Anytime of year, the Nest is the perfect spot for those looking to unplug and escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life at our lakefront property. Every season has its own beauty.
Sip your favorite beverage on the upper deck or cook that perfect meal on the propane grill while enjoying the sounds of nature and views of the glistening lake between the trees. Take a leisurely walk around the neighborhood loop. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled for a wild turkey, deer, groundhog, fox, raccoon, turtle, frog bunny or salamander.
The property offers approximately 2000 sf of living space, and will sleep 10 comfortably. The main level features an open concept kitchen/ living room with propane fireplace. The kitchen is equipped with all the essentials, many spices, condiments, filtered water at both the refrigerator and at the sink. There is an additional refrigerator on the lower level for extra cold storage. The main floor features a bedroom with king size bed, full bathroom and laundry facilities. The loft area features 2 queen beds, 2 twin beds.
Lower level features a separate master bedroom with king size bed (with additional folding cot in closet), a full bathroom large open area with additional couch, recliner and T.V. (dvds only) a pub table and stools, the second refrigerator and full size pool table. The lower level has walkout to fire pit area in the backyard and a dirt path that leads down to the lake.
Since we value our lake time, there is currently no WIFI or cable here at the Nest, but we do have kayaks (2) with life vests, fishing poles (2) and plenty of pool noodles to use during your stay. Spend your rainy days or evenings playing one of the many board games we offer with your kids or watch one of many movies available. The Nest is the perfect place to reconnect with family and friends, enjoy quality time together and make memories that with last a lifetime. We love our time at Rough River and hope you will as well.
Rent a pontoon for the day at Nick's Boat Dock or head over to Rough River State Park to enjoy the beach, tennis or a hike on their nature trail. Great place for families and friends to come together.

    Perfect place for group of people. This is the second time we have stayed here and will definately book again. Location is perfect. Right on the lake. Close to state dock. House has everything you need. Games, pool table, fire pit, well equipped kitchen and laundry.

    House was clean and neat. Perfect for a girls away weekend. Would recommend to all my friends. The lake was a bit further from the house than expected. But no problem walking down the golf path to the lake. Convenient to boat docks and gas for boat. Convenient to nice restaurant at state resort Park.
