About this property

Position "A"........Perfect Family Get Away

Recently renovated inside and out- this lakefront home is located in the desirable community of Candlewood Knolls. An easy 90 minute drive from the city, this property is perfect for extended family get-togethers, a couple of families with kids looking for some lake fun, or a few adult couples needing a few days away.

The property sits directly on a calm part of the lake and extends out to South Beach, a private Knolls beach with child-friendly access to the water from the sandy beach. Bring your child monitor and hang out on the beach while the little's are napping.

Our manicured property leads you to the private deck with a Solo Stiove, Adirondack chairs and a serene sitting area overlooking a very quiet part of the lake. The Solo Stove is a great way to end your day on Candlewood Lake.

Enjoy many a meal on the outdoor teak table with string lighting to set just the right vibe for a tranquil and fun family meal. Our awnings are retractable if need but provides the perfect amount of shade to enjoy morning coffee.

Indoors, the master bedroom has a brand new deck overlooking Candlewood Lake that avails the perfect sunrise daily. I can't think of a better place to enjoy some morning coffee. A pocket door reveals the master bathroom with a double sink and beautiful glass-enclosed shower with natural stone flooring,

The guest room has a nautical double bed that sleeps 2.

Our Bunk Room is perfect for all of the kiddos... L-shaped bunk beds sleep 4 plus a single bed allows for 5 BFF's or cousins to have a fun sleepover party!

A full bath in the hallway with a tub and shower with subway tiles is perfect for washing away the sandy toes. .
Stackable full-size washer dryer is also on the second floor hidden behind a pocket door.

Relax, read and just hang out in "a room with a view" with 2 6 x 8 picture windows that offer spectacular views of the lake. This sitting room has 3 cozy couches and a fireplace with a TV mounted above.

The main floor, which has french doors leading out to the lake, has a 9 foot rustic farm table that all can break bread together. The fully stocked kitchen with all of the comforts of home has a butcher block countertop and stainless appliances. A big cozy couch (which is a sleep sofa) can seat many to either hangout or watch a good movie on the TV that is mounted over the other fireplace.

Behind the sliding barn door is a bar area with a half bath and a perfect area for cocktails and conversation. Toys, games and other goodies for your littles are in the back area to keep your little ones occupied. A bar complete with barstools and plenty of storage for your weekly supplies during your stay.

While we could go on about the house... the community has plenty to offer to families. Just a short walk is a ball field, and bocci and horseshoe courts. Jungle gym, hoops court as well as a tennis court if you want to get away for an hour or so. The beach in the front of the house is the best though. Walk the kids down, and set up for the day.

Minimums: 6 night stay mid-May through Labor day

Note that it's very much a quiet family community. We want to share our home with families looking to make memories.

Beautiful house with terrific hosts!
This is a great home that is like a very well-stocked house! The owners go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. I own a VRBO so I know how much work, care and effort goes into this. You won’t be sorry - book right away. Thanks for an amazing holiday on a beautiful serene glass like lake. We will be back!

College friends weekend getaway
Stay was fantastic. We had never been to Candlewood Lake before and found it to be a great area, and neighborhood for this particular house. Everything was super clean, with towels rolled up on the beds for weekend use. Great kitchen table to seat many people for a great time together. Thanks for allowing us to share in the use of your fantastic home.

Absolutely Perfect
We truly enjoyed our stay at the Dialed Inn. The home was beautifully decorated, super clean, and included everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. We loved paddle boarding, roasting marshmallows, swimming at the beach next door, and boating. The kitchen included pancake mix, coffee, and all the fixings for s’mores. Bill was super easy to communicate with. Next time we will plan to stay longer. It made my heart happy to see my teens off their phones and playing with their cousins in the water.

About the host

Host profile image
We bought this lake house for a central gathering spot for our 6 kids to come and for their children to come in the future.
We got married on the lake in Oct 2019 with our ceremony and reception at the clubhouse at Candlewood Knolls.
We have put lots of TLC into this home to make sure that all who come feel at home and have everything at their fingertips.
We hope that the families that come and stay at Dialed Inn will make memories of their own that will last a lifetime.

What makes this property unique

Very Private lake front home, steps from a sandy beach. Perfect for all ages and will certainly make Lake memories that will last a lifetime.
