took my research lab from UPenn on a retreat here and couldn't have asked for a better experience. The waterfront situation is, to use the parlance of my gen Z lab members, FIRE. Living room and 4 seasons / dining room also great for hangs. In short, it was perfect for us!!

Golf/Fish getaway

Had a great time at the lake house. 4 guys golfing and fishing trip. Caught tons of fish off the dock and the 9 hole golf course is really nice and was in great shape. Very peaceful sitting around the campfire at night. Thanks Tom!

Beautiful property & a great view of the lake! Owner was very attentive & quick to respond to inquiries. The kitchen has all the necessities to cook, minus the standard condiments. The large, no curtains, windows provided a great view of the lake. The room with 2 twin beds only has valances on windows so those who like to get up with the sun should sleep in there. Nice to have chairs & coolers for a day at the pool/beach. Overall it's a great place to stay & would go back again.

Amazing Lake House

Our 3 generation family of 10 had a fabulous time at the Garda's place! The view is simply breathtaking! We caught fish from the backyard dock and had so much fun kayaking and paddleboating. We even enjoyed a lakeside fire in the firepit at sunset with S'mores. The gas grills worked well to feed our gang at the backyard picnic table. Morning coffee on the deck was so serene. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed and Tom was so helpful and responsive to my many questions. We can't wait to visit again!

Excellent weekend at the lake!

We had an amazing time staying at Tom’s place. It was perfect for accommodating the whole family. The kids loved the game room and the dining room was our “hang out” zone. The house was well kept and very clean. Tom is a great communicator and was even able to accommodate an early check in/ late check out for us. He also helped us coordinate with the community rec center so we can launch our own boat in the lake. I will definitely be staying here again!

Lake Family Vacation

Very convenient location. The Hideout is a gated community. The House we stayed in was fully equipped and accommodating for 6 adults and 4 children all under the ages of 10. The kids particularly enjoyed being able to fish right from the floating docks! Everyone also enjoyed the provided equipment without having to go to the marina. The beach and TiKi Bar is a short drive and very nice. I would highly recommend this property.

This property was one of my favorite properties that I have ever stayed at! We stayed on Labor Day weekend and didn’t even have to venture out. We had everything that a lakehouse could supply. There was a peddleboat for the kids, kayaks, boogie boards to float on, and a great place to sit and enjoy the lake view. The house had everything we needed and then some. The kitchen was stocked and it had a beautiful sun room to eat dinner at with a long table to fit all 8 of us comfortably. Tom was so amazing to rent from. I asked him questions the day of check in and he responded immediately. I would 100% recommend his house to anyone looking for a fun week/weekend at the lake. We will be back!!

The hideout

Easy check in and entrance to private community. House had incredible spot on the lake, beautiful views and location. Owner gave us all the necessary information, for our stay. And was extremely thoughtful with check in and checkour times. "The Hideout" has so much to do, for family and friends. Do to a perfect weather weekend, we really just took in the lake all 3 days there. But there were plenty of options, beach, tiki bar, game room, golf, mini golf..ex...will definitly love to rent again.

Absolutely Perfect Lakefront Getaway!We had an unforgettable stay at this beautiful lakefront house! The view alone is worth every penny—waking up each morning to the calm, sparkling lake was pure serenity. The house was spotless, cozy, and had everything we needed for a relaxing retreat.One of the highlights was the private sauna, which was the perfect way to unwind in the evenings. We also loved using the kayak to explore the lake—it felt like we had our own private slice of nature. The outdoor space was peaceful and private, with easy access to the water and plenty of room to relax and take in the scenery.The hosts were responsive and made everything easy from check-in to check-out. If you’re looking for a peaceful, nature-filled escape with modern comforts and stunning lake views, this is the place. We can’t wait to come back!
