Description

Covered Boat Slip with Hoist for a Pontoon and Hot Tub!

Charlie's Treehouse is a beautiful Craftsman home with a large welcoming front porch overlooking beautiful grounds and a koi pond. It has the right amount of privacy to feel like you are truly in a treehouse, with visions of the lake and dock from the home. It is truly an incredibly unique and inviting property and a wonderful place to stay with your family and friends!

The main level holds an open living room with gas fireplace, large flat screen TV (w/Roku) and built-in bookcases which house all the classic novels you could ever imagine! There is a great reading nook that faces the lake or enjoy your morning coffee (or wine) and watch the wildlife on the property and take in the lake views. The well-stocked kitchen has a custom full-length island and built-in breakfast nook. There are 2 large dining areas: one inside and one outside on the deck overlooking the property. There are 2 bedrooms on the main level: the master bedroom has a king bed, large closet, and an on-suite full bathroom with walk-in shower. The secondary bedroom also has a king bed with a large walk-in closet. A full bathroom with tub and shower combo is down the hall, and the laundry room with full sized washer and dryer complete the main floor.

The lower level has an additional bedroom (2 sets of bunk beds), and a full bathroom. Family room, with queen pullout sleeper sofa, is stocked with 700 DVDs, a large flat screen TV (with Roku), plenty of board games and playing cards. Both lower rooms have access to a massive flagstone covered patio with a wood burning fire-pit area, sitting area and a paver walkway that leads to the secluded hot tub.

Follow the paver pathway down to the deep-water cove and dock which has a party deck, dock house, a large floating dock for boat tie-up, a large stationary dock, and a covered boat slip with lift for a pontoon boat (4000lb max). There is a fridge and freezer in the dock house with a Bose speaker to play music; just bring your own aux cord to plug in your phone and stream your favorite tunes.

MOUNTAIN VIEW SHORES is a lovely development with many year-round homes, it features a private boat ramp area where you may park your boat trailer for the duration of your stay. It has paved roads and central water system. Ideal for walkers and joggers. Lake location is supreme being near the mountain and the dam at the deepest, cleanest part of the lake. The land was originally owned by the Appalachian Power Company (which owns the lake) and a group of 10 investors from Bedford bought the land from the Power Company in the late 1970's and developed the subdivision comprised of over 400 lots, offering the land for sale one section per year, selling out in 4 years.

Reviews

We really appreciate the real oak woodwork, the design, the landscaping, the attention to all sorts of detailed beauty like the stone patio.

-September 2023 
There are no words to describe our experience.  The entire process was painless.  The home was perfect for our vacation.  The Sandy beach was one of our favorite places.  We took advantage of the dock and the fire pit.  And who doesn’t like a game of pool.  There were so many extras we did not anticipate.  The sand toys, floats, fishing buckets….on and on.  The kitchen was so well stocked!  We intend on revisiting and now looking for another home close by as we have more family members that want to join us in 2024!!   5 star indeed!! 

 -August 2023 
This place is great, especially if you spend a lot of time outside. The landscaping and the dock are absolutely awesome.

Charlie's Treehouse was INCREDIBLE. Everything during our stay was wonderful. Would not change a thing. :-)

Home is beautiful and well stocked!

Beautiful Home! We appreciate the craftsmanship, the creative design, art everywhere, everything well made. The wood floors and furniture are gorgeous. the landscape is amazing such attention to detail! We love the goldfish ponds, the outdoor seating, the fantastic dock. Favorite spot: reading corner in the treetops. BRAVO! 

 -June 2023 
From beginning to end Charlie's Tree House was a dream rental. It is stocked with nearly everything you could need for your lake vacation. Not just the kayaks and paddleboards, but in the kitchen too! We have rented at SML for several years and this was our first trip to Charlie's Tree House. We always come prepared with kitchen tools that we will need to make food during the week. Well next year the only thing I'll bring is an ice cream scoop! This house has it all! From a full spice rack to the small appliances and containers to pack up snacks to take down to the water. The owners have stocked this house well! The dock is a dream! With 2 huge docks (floating and stationary) there is enough room for everyone to spread out and even a shaded portion under the "party deck" to cool off on hot days. The house is set deep in the cove of Mountain View Shores so you don't get any wake off the main body of the lake, making paddle boarding a breeze and swimming with our young kids safe and easy. Thank you Lake Retreat for another wonderful summer vacation at SML! 

 -August 2022 
 Great use of kayaks, extra fridges, dock, toys, internet, streaming, Thank you for everything!
