Other Things to Note:
Our Shoreline Suite is the perfect place for an elevated getaway. With its location being closest to the entry and furthest from the beach, it has a limited beach view and experiences some road noise. To combat any potential discomfort, we have provided the suite with a small noise machine that you have use of during your stay should you wish to. Our suite used to be the managers quarters, so it is attached to the space that was previously the office. There is a door that connects the suite to the office space that is locked in both directions with a different lock. Our office space is used sparingly throughout the week to access supplies, but is rarely occupied. The Loft, one of our other units, is in the same building as the office. From time to time you may hear some upstairs noise or a toilet flushing, though it is minimal.
Lakeshore Resort grounds are a shared space with all guests staying at the resort. Areas like the BBQ grill and picnic table, as well as, the beach and the parking lot are all included in these shared spaces. Our Lakeshore Resort team members maintain the grounds daily, keeping the space tidy and clean during your stay.
Lakeshore Resort does not have boats or watercraft available to rent. With no dock, if you should rent any watercraft or boats, there is a boat launch nearby and boats can be anchored off shore. If you have small watercraft items like kayaks or canoes, they can be pulled up and stored on our private beach for the duration of your stay.
The parking lot is a shared space with numbered spots for your unit you are staying in. It is a small parking lot and there is not enough room for a boat trailer or trailer parking. If you are looking for a place off site to park a boat trailer, Timber Ridge has accepted parking in the past and is minutes away. Be sure to give them a call for usage and rates.
There are cameras on the premises that faces the parking lots and office area.
