Beautiful Country Setting with Heated Inground Pool and Stocked Pond

*Heated pool opens first week of April*

Wonderful home on 30+ acres for family and friends to escape to. 5 bedroom 4 bath home with plenty of space to spread out and relax. Master suite is a retreat within itself with additional sitting room, deluxe massage chair, fireplace, and bathroom equipped with large shower and separate jetted tub. Home has a fully equipped kitchen and a great room with fireplace overlooking inground pool. Lower level of home has a family room with 86 inch tv great for watching movies, pool table, foosball table, gaming console and a walk out to patio overlooking water.
Beautiful and clean large natural spring fed pond great for swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding and fishing. Pond is stocked with largemouth bass, bluegill, black crappie, and channel catfish. You are welcome to keep and clean anything you catch or simply release. Small fishing boat with trolling motor, anchor, seat cushions, and life jackets is provided.
"The Rec" is an additional 3000 square foot building available for rent a few steps away from the main house. This building has a kitchenette, half bath, and plenty of indoor space for nighttime and weatherproof activities. Play a round of golf on the simulator offering almost limitless courses. Basketball court with adjustable rim height to suit all ages. Darts, bags, pinball, arcade games, infinity gaming table, and putting green provide hours of indoor fun. A one-time fee of $500 covers 24-hour access to this building for your entire stay. All machines are set to "free play" so there are no additional charges, no coins necessary. Rec can be viewed on arrival and rented at that time, booked now by contacting host, or guests can wait and decide to rent during their stay.

Our goal at Summerfell Resort is to provide the best possible experience for you while maintaining the expansive property and caring for our livestock. To achieve this, our family will be on-site as needed. We strive to respect your privacy and will not enter the pool area or main house unless requested. Thank you for the understanding and we look forward to your stay with us!--

VRBO policy requires us to state that we have security cameras on the exterior of the premises. These cameras cover outbuildings, dock, pool and pool deck including spa. If you have any concerns please contact us.

We were very happy with the property. There was plenty for the family to do. Everything we needed seemed to be available. The weather was perfect, so we spent allot of time in the pool and hot tub. We had plenty of room. We're going to book it again next year.

Great Summer get-away

This secluded country location is amazing, and has a wealth of amenities, including an indoor recreation area… and the house had plenty of room for our large family. The expansive pool area and grounds gave us many options to have fun, play games and interact with nature. We loved the large pond for water recreation and it has some great fishing for all ages! Lori and Jack are wonderful hosts, we’re already booked to go back!

This property was incredible. We had a large group of friends there but it could easily be used for families as well. There is something for everyone and even though we had perfect weather to be outdoors, we would have been more than okay if we were forced inside.
