Located on a peninsula with over 500 feet of shoreline providing a water view on three sides and a private yard on the fourth, the grounds are wooded with interspersed gardens, hammocks and gliders for secluded relaxation.

From across the Western slough, you can barely see the house peeking through the trees to the right of this photo taken in November. The water level is lowered in the Winter months and raised again in the Spring.

The home consists of either four or five bedrooms and three bathrooms. Interior ceilings soar to 26 feet in this all-timber home and a balcony overlooks the dining and living areas.

The living room contains a wood burning iron and ceramic fireplace, 60" projection television with DVD, full stereo system and a beautiful antique piano.

A dedicated poker/game table overlooks the lake through massive glass windows with lots of games provided for any rainy interludes.

A regulation pool table can be quickly converted to ping-pong or table hockey.

The dining room has an antique mahogany table with eight chairs but can seat up to ten.

In addition, a full-length bar with six stools provides combined seating for up to 16 people. It also has a stunning view of the lake.

The kitchen has full amenities including a dishwasher and a freezer for storing food. Concierge Food Service is available (Link).

All dishes, silverware, microwave, full oven and condiments are provided. Chef and catering services are also available (Link).

A large window overlooking the lake makes this as pleasant as the rest of the rooms.

The master suite downstairs is luxuriously massive. It contains an oversize king-sized bed and bath with bidet.

A large washer and dryer are located off the master bedroom.

The bedroom looks out over the lake from one oversized window and the front garden from the other.

A separate dressing suite complemented by a two-person Jacuzzi is part of the Master Suite.

This room contains a fold-out futon with tempurpedic top which can be used as a fifth bedroom.

A personal sink and television in both rooms provide maximum comfort.

A second smaller suite with a queen sized, four-poster rice bed and private bath is located off the upstairs balcony.

A second bedroom with an antique cannonball bed overlooks the lake and shares a third full bathroom with a large "childrens room."

The childrens room sports two bunk beds; each with a full mattress down and one up to sleep up to a total of six smaller children.

Overall the house can be configured for three adult couples, each with a separate bed and bathroom, which is perfect for golf or fishing weekends, or all the way up to fourteen people with children.

The lake-side covered deck looks out over a garden of azaleas, rhododendron and water all the way around.

A large, stainless steel grill is provided for outdoor cooking rain or shine.

A meandering path leads down to a two-level deck with chairs, table and chaise. It's the perfect spot for sunbathing or an evening meal on the water.

A floating boathouse provides cover for your boat.

Swimming, diving and fishing is enjoyed from a second floating dock with ladder.

Activities: Water sports, obviously, constitute the heart of summertime activities. Swimming or floating from the docks, together with sunbathing and just plain relaxing on the water, are hard to beat.

Fishing is delightfully varied on this lake. Because of its significant depth, it is home to a population of large landlocked striped bass, which provide "deep sea" fishing action on a freshwater lake. The lake is also known for its smallmouth and largemouth populations. The kids can catch bream and catfish from the dock. Guides are available for guaranteed success. Night fishing from the dock is an experience the kids will never forget.

Boat rental is available from nearby Tims Ford Marina. Ski boat rental may be added shortly (inquire at the time of rental about the availability of a 20-foot Mariah I/O skiboat).
