Spectacular house in an amazing location. Such a great spot - easy access to the beach, hiking, cycling and restaurants. We stayed for a month and would have happily stayed longer. Hopefully we will return.

About the host

Hosted by Michelle and Claude

Host profile image
The property is managed by Claude and Michelle from Annecy Lacmontagne Properties in Annecy. French and Kiwi, Lake Annecy has been our playground for many years. With backgrounds in hospitality, architecture and design, we love looking after our owners homes on Lake Annecy!

Why they chose this property

We both love nature, walking, running, swimming, skiing, cycling... and we love Lake Annecy vibres: being healthy, keeping fit, enjoying nature in all season and respecting it for all the unique gifts it offers us everyday.

What makes this property unique

Our properties are all unique, full of character and of history. "La Scierie" is a beautifully converted 16th century wood-cutting mill formerly powered by a water-wheel. The mechanism is still accessible and visible in the house. The mill was fed by the Nant d'Oy, a river born from the waterfall just above the village of Angon, only a few meters from the house. The Nant d'Oy runs along the property: you are therefore rocked by the sound of water all day long. A few hundred meters down the road, the rivers feeds into the lake. This is where the public beach is set: a lovely beach with trees and shallow waters, platforms to jump from, a lovely cafe with live music in summer and lots of very nice restaurants nearby. The village of angon is very small, quite, rocked by the sound of the river and waterfall, but popular in summer for the easy access to forested walks, waterfall and to the lake only a few hundred meters down the road. It is an ideal place for the nature-immersed yet close to the lake holiday.
