Amazing property!
We stayed here for a girls weekend and the location was perfect! Walking distance to some restaurants and close to downtown and grocery stores. House was clean and well kept, beds were comfortable, linens provided were good quality. Kitchen had essentials for cooking. Overall, a wonderful stay and would book again!

Family Getaway
Great location! Loved the park that is right next to us along with the public beach and boat landing. Right across from the park is a nice bar with a patio overlooking the lake and less than a block away is a Dairy Freeze. Owner was very receptive to questions.

Great Location!
This spot right on the beach is a perfect family getaway. The beach at the property is so close to being level with the yard so there’s no stairs down the bank. Really nice place that has a nice layout for families. This location is within walking distance of the public beach, kayak rentals, restaurants,etc. We had a great time.

This was a good spot for a small family reunion. Lots of flexible sleeping spaces for all ages. The downstairs bathroom is very small, which made it challenging for some to use, but overall everything worked well.

Weekend getaway
We had a wonderful weekend getaway in Fairmont! The house was great - both spacious and clean! Wonderful beach out the back door with 3 kayaks available for us to use. It was great to be so close to the public beach, 2 parks, the aquatic park and an ice cream shop. We all had a great time! Having such a nice place to stay really made our weekend special. Thank you!

Great memories and time away
The cabin is cozy and comfortable for all of us. This property is perfect for our annual winter retreat. The cabin is spacious; kitchen and living room is great. We love coming here in January for the weekend to get away for some ice fishing and fun! The property doesn't disappoint! We'll be back next season. Thank you!

Perfect summer getaway
We booked this trip on a whim, finding it by searching for waterfront rentals that would work for a weekend escape. It ended up being just what we needed! It was the first family vacation we took with our son and we couldn't have pictured anything better. The home is in a great location, the owners super helpful and responsive, and the town is small yet big enough to have amenities accessible. We definitely plan to come back!

Great Place!
The home was very clean with ample space, well stocked and beautiful views of the lake. We enjoyed the beach in front of the house and the kids also liked the park and playground on the south side of the lake home. The owners were at the property right next door for most of the weekend and doublechecked with us a couple of times to make sure we were having a good time which was very nice of them. The chain of lakes that the rental unit is on is really fun and we even had a pontoon delivered and picked up by Hall Lake Cabins and Boat Rentals. It was a really fun weekend for us, our adult kids and our grandkids!

Great for Extended Family
Our second year here and once again we had a wonderful time. Our family included two children under three and there was lots to do - sand toys, three kayaks, a lily pad to play on, a safe sandy beach and other places already mentioned in other reviews. There is an excellent disc golf course that my son enjoyed. The kitchen is well equipped with some basic spices. The owners are outstanding and unobtrusively checked in to see how we were doing. I left some items there and they went beyond "the call of duty" to make sure I got them back.

Just what we were looking for
Clean, updated and roomy. This place was very well stocked. Loved the shaded trees and the sandy beach. The park adjacent to the property was a hit with kids aged 2-8. This property does not have the Up North feel but we knew that going in. We traded that for everything else and it delivered. Wonderful sand toys and kayaks available to use. We loved it!!! We may be back. 😋

Girls' Weekend
Two college friends and our three girls ages 13-19 from Thursday to Sunday. The girls shared the bunk room and each mom had her own room. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. Everything was clean and well cared for. We had a small issue with the dishwasher and someone was there very quickly to make sure it worked for us. Everything was as expected. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others. It was too cold to swim, but the house right on the lake would be absolutely perfect for a summer getaway too.
