Dowling House | Beautiful Lakefront Home- Sleeps 20

8 Bedroom House in Dowling

ABOUT OUR PROPERTY:
Our house sits on 6 wooded acres, and from it’s hillside perch, enjoys broad views overlooking Bristol Lake. The property is at the end of a quiet, dead-end drive. It has frontage on Stamm Lake (a 4½ acre spring-fed pond), and from Stamm, the property line follows a stream which flows year-round down to Bristol Lake, on which the property has 125 feet of frontage. Bristol is a 165-acre all-sports lake and is excellent for fishing, swimming and all manner of watersports. We have a sandy beach which drops-off gradually until it reaches a depth of around 3 feet (appx. 20’ from shore). From there the depth falls-off more quickly, eventually reaching a depth of 45 feet at closer to 100 yards from shore. As such, the beach and lakeshore are relatively-friendly to younger children (although we recommend life jackets for non-swimmers). We have a raft which is anchored in deeper water (very safe for diving), we also have a dock to park a boat or to get young anglers closer to the many bass & bluegill which hover at the drop-off. Between the house & the shore we have a large grassy yard with enough trees to give some comfortable shade in the sunny summer afternoons. We have a fire pit on the beach. The yard is large enough for whiffle-ball, volleyball, croquet or practically any variety of other yard games. The 6 acres of woods have a series of short trails which are fun for a short afternoon stroll.
ABOUT THE HOUSE:
The house is recently-constructed (completed in 2015), built with premium materials and systems. At appx. 4,300sf, it has 8 bedrooms, 3½ baths and enough beds to sleep 20 (see plans in photo section). Our kitchen has large areas granite countertop, allowing many participants in food preparation. We have both a large and a small refrigerator, a double-oven, a microwave, a dishwasher, ample cabinets and a walk-in pantry. We have a large dining table as well as folding picnic tables and an umbrella table on the deck (which overlook the lake). There are areas to sit & talk on every level. The lower level has a rec room equipped with both a ping-pong and a pool table. This room opens thru 2 sliding doors onto a patio (which also overlooks the lake). A TV room on the upper level is great for kids watching late-night movies.
ABOUT THE BRISTOL LAKE COMMUNITY:
Bristol Lake offers a wonderful mix of active recreation and quiet relaxation. Many of the property-owners on the lake live here year-round. It is our desire to offer this vacation rental to families which will appreciate the serenity of this community and be respectful of our neighbors. Keeping noise levels low (especially after dark), maintaining slow speeds on the entry drive, and keeping the grounds in good order are all elements of making a visit satisfying to all involved. If you choose to book with us, we ask that you make a commitment to be a good neighbor.

Summary: Our group of 8 senior women stayed for 4 nights. We love to travel together but we prefer to each have our own bedroom. This house was perfect for this. There is a large table in the dining area that was perfect for playing games. The kitchen was well-stocked and spacious. The lake views were fantastic. We had a great time.

Summary: This lake home is amazing! It has enough bedrooms and beds to comfortably accommodate us, our children, grandchildren, and new great-granddaughter, seventeen people in all. Every bedroom has a view of the lake! The house is well stocked with everything you might need. There’s plenty of seating for our meals and games. The house is beautifully decorated and was spotlessly clean when we arrived. We enjoyed the beach and swimming area, and some of our family enjoyed fishing every day. The neighborhood is very quiet. We plan to rent here again next summer, and hopefully for many more summers.

Summary: Our whole family, from my husband and I, our kids and their spouses and grandkids could not have enjoyed staying here more! It was clean and the space was big and open and the property offered just about anything you could want! Big grassy lawn, nice sandy beach, raft to swim out to, kayaks and canoe--it was great! Sue was an amazing host! Very friendly, helpful, and prompt in getting back when we had questions. We definitely want to stay here again!

Summary: The property and location were beautiful. The house itself was the best equipped of any we’ve ever stayed in. The only negative thing was the road going in had lots of pot holes and was rather rough but it’s a shared road. So not The owners fault necessarily

Summary: The lakehouse was a dream!! It had all the space you could ask for and more! A kitchen with everything you need which was great for my brothers who are chefs! Beautiful views from the house porches. Our family had a few dogs and they had a blast swimming and laying around the yard. The little beach was great for my younger nephews to be able to enjoy walking right in!. My stepdad brought his pontoon, but you can rent theirs! We took the boat out and caught so many good sized sunfish, that we had enough to fry up one night for our family trip of 15! The house is truly beautiful, but not so overdone that you dont feel comfortable in it! There are a lot of stairs, but it was great exercise! And a bedroom option in basement for easy entry from the driveway for my parents who have a harder time with stairs. Awesome getaway and would definitely come back!!

Summary: The house was perfect for our family. The layout of the kitchen and livingroom allowed our family of 14 to be together while playing games or eating at the same time at one table. The kitchen was well stocked. The owner was readily available whenever we had a question. Our family would love to return.
