About the host

Hosted by Josh Swank

Host profile image
My brother and I grew up in this beautiful home and have decided to open it up to others for four weeks during the summer of 2025.

Current open dates range from July 7 - August 5.

This is an amazing property where dreams will be made. Taking a family vacation to the lake, letting time slow, and enjoying each others company is one of life’s true pleasures.

Why they chose this property

We grew up here and could not think of a more beautiful place to own a lake home.

What makes this property unique

Sitting on the north shore of Syracuse Lake and across the road from Maxwelton Golf Course, this property is a true gem.
