Family friendly lake front home with private dock in a cove

5 Bedroom 3 Bathroom home with everything you need for a weekend or week long stay. Bring your friends, your kids, your boat!!!
Ground level has 3 bedrooms, kitchen, living space, and a huge deck with a grill and views of the lake. The bottom level has 2 bedrooms, full sized washer/dryer, sofa sleeper, sectional couch, and tons of open space. Walk out basement to the backyard and the steps down to the dock.
You’ll get some steps in getting down to the water but it is well worth it. A covered boat slip with a swim platform. This is a low traffic cove so no worries about boats coming by and disrupting your swim, kayak, or floating around on a raft.
The front yard is huge and the circular drive and dead end road makes it great for a walk or a bike ride.
5 minutes to a boat ramp, 5 minutes to Twin Creeks marina and swim beach, and less than 10 minutes to downtown Winchester.

Celebrating Thanksgiving
We absolutely loved our stay. There was plenty of space for our group of 10, and the property is located in a quiet neighborhood where grandparents & great-grandparents could take a nice walk each afternoon. There was great fishing, and a beautiful view, along with lots of games & puzzles for the family to enjoy. The host was very responsive and friendly. We hope to return again in the spring/summer.

Fantastic Stay
This house is, in my opinion, better than advertised. Great location, responsive owner, and a lovely home. I've stayed in several VRBO homes and this is in my top 3. It's clean, well-stocked, and just so fun.

Great house for groups!
There was plenty of room and the whole property has so many lovely features. We loved swimming off the private dock, and the deck is perfect for group dinners.

Worth the climb
Our family from age 4 -84 had a great time! Beautiful spot with privacy. Yes, it is a climb from the dock back to the house. Yet we enjoyed floating, kayaking, paddle boarding and fishing in this little cove. Great mini vacation for the 12 of us. Enough room for all of us.

Father's Day Getaway
Our family enjoyed our time during the Father's Day weekend. We brought our boat and enjoyed the private dock! Our son caught a couple of catfish and bluegill off the dock too! The house was a great size and had plenty of beds and rooms. The only issue we had was some bees on the stairs to/from the dock. Plenty of room for dining - even invited some friends over for a catfish fry! Thanks for a great time!

2nd stay at this property. Will be back again!
Friendly helpful owners; great communication. Property is well maintained and very comfortable. Back deck is spectacular with two large dining tables. 77 steps to lakefront and dock, not for the faint hearted or elderly. But just sitting on the deck is so peaceful it makes up for the inconvenience. Our family had a reunion there last year, and with hotels in short supply, I rented the house again for out of state family for a funeral. The 6 people were thrilled to stay there again (familiar and great memories), and the price worked out less than hotel rooms! Highly recommend!

The home is super nice and spacious. Great for multi-generational gatherings
My family was more than pleased with the property. It was super clean. Our hosts, Sue and Tom, were very nice, and attended to a small issue we had with the air conditioner unit.
