About this property

Hemlock Lake House - New Discounts for October and November 2025!

This is a wonderful, spacious family vacation getaway house, right on beautiful, spring-fed Hemlock Lake! Custom built in 2005 with 3,000 plus sq. footage, it has granite kitchen countertops, stainless steel appliances, sturdy dining table that seats 12, large kitchen island with seating, wrap-around outdoor deck with table & chairs, massive stone fireplace, and full finished basement with pool table, kitchenette, full bathroom, and queen bed sleeping area.

There is a lovely view of the lake from master bedroom suite and from most of the house, with comfortable beds, large bathrooms, and a separate laundry room. Guests may use the board games, kayaks, row boat, and canoe that come with the house. Enjoy an outdoor fire in our newly renovated fire pit area.

This would also be a nice spot for a business, church, or large family retreat. It is a quiet and relaxing home, with many opportunities for water sports and other local activities.

Guests must provide their own linens: bed, bath, beach, and kitchen.

Family vacay at Hemlock Lake

Beautiful property. Easy to get to. Plenty of space for our group of 9 with a few people coming and going over the course of the week. Lots of family time. Everyone enjoyed the kayaks and just relaxing on the porch. Very quiet and peaceful place.

Great house and location

House was nice and had everything you would need in the kitchen. The owners were responsive. The listing did not say we needed to bring our own sheets when we booked so that was a suprise to us. The king bed is in a loft that has a beautiful view of the lake which is nice but VERY bright, there are no shades and it lacks privacy. Just be aware of that and plan accordingly.

Nice lake house

My group really enjoyed the opportunity to stay for a week at this house. It was great that there were 4 bathrooms and 5 bedrooms along with kayaks to use on the lake. Second time we rented and were not disappointed. Sitting on the deck, playing pool, or just floating in the lake was enjoyed by all.

Utility ladder for lake entrance

House was awesome! Everything was great! Only down fall was no deck ladder to get into water….a utility ladder was in the water at the end of the dock….not safe for elderly people-asked the neighbors to use their ladder.

Our family had a wonderful stay in your property. The timing of the year was perfect… We had only one evening of wonderful, thunderstorms, and light rains… The view from the property overlooking the lake was spectacular. The property was in great condition and was exactly as described. Thank you again.

Beautiful Lake Get Away

A beautiful property with a stunning view of Hemlock Lake. There were 7 of us and we were very comfortable in this spacious house. It is located in a quiet neighborhood so very little traffic noise. It was a wonderful experience for all of us.

Stunning View!

This house is much larger than the pictures would lead you to believe! The wall of windows in the great room offer the most gorgeous views of the lake. The wraparound deck is shaded most of the day (in mid-June), so we were still able to be outside during our stay's unusual heat wave.
