Good location between main Silver Lake downtown area, Lightshouse beach, and Silver Lake Dunes. We had 4 adults and 4 kids. The house was perfect size for that group. Silver Lake is directly next to the property with a dock that you can wlk out on and check out the lake. We didn’t have a boat but there is dock access for a boat. We had to clean up the outside area and the grill a little to use but wasn’t terrible. Plenty of parking for 2 trucks and trailers with 2 side by sides.
