Great Lake House
Lots of room for our large extended family vacation!! Beautiful view! Very impressed with how clean and clear the lake was. The sandy beach and shallow swim area were great for the little kids. There was a nice dock for the pontoon and fishing boat we brought. We even caught a few nice fish. The sauna was a nice bonus too. Overall was clean and the owner was prompt in answering any questions I had. Only drawback was the lack of air-conditioning...it was very warm in the upstairs bedrooms for sleeping, but we will definitely book again!!

It was ok.
House was cute. A summer stay would be fun with the lake. We stayed in January. The listing was a little misleading. It implied there was a full bed in basement, which ended up being an air mattress. The listing mentioned laundry but we only found a washer, never actually tested if it worked because no dryer. There were dents in the walls from the doors not having door stops. Also was shocked to find out the back door did not lock and there was only half the door handle present. When I text the owner they already knew about it, and said one was on order but I feel this is something they should have told us. We had my husband, brother- in- law, and father-in-law with us, so I didn’t feel too uneasy. However, if it was just me and my kids, I’m not sure I could have stayed knowing anyone could just walk in. I would have rated this higher if it wasn’t for the half missing door handle with the door the didn’t lock.

Wonderful place to stay
Cottage was great. Loved the vase of flowers that were waiting for us in the counter. Nice touch. Plenty of room for all 9 of us. Sand toys, for the kids, were even included. Loved all the beautiful flowers around the property. Had great bonfires. It was very peaceful there. Lake wasn’t crowded at all. Plenty of room (in and outside of cottage). Grandkids had a blast playing in the sand, swimming, and running around playing tag and hide-and-go-seek.

Nicest VRBO I’ve ever stayed at
The hosts thought of everything that a renter would need to have a relaxing time. From the moment we walked through the door until we sadly had to pack up and go home it was very enjoyable. It’s a gorgeous setting with beautiful gardens and a nice big grassy yard. The beach I was clean and the water is so clear and clean as well. There was plenty of room for 6 adults and one toddler…plus our golden retriever who was in heaven playing all day in the water. There is a paddle boat available and we also brought our kayaks and took a moonlight paddle during a gorgeous bright full moon. The hosts were quick to respond to questions. I really can’t say enough good things about this place…we loved it and love ok forward to going back again.

Lake House
Renting unseen property is always a risk. We really lucked out with this property. It was so nice. Loved the beach for my grandkids and family, we could watch the kids playing from beach, deck or swings it was great. Kids loved playing in the sand . The adults loved the relaxing atmosphere. We just had a great time, made lots of great memories.

Quiet and relaxing summer stay
Our family enjoyed 5 evenings at the lake house. The beach the kitchen and the Wi-Fi were al great and as advertised, and the location is private with a decent-sized yard for games and fun. We would love to return again to make more memories.

Great family fun
This property is great for adults and children. The kids loved the water and the sand. The paddle boat was a fun bonus as well. The water is shallow enough for the little ones too. The house was the most well stocked house we have rented! We were there for the 4th of July and didn't even have to leave to see fireworks!! Would definitely recommend this property,

Great house!
This house was perfect for us. Our group consisted of 6 adults and 4 children ranging in age from 1 - 6 years old. The home had plenty of room to accommodate all of us and it was very clean. Upstairs had a loft that our kids were able to sleep in; it had a TV with plenty of streaming services to use, which was great for bedtime. The beach area was our favorite part. The proximity to the house was ideal with our small kids, the water was clean, and it was relatively private. Our kids were also able to do some fishing off the dock, which they loved! We all agreed we would 100% stay here again!

Weekend Getaway
Was a beautiful weekend up there. Weather turned out amazing. House was perfect with a couple extra sleeping options, open concept, and outdoor space to hang out along with fire pit. We all agreed we would come back again. But only having 1 toilet you could go #2 in, as well as both were very sketchy when it came to flushing, were the only down falls. The light in main bathroom needs updated or fixed as it turned on but was very dim, so night time bathroom breaks were only lit by a night light it seemed, so no late showers. Host was amazing, replied quickly with lots of suggestions for places to go!

We had 3 40-something guys in the cabin for a fishing weekend. Aaron and Kylee were really responsive. Clean cabin, right on the water, nice and toasty at night with the below zero temps. Will stay again!

Perfect getaway
House was perfect for what we needed. Lots of space for the kids to play inside and outside. The only thing I would have liked to see that they did not have was an outside area to eat and for the grill to be cleaned. They had everything that we needed available and the host was excellent. We will definitely stay here again.

Annual Family Vacation
We stayed at this home for 3 nights and 4 days in September 2021. There were 12 of us ages 6-69 and 4 dogs. Everyone enjoyed themselves and the kids spent a day in the water. The use of the paddle boat was a huge hit wait my 6 grandkids. We had plenty of room for all both outside snd inside the home. We really enjoyed ourselves.

Absolutely beautiful!
When you pull up it looks like a fairy tale cottage with all of the beautiful flowers. Views of lake are amazing from everywhere you sit. Front porch view is lake across the street. Firepit view is lake beyond the flowers. Then there is back of house with balcony deck, lower porch swing and the view just relaxing on the dock. The lake is clear, quiet and clean. Owners were quick to answer any questions . Highly recommend.

Wonderful laid back lake house
We had a great relaxing time as a family in this lake house. The mini beach and paddle boat were a great hit for our son and our dogs. We enjoyed the sauna and the games they provided in the property. They don't have air-conditioning but it was manageable. It gets cooler at night til early morning. We brought a fan for our dogs because they get hot easily. We enjoyed ice cream and broasted chicken over at Ebaugh's Whistle Stop. Four Leaf Brewing was also a short drive away. Aaron responded quickly to all my queries. I highly recommend this property!
