About the host
Hosted by Josh Swank

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.

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