On the shores of Lake Glenville, Deer Run Cottage emerges as poetry written in timber and native stone, a love letter to the landscape that holds it. The main level unfolds with the kitchen, dining room, and living room merging against the backdrop of mountain and lake views. Through floor-to-ceiling windows, the lake becomes a piece of art that changes with every hour and every season. On the main floor, the primary bedroom with its fireplace—feels like sleeping inside a painting. Wake to water, sleep to stars, dream to the gentle percussion of waves finding the shore. Three distinct outdoor spaces grace the main level, each with its own personality. The covered porch whispers of long dinners and longer conversations. The open deck calls to sun worshippers and star gazers. The screened sleeping porch off the primary suite promises afternoon naps. The upper level holds two rooms: one with a queen bed and a bathroom with a clawfoot tub, and a bonus room with its window seat. The lower level bedrooms open like jewelry boxes onto the lakefront porch. Four bedrooms, two flex rooms, and five and half baths allow space for family and friends to gather or scatter as mood and moment demand. Numbers cannot capture the real equation: how a building becomes a feeling, how architecture becomes memory, how a cottage becomes the place dreams are made of. From the private dock, to the sandy beach, or separate stone steps to a wading rock perfect for children or dogs, cool summer afternoons come alive with the thrill of lake adventures. Whether you're paddling across the pristine waters, taking the boat out for a sunset cruise, or simply diving into the crystal-clear depths, Lake Glenville becomes your personal playground at this elevated paradise. Deer Run Cottage understands human nature: we need both connection and solitude, grandeur and intimacy, civilization and wilderness. Here, morning coffee tastes better, because gazing at the view has replaced screen time. Sleep comes easier because the water sings lullabies through open windows. In a world of manufactured experiences, Deer Run Cottage offers something increasingly rare: authenticity. Luxury that whispers rather than shouts, elegance that simply exists rather than poses, beauty that rewards attention rather than demands it. Some places you visit. Some places visit you back. Deer Run Cottage belongs to the latter. Come see for yourself! *Broker is relation to Seller*
