About this property

Charming 100-Year-Old Lake House on Pristine Mountain Lake -Your Perfect Retreat

  • Located atop local mountains and across from a state forest, Arnold's Lake has been a haven for families for well over 100 years. Our 2 bedroom cabin sleeps 5 comfortably and is all original. One of the first on the lake. The lake is clear, the view unreal, and the peace just what most of us are looking for.

    This house is much as it was in the early twentieth century. It still has a quaint simple feel from an era long gone. There is a large porch to rock on, a great dock to sit and share coffee or a swim, a grill, a firepit (lots of wood provided), and the closeness to nature (lovely outdoor shower) that will linger long on your mind and soul.

    If you are looking for something out of the ordinary from a more straightforward day and time, you have found it. Bring your binoculars and enjoy the Osprey, Bald Eagles, and fabulous fishing!

    Both Baseball parks are within a 15-minute drive.
