Fall Foliage + Winter Wildlife Lake House Retreat

Leaf watchers paradise in fall, nestled in mature oaks with views over the pristine lake lined with explosive colors. With each passing season the charm of this natural lake setting seems to enhance. In winter this secret gem is a bald eagle mecca. Watch them, by the dozen sitting on the lake ice or soaring past floor-to-ceiling windows while sipping coffee next to the fireplace. Activities -hiking, ice skating, cross country skiing, etc. but most people stay in, letting nature come to them!
