*Summer Activities *
Lake Morris is steps from the backyard, ready for you to enjoy swimming, fishing, and boating in the full recreation areas. The main house pier on Lake Morris has a shallow entry shoreline located in the no-wake area of the lake that is for great swimming. Two kayaks, 1 stand up paddle board, pedal boat, lake raft, and life jackets are available on site for renter use to get out on the water. Paddle through the adjacent water channel (under the pedestrian footbridge) to Emerald Lake and enjoy a serene ride on the quiet, no-wake lake. Inquire about our pontoon rental for even more lake activities during your stay! Additional kayaks, stand up paddle boards, and boat rentals are available down the road at the Mt Morris Mill. A private neighborhood sandy beach is a short 3-minute walk over the pedestrian footbridge for even more lake fun options.
The Mt Morris lakes are a five-lake chain covering 172 acres of water. The five lakes are known from north to south as Lake Alsfon (A), Lake Russel (B), Lake Hannah (C), Lake Morris (D), and Emerald Lake (E), accessed by a channel under the foot bridge. We're located at the peninsula of Lake Morris and Emerald Lake with access to both lakes! There is a conveniently located public boat launch on Lake Morris at the Mt Morris Town Park and Boat Landing near the house. The park hosts a playground, volleyball courts, and shelter for gathering.
