About this property
Stable Waters House
Escape to tranquility at our updated ranch house, nestled on serene stable grounds and skirted by a picturesque horse pasture. Enjoy the expansive lawn, a peaceful pond, and the beauty of being surrounded by lush trees. This charming retreat offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern amenities.
Located right across the street from Lake Kampeska, enjoy easy access to multiple public lake and family beach areas, all within 1-3 miles.
The space
**Idyllic Setting**:
Watch horses graze in the picturesque pasture, take a walk through our private nature paths, or relax on the porch overlooking the pond & grounds. Enjoy watching wildlife meandering about from your window. Guests say that it feels like a hidden sanctuary here.
*Location* Stable Waters offers the perfect balance of seclusion & convenience. Enjoy nearby restaurants, shops, & local attractions (either around Lake Kampeska or within a short drive into town), OR simply unwind in your own peaceful retreat.
**Modern Comforts**:
Our ranch house is fully updated with modern amenities & a fully stocked kitchen, ensuring a comfortable and convenient stay.
*Nature's Beauty*:
The house is enveloped by trees & set back from the stable, providing a serene and private atmosphere.
- **Outdoor Activities**:
Perfect for close access to lake activities (fishing, boating, swimming), walking/biking the lake bike path (the house is only steps away), strolling our nature trails out back, or simply enjoying the breathtaking views.
For hunters, we are 5 miles from the nearest walk in game production area.
For fishermen, multiple lakes in the area are popular for fishing all year round. We have plenty of space for you to park your boat(s) & ice houses.
For horse owners, we have a 5 stall barn and can discuss horse boarding options and fees prior, pending availability. We have plenty of room for your trailer outside the barn.
Whether you’re looking to unwind in nature, enjoy lake activities, or simply relax in a peaceful setting, our ranch house offers the perfect escape. Book now and experience the charm and tranquility of our picturesque retreat.
Guest access
The entire house is yours with the exception of locked utility rooms/closets (this is where things like the sump pumps live. You’re not missing out on anything ;) )
Guests have access to the porches, patio & outdoor furniture and are welcome to use the grill for cooking.
While guest(s) are not permitted to enter the stable or pasture, or feed horses without permission from Host/Stable Waters management; if the horses come to the [non-electric] fence line, you are welcome to give them pets & love. If we are around tending to the property or caring for our own horses “Crow” & “Ramsey” - pending timing & availability, we love to invite guests over to see the barn & feed them a few treats.
We also have 3 cherished stable cats: “Peanut Butter”, “Alice”, & “Jefferson B Sherbert”. They happily reside in the barn and tack room, which we’ve made cozy just for them. “Peanut Butter”, in particular, enjoys exploring on nice days & is incredibly affectionate to all humans young & old. Feel free to love and pet them if you see them as well. If they ever become a bother or you have any concerns, please let us know. We’ll ensure they’re put safely back inside the barn (sometimes they accidentally get left out when a boarder visits their horse). Rest assured, we make sure they’re safe and snug in the barn at night and during bad weather.
