01Morning

Coffee on the porch

Two hundred square feet of covered porch face the water. Mornings start slowly here – a coffee, a good book and the lake waking up below.

02Midday

Out on the water

Take the kayaks out – one tandem, one single – launch your boat from the private ramp or swim right from the shore. Lay Lake has 289 miles of shoreline to explore.

03Golden hour

Sunsets over the water

The house faces the evening sky. Watch the sun go down through the big windows, or walk down to the pier as the light turns gold.

04Evening

Fire by the water

The stone fire pit sits on the lawn right by the lake – for BBQ, s'mores and long conversations as the light fades.

05Night

Sleep with a lake view

Both bedrooms look out over the lake: the master with a queen bed, the second with two twins – fresh, quiet and ready for you.
