaurant by boat.

This 5000 sq.ft. home is handicapped-accessible and has 5 bedrooms (three of them en-suites), 4 bathrooms plus 3 additional sleeping areas for up to 22 guests. All bedding is provided. Dual fireplaces, full laundry, a spacious family room with 270 degree lake views and a pool table, dart board, table-top suffleboard and wide-screen TV. There are board games, outdoor games and activities for kids all on site too. If you are bringing your dog(s) there is a huge shady fenced-in area lakeside where they can run freely.

The kitchen is huge and comes with plenty of pots, pans, cups, mugs, dual coffee makers, double oven and Jenn-Air stove with built-in grill and griddle. Pretty much everything you need is there. An outdoor propane BBQ grill is also on site.

The second-floor master suite is huge and French doors open up to the balcony overlooking the lake to the north and east. The sunrises there are often breathtaking! Enjoy your coffee up on the balcony or take the stairs down to the patio area. There is lots of lakeside seating, and evenings by the lakeside fire pit bring everyone together!

There is a 20 ft hybrid deck boat available for rent with cushioned seating for 9-10. Local attractions include the quaint downtown Inverness area with shopping, antiques, parks, restaurants and more. A 1/3 mile oval racetrack is in town, as well as the county fairgrounds with various events throughout the year. Airboat rides are nearby, scenic bike trail too just minutes from the property. Everything is within a 3-12 minute drive so although you have a tranquil spot on the lake, the entire town is conveniently close and easily accessible.

Everything was as advertised or better. Mark was always available and very helpful. The house and property was well maintained. The only 1 small issue was the grass and weeds left on back patio and firepit area. As a resident of Florida I know that storms come up fast this time of year. the yard was well mowed before our arrival, but was not weeded and blown clean. I did bring it up to Mark, so he would be able to address it with his landscaper. Still a 5 star rental. Being able to use the deck boat on property was awesome. there is also a boat ramp on property which is seldom found. The town of Inverness is beautiful and everything is very close by. Next time we will plan a longer stay. Thank you for the great stay and beautiful memories!!

Great Lake vacation

The property was easy to find, had everything perfectly labeled and had every type of kitchen appliance you would need. Had a great grill for cookouts plus a fire pit for s’mores. Very easy boat access, and a perfect location. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a nice relaxing place to fish, boat and get away from it all

Relaxing by the Lake

This lake front house was the perfect family getaway. The house had plenty of space for our big group and was well stocked with house hold items. We really enjoyed the views from the deck, using the fire pit at night and kayaking on the lake. The hosts were very attentive and answered any questions we had promptly. We would definitely stay here again!

Book Club Retreat

This home was perfect for our retreat, in fact this is our second stay here. The kitchen has everything anyone would need. The rooms are large and comfortable. The views, especially the sunsets are spectacular. Kayaks and canoes and other water vehicles are available and we enjoyed them. There are plenty of gathering spots, in and out. The hosts are very easy to work with. Inverness offers many opportunities for hiking and the town is lovely. We hope to return - what better recommendation could there be?

Thanksgiving gathering

The house was wonderful, spacious, well stocked and the location superb. One small issue was that there were ants in kitchen and bathroom areas so the owner may want to deal with that at some point but wasn’t a big deal really. Having had ants in our house before we just know that it only gets worse.

Lakeside fun

We had a wonderful time at this large and well stocked house, including a boat ride on beautiful Lake Henderson and an evening by the fire pit. The walkway around the yard looks like something you’d find in a state park. Definitely want to stay more than one day next time.

Amazing stay on the lake!

We were in town for a family event and thoroughly enjoyed our stay on the lake. We grew up in Inverness and have been looking for a great place to stay when we come back to visit. It is one of the prettiest properties on the lake. It is set on a peninsula so we got to watch beautiful sunrises and sunsets. This house exceeded our expectations. The hosts thought of every detail inside and out.

Nostalgic visit to Inverness

The rental was a beautiful property on Lake Henderson. We'd previously lived in Inverness in the 1980's and visited several old friends there on this trip.We rented a boat from the owners Mark and Patty and enjoyed cruising the vast lake chain. The owners were available if needed and very accommodating. The house was very well equipped and we had fun fishing off the dock--actually caught some fish! Would recommend this rental without reservation.

great house and hosts

i’ve rented about 20 houses in the last 10 years, and this was one of the best, and certainly the best equipped. quirky house, very clean, classy antique furniture, and a museum of great paintings by the owner’s father. the large dinner table and kitchen worked great during our stay, and the pool table and darts were fun. the hosts were responsive, and helpful, and obviously wanted to make our stay the best.

This was the perfect home for our family. There were 12 of us. Six adults and 6 children. The kids fished off the dock and had fun kayaking. We would definitely go back again. Home is very well stocked with games and essentials.

We love making great memories with our friends and family and we want our house to be a place where you can do the same.

What makes this property unique

We are a rare peninsula property with gorgeous views of the lake to the east, west and north. Everything you need is on site including boats, ramp, dock, beach, patio with fire pit, and easy access to all of the amenities in the area.
