ABOUT THIS SPACE
Built for big groups that like to be together without being on top of each other.
THE DECKS & HOT TUB
Start on the upper deck. The hot tub looks straight out over Douglas Lake and its wooded islands, with mountain views layered on the horizon. Grill dinner and eat at the deck table at golden hour. The covered lower patio adds lounge seating, cornhole and a giant connect-four.
THE INDOOR POOL & WATERSLIDE
This is the one guests talk about. The tube waterslide starts outside and drops you into the indoor pool, so it's swim season any month of the year. Fair warning from past guests: the slide is FAST, so it's best for confident older kids and adults.
GAME ROOM & MOVIE THEATER
The game room has arcade games, foosball and a pub table, with doors out to the patio. The movie theater has tiered leather recliners and a big screen.
GREAT ROOM, KITCHEN & DINING
Upstairs, the open great room puts everyone in one space: a large sectional facing the stone fireplace and TV, a long farmhouse dining table, and lake views through the windows. The kitchen has a long island with seating for eight, stainless appliances, a dishwasher, coffee maker and cooking basics, plus children's dinnerware.
BEDROOMS & BATHS
Six bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms mean nobody is waiting in line. Several bedrooms have king beds, and some have their own electric fireplace, TV and a door out to a lake-view balcony. The bunk room has a twin-over-full bunk, lake-view windows and its own TV - the kids' favorite. Bedrooms have room-darkening shades and extra blankets, and an upper loft with a fireplace gives early risers a quiet coffee corner.
THE EXTRAS
Wi-Fi, smart TVs, washer and dryer, a crib and beach essentials - pack light.

WHO THIS HOME IS BEST FOR

- Multi-family trips and reunions: a large group can spread across six bedrooms and 6.5 baths, then come together in the game room or on the deck.
