Tall Pines is comprised of two private living spaces (all yours!). A cottage with 4 sleeping areas and a separate loft with two bedrooms. Located in the midst of a 22-acre hardwood forest. Pearl Lake, an 800-acre spring-fed lake, is a virtual wildlife preserve, with bald eagles, blue heron, and loons nesting here. The swimming, kayaking, fishing, and hiking are excellent. Some boats are available including two paddle boats and kayak. We have a small beach area, smaller than usual due to exceptionally high lake water this year. New air conditioning unit. Comfortable living rooms with big-screen TV. Dining area and well-equipped kitchen with dishwasher. Linens, towels, and other amenities are provided. A large deck surrounds the cottage, great for dining outside and catching beautiful sunsets.
The main cottage has an open floor plan. There is a queen-size bed in an alcove, with a screen separating it from the living room. There is a king-size trundle bed on the four seasons porch. There are two bedrooms, one with queen-size and one with double bed downstairs, and two full baths with showers. The separate loft has two bedrooms with queen-size beds, a kitchenette, and a large sitting area with TV, an excellent haven for grandparents, and a quiet space for young children to nap.
