Beautiful Country Setting with Heated Inground Pool and Stocked Pond

*Heated pool opens first week of April*

Wonderful home on 30+ acres for family and friends to escape to. 5 bedroom 4 bath home with plenty of space to spread out and relax. Master suite is a retreat within itself with additional sitting room, deluxe massage chair, fireplace, and bathroom equipped with large shower and separate jetted tub. Home has a fully equipped kitchen and a great room with fireplace overlooking inground pool. Lower level of home has a family room with 86 inch tv great for watching movies, pool table, foosball table, gaming console and a walk out to patio overlooking water.
Beautiful and clean large natural spring fed pond great for swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding and fishing. Pond is stocked with largemouth bass, bluegill, black crappie, and channel catfish. You are welcome to keep and clean anything you catch or simply release. Small fishing boat with trolling motor, anchor, seat cushions, and life jackets is provided.
"The Rec" is an additional 3000 square foot building available for rent a few steps away from the main house. This building has a kitchenette, half bath, and plenty of indoor space for nighttime and weatherproof activities. Play a round of golf on the simulator offering almost limitless courses. Basketball court with adjustable rim height to suit all ages. Darts, bags, pinball, arcade games, infinity gaming table, and putting green provide hours of indoor fun. A one-time fee of $500 covers 24-hour access to this building for your entire stay. All machines are set to "free play" so there are no additional charges, no coins necessary. Rec can be viewed on arrival and rented at that time, booked now by contacting host, or guests can wait and decide to rent during their stay.

Our goal at Summerfell Resort is to provide the best possible experience for you while maintaining the expansive property and caring for our livestock. To achieve this, our family will be on-site as needed. We strive to respect your privacy and will not enter the pool area or main house unless requested. Thank you for the understanding and we look forward to your stay with us!--

VRBO policy requires us to state that we have security cameras on the exterior of the premises. These cameras cover outbuildings, dock, pool and pool deck including spa. If you have any concerns please contact us.

Wonderful property and people

Amazing Property
This is a truly amazing property which was ideal for our large family. There were activities for all of our multigenerational family - pool; outdoor kitchen and multiple decks; several fire-pits; playground with large sand play area, in-ground trampoline; rec building with gym, arcade games, video golf, putting green; lake that is well stocked with trophy fish and all fishing supplies provided, paddle boards, kayaks, fishing boat, paddle boat, life jackets; hiking trails; petting zoo area with goats and chickens; indoor pool room, foosball, card rooms, closets full of toddler toys and games. Our three adult children with their eight kids ranged in age from 17 to 4 months and they all found many activities to keep themselves entertained whether it was rainy or sunny. We will be back again!

Family fun at Summerfell
We were very happy with the property. There was plenty for the family to do. Everything we needed seemed to be available. The weather was perfect, so we spent allot of time in the pool and hot tub. We had plenty of room. We're going to book it again next year.

Best place ever!
Jack and Lori were fabulous hosts. The listing didn’t come close to describing the wonderful setting, home, grounds and amenities! Our family, age 4-62, all had plenty of options for entertainment and activities. Toys, games, gaming systems, movies, pool toys, boats, fishing poles/equipment etc etc all over the top! The goats/chickens were fun to see and feed. The kitchen was well supplied. The rec center was an added bonus with virtual golf, pickle ball and lots of arcade games. And as promised by Jack, we did catch fish! And they weren’t small! Thanks for helping us make great memories with our sons/daughter in “loves” and grandsons!

Perfect Property & Perfect Hosts
Thank you for sharing your property and your chickens and goats with us! The house is perfect as is the lake and pool area. The owners thought of every little detail to make our stay perfect. The beds are so comfortable, the pool is inviting, and the house is impeccably maintained and decorated by truly great people. We caught 100 fish over 3 days. My only fear is that you spoiled us so much you will be the standard by which all future VRBO stays will be judged and I know it is a bar they won't be able to reach. Thank you again for your hospitality! I wish I could give you 10000 stars instead of 5!

Great place for Families
This place has something for everyone and was the most well stocked vacation rental we have ever had! Everything from baby needs to fishing gear was there. So much to do too! Even though it rained on us a few times there was plenty to keep everyone busy from the game room, the many toys for toddlers, the movie theater, kayaking, paddle boat, paddle board, fishing, and the rec building with arcade games, basketball, golf and more. The kids helped collect eggs every morning that we got to use, and pet the goats. And of course the swimming pool was a hit between the rains. There are plenty of beach towels and pool toys, and lots of life jackets for the lake. There is plenty of refrigerator and freezer space for your food and drinks. There was also baby equipment such as bassinet, pack n plays, activity bouncy seats, monitor and potty chairs if you need them. The outdoor seating area is great with a huge grill and counter area for fixing and eating meals poolside. This place is Amazing and we would love to go back!

My family and I was there for 4 nights. We celebrated Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, and Christmas while we were there. The house has absolutely everything any family would need. If for some reason it doesn’t have it, the owners are easily reachable and will bring it immediately. Trying to figure out when we can go back already. Great house. Great property. Great owners.

Fun family get away.
This home is a lovely escape. It was better in person than the photos. We really enjoyed the lake, home, and the pool. The beds were extremely comfortable. The home had everything needed for our get away. Lots of extras. Home is well thought out for all ages. Host is avaliable if needed and owners were very accommodating. The lake is well maintained and the trails around it are beautiful. One may want water shoes for the lake area. Just any fyi for travelers...our phones didn’t work at the location. It ended up being postive. We spent more time playing and unplugged. There is internet so phone use is still possible. We are very happy! Hopefully, we can come again.
