About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
House & Boathouse
We have set this house up to be very comfortable for family use. The two upstairs bedrooms both have king-sized beds and en-suite bathrooms with Italian tile showers. The main floor bedroom has a queen bed and an Italian tile shower. The basement bedroom is set up as a bunk room with two twin-sized bunks, two trundle beds, and a cast iron tub with a shower. Each room has smart tv and DVD. The kitchen is thoughtfully outfitted and there are gas grills at both the house and the boathouse. The laundry room has a full-sized washer/dryer. The half bath has a copper sink and Rocky Mountain Hardware faucet. All doors are solid hickory with nice hardware. You will love the 'cowboy cauldron fire pit on the boulder patio that overlooks a beautiful setting: horses grazing (the Greystone pastures are adjacent to the house), the campers of Greystone and Mondamin playing in the lake, and both sunrise and sunset views. WE DO NOT OFFER A MOTORBOAT WITH THE HOUSE DUE TO INSURANCE COMPLICATIONS.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker, and housekeeping is provided on request.
Make use of convenient amenities such as concierge services, an arcade/game room, and barbecue grills.
Breakfast is available for a fee.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Thanksgiving 2024
We enjoyed our second Thanksgiving here! All the things we needed to make our traditional Thanksgiving meal, lots of room to play our annual football game and enough room for us to spread out. We enjoy all that the area has to offer and the house is just perfect for our two families.

Magnificent
Every aspect of this vacation home was magnificent! The home is gorgeous, very clean and well equipped with comfy beds, a gourmet kitchen and plenty of living space with all the amenities to make it a home away from home! The owners of the home are gracious and welcoming! It is one of our most favorite places to visit each summer! Simply the best!

Our favorite place!
This is the third time we've stayed at this property and it never disappoints. It is such a tranquil retreat and extra special with the sounds of surrounding camps in the summer. We are always so sad to leave and spend most of our drive home trying to figure out when we can return.
