Waterside Haven

A really beautiful property in a wonderful location.Views of the lake and 2 minute drive, 5 minute walk to the gorgeous beach. The local facilities really made for a seamless stay. We have a small fur baby and the whole set up was perfect for all of us. We will definitely be back

Perfect Getaway

Hemingways Lakehouse was the perfect last minute getaway for a sisters escape. The house was better than we expected and although modern, was a beautiful mix of old and new. Loved the plants in the living room. It was comfy, cozy and for a 2 bedroom home had plenty of extra living space to sit, reflect, chat, read or play games.
