About this property
Private Retreat on Pilgrim Lake! (1507)
This serene private retreat is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature. The waterfront landing on Pilgrim Lake is ideal for swimming, jumping off a swim float, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing or birdwatching. The kitchen is well-equipped, making entertaining a breeze. The lakeside deck has ample, comfortable seating, market umbrellas, flower boxes, and a fresh herb garden. Enjoy a sparkling sunrise on the lake, a sizzling BBQ on the deck, or a magical moonrise in the evening. At the end of a perfect beach day, the outdoor shower is great for rinsing-off.
Inside, the house is designed for comfort and ease. The primary bedroom offers a king bed, a full bathroom (with a 12-inch high mini-tub perfect for easy toddler bathing, and a separate baby tub is available upon request), TV, and access to a private deck with a lake view. The two other bedrooms have a queen bed and 2 twin beds, respectively. Each bedroom has a full-size closet, bench and convenient clothing hooks. There is also an extra sleeping area for two, off the living room in the entry way, with a full daybed, allowing for 8 total guests.
Additional features of this property include lovely flower gardens, premium TV and Wi-Fi services. Quiet air conditioning is available throughout. A washer and dryer are conveniently located on the 1st floor and a standby generator ensures peace of mind during inclement weather. The home is close to beautiful beaches, parks, events, galleries and fine restaurants. Food shopping is just minutes away. For ultimate convenient recreation, you can rent kayaks and paddleboards and even arrange for delivery and pick-ups, right at the lakefront!

A wonderful place to stay. 3 years in a row. Unfortunately the lake was toxic with Cyanobacteria for most of our stay. No swimming or boating. Just a beautiful view.

The house has been nicely updated with new heat/AC splits. It’s location is quiet and private. We love our stays there.
The best thing about this property is the large comfortable deck with a lovely view of Pilgrim Lake and a small access area to the water. There's lots of comfortable seating available on the deck. The house was clean and comfortable and well equipped. There are lots of informational materials regarding all appliances, tv, etc. A great spot for bird watchers!

Our five week stay here was close to perfect—clean, well-appointed house, responsive property management when there were issues, and a view of Pilgrim Lake which was beautiful at sunrise, under a full moon, in mist. The lake was wonderful for swimming and kayaking (we brought our own). A tiny minus: very noisy room air conditioners, especially the one in the master bedroom.

Reviewer Comments:
Beautiful deck with everything we needed. Nice wide open living space. Good location. Beautiful view of lake. Pretty garden although little overgrown in back. We were pleasantly surprised to see that there were some items such as detergent, dishwashing liquid, etc. Suggestions for improvements: Air conditioner for twin bedroom. Air conditioner in living room good but noisy. We had to remove cover to reduce sound. Simplify kitchen -- too many items and many were not throughly clean. (Saw a couple of cockroaches in cabinets.)
