Thinking about a place to get away from it all — but wondering what price level is right for you? These three open houses at Innsbrook offer a great opportunity to explore everything from a first-time buyer starter cabin to the latest in lakeside living.

For the last 40 years, Innsbrook's A-frame cabins have been known affectionately as "Big-Kid Treehouses." And their vistas vary, whether the cabin is tucked amid the 8,000 acres of forest or overlooking one of Innsbrook's 100 lakes. Discover that unique treehouse charm today (Sunday) and next Saturday, when you can explore three open houses just 30 minutes west of Chesterfield.

For those looking for their first Innsbrook cabin, the two-bedroom, one-bath A-frame at 396 West Scheffborg Drive is perfect. Pictured above, it sits on a large 3.4-acre wooded lot just a short walk from a community sand beach and features an extended deck and updated floor coverings. You will enjoy cool fall evenings by the wood-burning stove in the great room with a wall of windows bringing in fall colors. It is attractively priced at $125,000 and will be open today and next Saturday, October 1 from 12 to 2 p.m.

Also open is the bright, cheery lakefront A-frame on 2.4 wooded acres at 661 Wild Heron Drive, which offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms, large sleeping loft and spacious great room with full stone fireplace. There are a variety of spaces to enjoy the natural surroundings: from the gorgeous screened-in porch and large deck to the private dock on Blue Heron Lake. It is priced at $224,900 and will be open today and next Saturday, October 1 from 2 to 4 p.m.

Finally, Innsbrook's A-frame cabin display has all the latest in lakeside comfort. Situated on beautiful Lake Grendel, 2631 Grendel Drive will be open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. today and next weekend as well. Priced at $438,500.

These and a wide variety of other cabins, homes, condos and lots are offered through Innsbrook Properties; browse Innsbrook's listings online today at www.innsbrook-resort.com.
