About this property

Rustic Modern Lake House 5 BR/3BA Right On Water's Edge!

Step into our freshly renovated, architecturally beautiful rustic-modern home. Just 50 feet from the superb swimming and fishing waters of Big McDonald Lake, enjoy morning coffee in the bright kitchen while watching the kids splash. Our spacious living room is set up for gathering, games and family style fun, perfect for creating book-worthy memories!

At night unwind by the stunning fireplace, and then fall into one of the brand-new king or full sized luxurious beds.

Vacation starts here.

A Bit of History...

Our house was part of the former Big McDonald lake resort, which had a long, & rich history of being the highlight of many families summer's together. Now we've updated, designed and filled the house anew with things to facilitate the best kind of quality time and fun.

Our dream? We want our house to be a place you look back on for creating some of your best memories with your family and friends.

Unique Fact: Our home's proximity to the water is grandfathered in; you can no longer build a house this close to a lake (a mere stone skip away). Nowadays new building codes restrict such things, so pull up a lawn chair and come appreciate this piece of history.

Now....The House

A designer open-concept accented with hand hewn beams, a beautiful gas fireplace, and easy-to re-arrange kitchen island/table—ideal for large groups, family reunions & friend getaways. (Fully renovated inside and outside in 2026.)

Sleeping Arrangements

Sleeps up to 15 guests in 5 bedrooms (4 king beds - 3 full sized beds) and 3 bathrooms (2 showers + 1 tub/shower combo to avoid morning lines).

• 2 private king bedrooms (including master)
• 1 private full bedroom
• 2 fun bunk rooms: a king bunk (spacious and grand! + full-over-full which is great for kids, or adults)

A bright sunroom adjoins the king bunk room, perfect for games or morning coffee. There is also a fully equipped laundry room with a washer and dryer.


About The Lake

With crystal clear water and a nice sandy bottom, Big McDonald Lake has amazing fishing and swimming. The gently graded lot is ideal for easy access to the lake and watching the kids play in the yard or from the dock. The beachfront includes:

• A swimming raft
• Aluminum dock
• Boat lift
• Complementary Paddle board, Kayak & Canoe

A BBQ grill is right outside for easy outdoor cooking
