The Space
Enjoy the serenity that this beautiful private property offers. Despite having neighbors nearby, the location offers a quiet vibe, with views of water from almost every window. Tons of natural light pours through the Gem’s abundant windows, allowing you to follow the natural rhythm of sunrise to sunset, if you so choose.
The primary bedroom is on its own floor, showcasing a jacuzzi tub and a king size bed that both overlook the incredible lake view. The main floor hosts 2 bedrooms with queen size beds that each have a private full bathroom, and the basement level has 2 bedrooms that are perfect for a family to share, with a bunk room (4 queen beds), a separate room with a queen bed, and a bathroom.
The shared living spaces of this cabin are the real show-stoppers, and truly make it the perfect property for a family/group getaway vacation:
>2-stories of windows overlooking the lake in the A-frame, wood ceiling living room. Outfitted with a cozy seating area, dining table for 10, and a 65” Smart TV, it’s the perfect hangout for a movie night after a day on the lake, or a snowy afternoon.

>Public Beach for sunning and swimming: 0.5miles from the Gem
>Public Boat Launch: 0.5miles from the Gem
>NO DOCK. Boats can be anchored in open water during the day.
