A Game Room That Starts a Tournament Every Time.

Some vacation homes ask you to slow down. Sparkling Waters Lakefront Retreat lets you choose your own pace — and then delivers on whichever one you pick.

Feel like doing nothing? The hammock on the lower deck has a lake view and no agenda. Feel like doing everything? The private dock is right there, the kayaks are waiting, the bass aren't going to catch themselves, and the hot tub is ready whenever the day finally runs out of steam. When the mountain weather rolls in and drives everyone inside, a game room stocked with a pool table, ping pong, and foosball ensures that nobody stays bored for long.

Four bathrooms. Soaring open beam ceilings. A stone fireplace. An outdoor wood-burning fireplace overlooking the lake. A deck running the full length of the house. And a piece of private waterfront that makes every other rental feel slightly landlocked by comparison.

The Lake is the Living Room - The main level is built to keep the water in view from the moment you walk in. Open beam ceilings create the kind of airy, generous space that feels immediately like vacation, and the stone fireplace anchors the room with warmth and character that the lake views complement rather than compete with. A full-length deck runs along the back of the house — space to spread out, soak up the view, and transition seamlessly between inside and outside at any hour of the day.

The main-level primary suite connects directly to the covered porch — patio seating, wood-burning fireplace, gas grill, and a front-row lake view that makes the bedroom feel like it extends all the way to the water. A second bedroom and full bath complete the main floor.

Upstairs, Downstairs, Everyone's Happy - The upper-level bedroom with its private ensuite and loft-style seating area overlooking the living room below is the kind of space that feels special without making a fuss about it. Downstairs, the fourth bedroom anchors a lower level that's equal parts guest suite and entertainment hub — pool table, ping pong, foosball, and a covered deck with a hammock and hot tub that operates as the best seat in the house after dark. Two levels of outdoor decking means there's always somewhere comfortable to be, and the hot tub under a clear mountain sky is the kind of experience that ends up being the detail everyone mentions on the drive home.

The Dock Changes Everything - This is the feature that turns a good lakefront rental into an exceptional one. A private dock means the lake is yours — fish off it, tie up a boat, launch kayaks directly from the property, or simply sit at the edge of the water and watch the light change over the surface. Bring your own boat or rent one nearby. The bass are reportedly cooperative. The views are guaranteed.

When the day finally winds down, the outdoor wood-burning fireplace pulls everyone together for the kind of unhurried evening that only happens when there's nowhere else to be and nowhere better to go.

A Home Built for Active Families - Between the dock, the kayaks, the hot tub, the hammock, the game room, and two levels of outdoor decking, Sparkling Waters solves the vacation planning problem entirely — the property is the activity. Bring the whole family, bring another family, fill every bedroom. The lake doesn't care how many people show up, and neither does the game room.

Downtown Highlands and its restaurants, shops, and trails are nearby whenever the outside world calls. But with a private dock and a hot tub under the stars, you may find that call going straight to voicemail.
