Weekend at the lake
Great location, less than 5 minute drive to lake. Loft area set up perfectly for little ones/ toys, tv, bean bag chairs. Property was clean upon arrival with a super easy check in process.

18th birthday
We recently stayed for my sons 18th birthday. We needed a little getaway and this house was perfect! Great amenities in the game room, fully stocked kitchen,(could use some new pans, but I still give it 5 stars),wood burning fire place (Wood-stove) and plenty of sleeping spaces. The beds were very comfortable and we loved that the kids had the first floor to themselves. Great house- we would definitely book again!

Relaxing
We had a great stay at this location. Everything was as advertised also plenty of amenities. Neighborhood was very quiet especially during the week. Awesome location and very relaxing. I would have given 5 stars but the cleaning was sub par and needs to be improved but other than that the place is awesome!

Needs to be cleaned
Pros: The location and amenities were exactly what we were looking for. The firepit and chairs were nice. They supplied the wood which was great. The pool table and dart board were in good condition. They fixed the hot tub before we arrived and it was enjoyable. Lots of stuff to do in the house and lots to do in the area. The kitchen was well stocked with spices, basic supplies, and coffee. There were a few nice touches like bins with towels, soap and shampoo in each room. Cons: Though a pretty hefty cleaning fee was charged, the house needs to be cleaned! A lot of the silverware was dirty and had to be washed before using. There is mold on one of the bedroom doors in the basement. The beds are not comfortable. The pots and pans are need to be replaced. The pool sticks are not in good condition. There is a terrible smell in the bedrooms in the basement (mold?). Overall: I would not rent this house again unless mold was removed and house was cleaned.

Fun despite the rain!
We stayed here over the 4th of July and had a blast despite the very rainy weekend we had. The hot tub was awesome, especially because it was covered by the deck above. The game room was perfect - we had a lot of fun shooting pool and playing darts. The kitchen and dining room right next to the deck with a grill were great for big feasts with our friends. When the weather cleared, we had a fire in the firepit and were able to just hang out. Lots of parking. Plenty of room to escape inside the house. Solid AC. Lots of beds. Plus, the lake access! Would recommend.

Great Getaway
Had a great and relaxing getaway at this home with 5 adults and 4 kids. The game room and bar area kept us entertained for hours during the day. The owner had a bunch of board games to play. The outside fire pit was so relaxing and enjoyable at night. Any small issues that came up were handled quickly and reasonably by the owner and property management.

Getaway from NY
My friends and I who all are health professionals needed a breather from the craziness of New York and this place did that. Everyone felt comfortable and were able to just relax and enjoy the place.
