Inn Details
We invite you to come to our home and share with us the wonderful experience of life in Porters Lake. Our lakeside home is nestled into the hillside. Take a stroll through the many gardens and down the path to our “Boathouse” that sits on the water’s edge. The view from both the house and dock is spectacular!
If you are lucky you may get a chance to watch a bald eagle soar overhead. There are several resident bald eagles that patrol the lake daily. Ospreys, loons, ducks, geese, wood peckers and herons are also very common to see. There is an abundance of wildlife!
