Lakefront Living at Its Best — Rare Lot-and-a-Half Opportunity at Ginger Cove Lake
This is a prime spot on a private cove with a panoramic view of the entire lake.
Perfectly positioned on a rare lot-and-a-half in a private open cove at Ginger Cove Lake, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 3-bath home delivers panoramic views spanning the full length of the lake, exceptional outdoor living, and true turnkey lake lifestyle living just minutes from Omaha.
Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, the property features two private beach access points, including a zero-entry shoreline ideal for paddle boarding, kayaking, swimming, and effortless lake days. Positioned within a protected cove, the seawall is naturally shielded from heavy surf, creating calmer water and a more enjoyable waterfront experience.
Ginger Cove itself is one of the area’s hidden gems — a crystal-clear, spring-fed, sand-bottom lake meticulously maintained by its community. The lake supports everything from surf boats and jet skis to pontoons, fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding, and leisurely sunset cruises.
Inside, the home offers a clean, neutral aesthetic allowing the lake views to take center stage. Expansive windows fill the open-concept living and dining spaces with natural light and frame breathtaking water views throughout the home.
The kitchen and dining area flow seamlessly to a shaded patio surrounded by mature trees — the perfect setting for quiet mornings, coffee, and relaxed afternoons by the water.
The primary suite offers private deck access, lake views, and a walk-in closet, creating a peaceful retreat. Upstairs, the loft bedroom features its own balcony, generous storage, and flexible guest accommodations.
The lower level is designed for entertaining with a comfortable TV/lounge space, large buffet-style serving area, and three refrigerators — ideal for hosting lake weekends, gatherings, and summer celebrations.
Outdoor living is where this property truly stands apart. A spacious upper deck, shaded lower patio, expansive side yard, and wired tiki torch lighting create multiple areas to gather, dine, relax, and enjoy evening sunsets across the lake.
Additional features include:
2-car garage with attic storage
irrigation system
mature landscaping
expansive entertaining areas
exceptional lake frontage and views
The Ginger Cove community is known for its friendly, active lake lifestyle, where neighbors gather, walk, boat, fish, and enjoy the lake year-round. Community amenities and traditions include a common area playground, annual 3rd of July fireworks display, 4th of July parade, active social committee, and welcoming neighborhood atmosphere that make Ginger Cove a truly special place to live and gather.
With its rare lot-and-a-half footprint, protected cove positioning, dual beach access, panoramic lake views, and true turnkey lake lifestyle, this property represents a unique opportunity rarely available on Ginger Cove Lake.
Just 15 minutes from Elkhorn and 20 minutes from Omaha.
This is more than a home — it’s a lifestyle.

What the owner loves about this home
The view of lake from this lot and a half is arguably the best on the lake and the side yard is great for the kids, entertaining and gives you space to add on to the house if you want to expand. We love the 4th of July activities at GC and love spending the summers here! Many family memories!
