Best for
This lakefront home best suits families or small groups who want space, privacy, and a true waterfront setting with on-site activities like kayaks, fishing off the dock, and a ping pong/billiards game room. It’s also a strong fit for travelers who prefer to cook, thanks to a professional chef’s kitchen plus an extra refrigerator and oven on the lower level. Guests looking for a quiet retreat with lake views—and easy drives to nearby restaurants and shopping—are the core audience.
Travel tips
If you want to use the elevator or request dock space, arrange it in advance since both are provided/approved upon request and availability. Plan for a drive to dining in nearby Brookfield (roughly 6–8 km for many options), and bring your own fishing gear if you’d like to fish from the back dock. Note that the property has an exterior front Ring doorbell and a rear exterior camera monitoring the boat and boat dock.
