Mallards Nest on Lay Lake: Game Room & Boat Ramp

Looking for the perfect family getaway—or a peaceful escape with friends? Mallards Nest on Lay Lake is your lakeside sanctuary, nestling you on 176 feet of pristine waterfront. This three bedroom, 2.5 bath haven sleeps up to eight and overflows with duck themed charm and amenities for every generation. Whether you’re casting a line off the dock, kayaking through the reeds, roasting s’mores at sunset, napping in the patio swing bed, or curling up by the firepit under a canopy of stars, you’re in for an unforgettable stay!

🦆 Indoor Oasis
Welcome to the Nest: As you step inside, subtle mallard motifs and green accents guide your eye straight to sweeping lake views. The two story living room—with its striking accent wall—flows into a chef’s kitchen outfitted with stainless appliances, a 5 ft island, and all the gadgets you would need to cook up a delicious meal. The eight seat dining table is perfect for family feasts, while the coffee bar—stocked with K cups, loose teas, sugars & creamers—gets your morning off to a flying start. Cozy up on the sofa, stream your favorite shows, or simply watch pontoons drift by.
