Lakefront/Private Cove, Hot Tub, Boats, Woods, & 3 Beaches | House in Montross

3 Bedroom House in Montross
Welcome to the Butterfly Effect! Recharge at this tranquil getaway. 2.5 wooded acres with a private dock and cove, a short paddle away from the lake beach with a swimming dock and sandy beach! Fishing, swimming, and floating all on the protected freshwater lake. We have boats for your use and theater space & hot tub to wind down at night after dining on our deck. Picnic at our private Shark Tooth Beach, watch Osprey & Eagles fish the Potomac and collect 15-million-old fossilized shark teeth!
When you arrive look for the butterfly-shaped roof and make yourselves at home at The Butterfly Effect!
As you pull into the circular driveway you will notice a small set of stairs going up to the game lawn. There is a fire pit and picnic table. Also, a pump and hose near the driveway to wash the sand off your feet after returning from a day at one of our beaches!
The top floor has two bedrooms and a full bath—the first sleeps two in a double and the second sleeps four with two single beds and a double bed. The main floor has another bedroom sleeping two and another full bath. We also have a pack-in-play for your little one if needed.
The hanging fireplace is the home's centerpiece, (please burn only duraflame logs) waiting for your memories to be made while playing games at the game table or taking a nap!
The sunroom has a dining table big enough for the entire group to gather around and a cozy reading room everyone's favorite spot! It also has a comfortable queen pullout sofa. Off the sun and game room is the dining deck-my favorite place at the lake! Seating for the entire group and grill area!
In the basement is the theater space! Bring your popcorn and enjoy the 120" screen! There is also a foosball table and laundry room.
You will find the laundry room also has life jackets for every size infant-adult.
Outside we have a hot tub (operated seasonally September-May) seating area and a hammock to relax in.
A private dock to enjoy your mornings. We are the only ones in the cove- enjoy fishing off the dock or paddling on one of our boats! We have a large canoe, an adult sit-on kayak, an adult sit-in kayak, a paddleboard as well as a children's kayak!
Lake Independence is a warm freshwater lake, it is tested regularly for safety and only allows electric boats. We swim April-October and do polar bear plunges in the winter! Bring your favorite floaties and enjoy the peace of our quiet gem of a neighborhood! You will see cranes, bald eagles, and osprey fishing in the lake and soaring overhead!
If you can bring yourselves to leave the home the neighborhood offers excellent amenities! Shark Tooth Beach is everyone's favorite- take your beach chairs, book, and umbrella and enjoy a day hunting for shark tooth teeth and many other millions of year-old fossils! There are picnic tables too and fishing is allowed in the river! The water is brackish and if you get lucky you can see dolphins coming up from the bay!! We crab there as well and occasionally there are jellyfish to be aware of. There is also Hidden Beach which is a bit of a hike and then a scramble down on boulders (only go at low tide!) and you can walk along the cliffs!
One of our favorites is Lake Beach. It also has picnic tables, grills, play sand, a pier, and a floating dock to play all day. This is a short paddle from our cove just across the lake! We paddle over and have a pirate breakfast with our kids!
Note: All neighborhood amenities if you drive and park your car need to have your guest pass displayed on your dash. The neighborhood is private, including all amenities, and is patrolled by security. Your passes will be waiting for you at the cottage!
