Outdoor living at its best
Start your mornings with coffee on the deck as the sun rises over your private, clean, sand-bottomed 1/3-acre pond, complete with an Otter Island swim raft. Kids will love swimming, fishing, and chasing frogs, while adults relax and take in the peaceful surroundings. The pond is stocked with bluegill, black crappie, and largemouth bass—perfect for catch-and-release fishing.
Set on three wooded acres, the property is a haven for wildlife, with deer, turkeys, owls, and other native animals frequently spotted. A public lakeside trail nearby offers beautiful walks along the shoreline and scenic views of Castle Rock Lake.
In the evenings, gather around the outdoor firepit to roast marshmallows and unwind to the sounds of crickets and frogs—we even provide the firewood!
Enjoy friendly competition on the private beach volleyball court and horseshoe pits. Inside, you’ll find numerous games for rainy days and seven flat-screen TVs with Roku for streaming all your favorite apps.

The house is great! My grandkids loved the “pond”! They used the kayaks every day. And my family loved the “catch and release” fishing. A wonderful house for family vacations. Erin was a great host!
Everything needed for the perfect family get together! Indoors or outdoors, rain or shine, this place has it all. Plenty of rooms, open and spacious yet cozy for family memories to be made. This is definitely a gem! Thank you for allowing our family to enjoy this wonderful place! We may be back!!!

Thank you Kelly! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. Please visit again!
Once again, our family had a wonderful week at this lovely vacation home. Our group of 8 adults and 5 children (ages 2-10) had plenty of space to spread out and come together. The well-appointed kitchen, the comfortable beds and bedding and (mostly) the swimming pond will keep us coming back!
Mark (The Host) provided tons of details and had plenty of room for our group. It was an amazing stay and would recommend it to anyone.

We loved this beautiful home! Location is nice, property is beautiful and house was big enough to accommodate 4 families. This is a great place to stay in winter and summer. We will definitely want to stay here again in summer to enjoy the pond and outdoor area of the property.

Garima, thanks for staying with us. Look forward to seeing you in the summer!
Unfortunately it rained a lot during our stay but the size and layout of the property, the amount of child friendly toys for infants and all of the other amenities made our stay the best family get away ever.

Pete, glad you made the most of mother nature's twist. We try to make the home a great place to stay regardless of the weather, I'm so glad to hear that we succeeded!
Wonderful place for family gathering. Everything we needed was provided. The kids loved having their own private pond and all the pool accessories that were provided.
