Lake House

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy home by the lake. The setting was peaceful and serene—perfect for a relaxing getaway. The house was well-equipped, and had a charming feel that made it feel like a true escape from the everyday. . I loved waking up to the view of the lake in the morning. The entire home was so neat and clean. Check in/check out was super easy. Everything was as described and even better in person. We can’t wait to stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Brian Ament

Host profile image
I am always rejuvenated when I'm here at the river. I get a feeling of tranquility seeing the eagles and other wildlife in the area. I love being able to just jump on my boat ( any excuse is a good one ) and take a ride on the water. Let me tell you about the Safe Harbor Indian Petrogylphs and the local history and botany.

Why they chose this property

If you like getting away from it all, need to unwind or great place to play ~~ you found it!
The best area for boating, from waterskiing to kayaking, or fishing. We are close enough if want to have a nice dinner & show. The Fulton Opera House, the American Music Theater, Sight & Sound and several movie theaters are only 1/2 hour drive. If you are new to the area, come discover Amish Country, antiquing in Columbia or experiencing the clock and watch museum.

What makes this property unique

The Lake's tranquility and all the other things it has to offer may be the reason why the Indians chose to live here. Check out Indian Steps Museum, The Conestoga Historical Society, Canal Lock 12, Tucquan Glenn Nature Preserve , relax ~~ fish, boat or hike.
