The front yard features a stone walking labyrinth, large oak trees and lush gardens.

The thoughtful ground floor casita includes guest quarters with a luxurious private stone bath, while all bedrooms boast en-suite bathrooms for ultimate convenience and privacy.

Carla’s Lost Cove was a special experience from the moment we booked. Carla is the consummate host and it only got better when we arrived. The property was immaculate and well stocked with everything we needed, and the views were spectacular. Our favorites were morning sunrise and coffee on the screened porch, the comfy couches, blankets, and bedding, as well as cooking outside and the terrific porches. The perfect lakehouse to unwind and relax at.

The host was very welcoming and responsive to questions we had about the area in general. The home was well "stocked" with amenities.
