Relax with a beautiful lake view

Serene setting on beautiful and quiet Lake Hayward. Quick walk to the beach. Spacious deck for dining and relaxing. Great place to unwind and get away from the everyday dull drums. Clean and roomy.

A lovely stay on the Lake
It is always a joy to stay at Pegs home on Lane Hayward and we look forward to our return each year. She takes great care to make sure we have a comfortable stay and enjoy her home. Spotless and cozy and lovely through and through.

Just Relax
Rented with a dear friend of mine who lives in Florida. We don’t get to see each other often and neither of us has taken a full week off from work in two years. This destination was exactly what we needed! A few days at the beach, reading on the screened in porch on rainy days, and enjoying some of the local restaurants. Excellent place to forget about work and simply be.

Wonderful experience
The property was extremely comfortable for everyone. We had extended family so the social areas for talking were excellent, indoor and out. The kitchen was fully stocked for cooking, and had a grill. Owner was extremely responsive and helpful when we needed to contact with questions.
