Slow mornings. Campfire nights. Family game nights. Lazy afternoons by the water.
These are the simple moments that make a lake getaway special.
We hope your stay inspires you to slow down, spend more time outside, and make memories with the people you love.
Whether you're planning another lake trip or bringing a little lake life home, we've gathered products inspired by the simple moments that make weekends at the lake so special.
Campfire Nights
Some of the best conversations happen after the sun goes down. Pull up a chair, roast a marshmallow, wrap up in a blanket, and stay outside just a little longer. These are a few simple things that help create those evenings wherever you are.
• These extra-long roasting sticks
• This s'mores caddy holds all the yummy essentials
• The perfect blanket to snuggle with by the fire
• These comfy camping chairs with pockets and cup holders
• A rechargeable lantern that's perfect for the deck
• This cozy sweatshirt will be your new best friend
Host Tip: Pick up marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers at the local Piggly Wiggly on your way in so you're ready for an evening by the fire.
Lake Days
Some of my favorite moments at the lake are the unplanned ones - the kids finding frogs along the shore, an afternoon that turns into an evening on the dock, or deciding to stay outside just a little longer. These are a few simple finds that help make those carefree lake days even easier to enjoy.
• Choose a different color towel for each family member to easily identify
• Capture moments on the lake while keeping your phone & essentials dry
• Lounge in a water hammock to stay cool on hot days
• This frog catching net will keep kids having fun outside all day
• This cute hat keeps the sun out of your face and easily fits in a beach bag
Host Tip: We always recommend packing a small dry bag for phones and keys if you're planning to kayak.

Not every lake day is sunny, but that doesn't mean it can't become a favorite memory. Slow down, make a cup of coffee, start a puzzle, and enjoy being together.
