Lakefront Retreat - Beach Access & Bay Views

Turquoise water stretches past over 80 feet of private beach while the sky burns pink behind the mountains. This Garden City lakefront home sleeps 25 across 6 bedrooms and 4 full baths, with beach access, bay and mountain views, kayaks and paddleboards at the shore, a fire pit ringed by Adirondack chairs, two kitchens, and a game room with pool, ping pong, shuffleboard, and arcade games. Parks, festivals, and pickleball are less than half a mile away.

Mornings start with coffee on the covered balcony, watching the lake shift from silver to turquoise beneath the mountain ridge. Afternoons belong to the beach: over 80 feet of private shoreline, kayaks and paddleboards ready to launch, and a sand pit full of toys for the little ones. As the sun sets in fiery orange and purple, the group gathers around the fire pit for s'mores while the moon rises over the water. Inside, sun-filled living spaces, two full kitchens, a loft lounge, and a game room give everyone room to spread out and plenty of reasons to come back together.

With three king rooms for couples, a dedicated bunk room for the kids, and flexible extra sleeping in the loft and living room, this layout keeps big families and multi-family groups together without anyone feeling crowded.

Bedroom 1 features a king bed and offers a calm retreat for a couple after a long day on the water.

Bedroom 2 also has a king bed, a natural fit for a second couple or parents who want a space of their own.

Bedroom 3 pairs a queen bed with two single beds, so a family with young kids can settle in together.

Bedroom 4 offers a queen bed, a quiet spot for grandparents or another couple.

Bedroom 5 is the kids' headquarters, with a vaulted ceiling, gray bunk beds, a ceiling fan, and a canoe poster on the wall. Two doubles and four singles make it the place for cousins and friends to stay up whispering long after lights out.

Bedroom 6 combines a king bed with two single beds, ideal for parents traveling with older kids or teens.

The loft adds two sofas for overflow sleeping beneath its vaulted ceiling, and the living room provides a double bed, with four extra pull-out mattresses on hand for even more flexibility. Around the bedrooms you'll find ceiling fans, vaulted ceilings, a desk for anyone who needs to check in with work, and one room with a large window looking past the deck railing to blue lake water and rolling hills.

Bathrooms
Four full bathrooms keep busy mornings moving. One showcases a glass walk-in shower wrapped in marble-look tile, with a granite vanity and brass pulls. Another features a light wood vanity, a gilded mirror, and a wooden shelf of stacked white towels.

The remaining two baths pair white vanities with granite countertops and brass faucets, and each offers a bathtub and shower combo, perfect for bath time with the kids, beneath lake-themed canoe art and a cheerful Live Love Lake sign.

Living Areas
The main living room is bright and open, with two gray sofas, lake-themed pillows, and a gas fireplace topped by a wall-mounted TV. Large windows and glass doors look straight out to the lake, so the view is part of every movie night.

Upstairs, the loft wraps everyone into an oversized tan sectional piled with colorful pillows, with a vaulted ceiling, a rustic wood beam, and windows over the water. An open railing keeps the whole group connected.

Kitchen & Dining
Two full kitchens, upper and lower, mean breakfast for a crowd is never a bottleneck. The main kitchen is crisp and white, with stainless appliances, tall pantry cabinets, and a big granite island with seating for five, while a sliding door offers a glimpse of the lake as you cook.

The second kitchen has a long breakfast bar with wooden stools, pendant lighting, and a warm wood ceiling beam, and a wine cooler keeps drinks chilled for the evening. Gather everyone at the long farmhouse table with bench seating, set before sliding glass doors that frame the lake and mountains, or grab a casual meal at the dining nook beside a sunny window decorated with painted oars.

Game Room
When it's time to come inside, the game room keeps the competition going. Rack up a game of pool, rally at the ping pong table, slide pucks down the shuffleboard table, or chase high scores on the arcade table. The bright room with a vaulted ceiling, wood beam, and tall windows also holds a sofa and a TV, so spectators can cheer from the comfort of a cushion.

Beach, Lawn & Fire Pit
A grassy path leads from the home to the turquoise water, where over 80 feet of private beach awaits. Launch the provided kayaks and paddleboards, build castles in the sand pit, or hop on the bikes for a ride around town.

Back at the house, the concrete patio opens onto a wide lawn with a picnic table under a striped umbrella and blue Adirondack chairs circling the fire pit. Fire up the Traeger smoker grill for a feast, then linger as the sunset paints the sky and the moon rises over the lake. The covered balcony and deck upstairs, reached by a spiral staircase, are made for quiet mornings and golden-hour views of the bay and mountains.
