Gorgeous Waterfront 4Bed Home on the Channel from Silver Lake and the Sand Dunes

Welcome to the 5-star rated Silver Creek Hideaway. This home is on Silver Creek (aka 'The Channel'). It is the 6th home in from Silver Lake. You're going to love it!

Our driveway is large enough to accommodate up to 4 vehicles, or up to 3 vehicles with ONE trailer. Unfortunately there is not a good option for parking additional vehicles or trailers, so please evaluate your parking needs prior to booking. If you violate this house rule, your booking will be canceled.
