Enjoy lake life with this 4-season charming home, appropriately named The Oar House, in historic Irish Hills, just a short walk to Vineyard Lake. Vineyard Lake is a stunning place to visit year-round. It's a 505-acre all-sports lake, and a winter treasure. It's a known ice fishing destination, with ice cover happening earlier and lasting longer than many lakes in the area.
The Oar House features a double lot, providing our guests with ample room for barbecues, bonfires, and soaking up the fresh lake air. There's enough parking to bring your boat. Our guests have access to the public boat launch (no dock access) and park, including play equipment for the kids.
The cozy, 1,200 sq. ft. home features four bedrooms, with sleeping space for 8 guests, one bathroom, a dedicated game and puzzle room, dining room, reading nook with a daybed/trundle for additional sleeping room, and a spacious living room with a large, comfortable sectional couch. The kitchen boasts ample storage for your vacation provisions, including a full-sized refrigerator, gas range, dishwasher, microwave, and a coffee bar stocked with enough supplies to kick your vacation off right. A washer and dryer are available, and there's also a clothes line in the yard for all of your beach towels and swimming suites to dry out.
Guests may enjoy use of the 2 kayaks, gas grill, yard games, and wood bonfire pit on the property.
The Irish Hills area boasts many beautiful attractions, including over 50 region lakes, sure to please any traveler.
