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.

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.

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.

Love this home and location. Another great Thanksgiving with three generations. House is so very accommodating clean, and comfortable. We enjoyed walks, hiking, nearby waterfalls at DuPont, sunsets by the outside fire, and warming up by the fireplace. Hope to return soon!
