Elder's Rest now stands on land that was once used for a smaller building used for canning in the summer. In the 1980's, when that building became less useable, Jim Elder, a Building Trades teacher at the time, built the cabin in its place. The wood covering the living room walls, and also that was used to make part of the island are the original building.
Our favorite feature is that the small stream that runs through the property runs under the deck in the back, giving an opportunity to sit outside and hear the peacefulness of the running water.

At The Bryan House and Elder's Rest, we believe that everyone deserves a memorable vacation. Our vision is to provide exceptional vacation rental experiences that exceed our guests' expectations.
Whether you are listening to the babbling brook, getting ready for a day on the lake, grilling your fresh catch on the deck, or gathered around with family and friends, we are confident you will love this home as much as we do!
Elder's Rest is on the same property as Bryan House. It is smaller, and has only one bedroom, but can sleep up to four guests. Bryan House and Elder's Rest can be rented separately or together. If rented together there is a 20 percent discount.
