FIVE REASONS TO VISIT PIPER HOUSE ON LAKE SHAFER:
1. Truly a unique place. Enjoy all the very best of lakefront living/boating.
2. Nothing else nice enough for your tastes? We get it...that is why we built this place! Fully stocked, totally comfortable, high end everything. You won't want to leave. There is nothing like it around.
3. Have a big/diverse age group of people you'd like to vacation with? We've got you covered from everyone from infants to elderly. Babies: we've got an infant and can offer all the baby/child proofing supplies you need. Kids & Teenagers: they are hard to please sometimes. Not here. Adults: Elderly: home is on one level, at the top of the hill.
4. Family reunion? Get together for a close group of old friends? Nothing creates memories like a lake vacation. Bring your boat down, toast old memories by the fire pit and let all the cousins play together at the amusement park, beach and wooded grounds together.
5. Just need some peace and quiet? Maybe you need a working vacation to actually get something worthwhile done—finally start that business, write that novel, work on your album, get to coding your startup product or just catch up on all the projects you really care about (which you never seem to have time for). Life is short—do what you love! Our high-speed internet with views overlooking the lake can provide exactly the tools and quiet inspiration you need to spark your creativity—winter, spring, summer or fall. Stay for a weekend, full week or month (discounts available for multi-week rentals in the off-seasons)…whatever it takes. Life is short. Live it.
