We also want to disclose that we have Ring cameras on the property, we did not want to resort to this but we have been experiencing costly damage to our property and had no choice but to install cameras on the outside of the property. We have two in the front for people and guests who enter onto the property and we have one on our pontoon boat in the back. We respect our renters privacy and these are only to be used for security only and to monitor the pontoon boat. Thanks for understanding.

Total relaxation!
This is our 4th time staying at Lakeside Escape...always very satisfied with the cleanliness and upkeep that is provided! We enjoy everything: hot tub, foosball table, spaciousness, fishing dock and depending on the weather the kayaks and paddleboat! Our 4 year old grandson was easily occupied with the assortment of toys and stuffed animals. Can't wait to return for our 5th stay!!

Family Fun
We booked this house to celebrate Grandpas 70th Birthday. It was great fun as all four children/spouses and 6 grandchildren made it to celebrate. Great sleeping arrangements, spacious living areas and a beautiful lake made it so enjoyable that we seldom left the place. The shallow water out back with a sandy bottom was perfect for our young grandkids! We would definitely return.

Waterfront Rental
This rental was beautiful, all the decor was done very nicely. Plenty of space for our family of 16, never felt like we were on top of each other. They have plenty of everything in this rental, very well stocked. Loved the fact that we had 3 refrigerators to use. The only down fall I would say is you can hear the traffic from the road pretty much all day and night long. Otherwise would recommend this rental to anyone!!

Extended Family Trip
Property is as advertised in listing and photos. Large enough for multiple families to enjoy. Loved having the kayaks and canoe available to use in addition to other amenities. Lots of board games and some toys to keep the kids busy even on a rainy day. The property is near a well traveled road and road noise a present both inside and outside the house. The lake bottom is sand near the shoreline but it is a weedy bottom off the end of the dock. Owner quickly responded when we had an issue with the grill. Overall, the owners have done a very nice job trying to provide variety of amenities to meet anyone’s needs!
