The lake house is located on Crawford Lake, an all sports-lake. The boat launch is conveniently located right next to our lot. The beach has a sandy bottom. Guests can enjoy fishing off of the dock for blue gill, perch, catfish, pike and bass; boating (our dock contains tie off locations for your boat); paddling around the lake on the available kayaks(2), canoe(1), and/or SUP board(1); early morning walks around the lake; enjoying the wildlife and scenery (if you are lucky you will spot our resident bald eagles that nest on the south end of the lake or you may spot a black bear); roasting s'mores around a camp fire (roasting sticks are provided); playing on the beach and in the water with the variety of beach and water toys provided; or visiting local tourist sites.
