Perfect place for a girls trip. The house was very clean. The kitchen was meticulous and well stocked with things you didn't even think you'd need on a trip. The deck provided a beautiful view of the lake. Plenty of seating outside, great for relaxing. Peaceful and quiet the entire trip. Enjoyed watching movies on Netflix. Close to town for shopping and restaurants. Some great memories made!

Got everything for everyone
This is a beautiful house with all amenities for a nice quiet relaxing vacation. 4 bedrooms and 2 washrooms were enough for our family. Updated kitchen has everything to prepare a family meal and all cabinets are labeled, a very well stocked. Large deck with bbq can accommodate large gatherings. Nice quiet lake with plenty of kayaks, canoe and paddle boat will keep everyone enjoying the water at the same time, with lifejackets. Bicycles are in garage. Front yard has swings, tire swing and fire pit with plenty of fire wood.

Second visit - as good as the first!
We had a great time at The Hyde Away! Enjoyed the kayaks, making smores around a campfire, having a beautiful deck for reading, relaxing, and grilling our meals. Spacious and comfortable for our group of 5. The grandkids are already making plans for next year!

Peace and quiet
The Hyde Away was just as it was advertised. When we arrived, the place was clean and well maintained. We were surprised at how organized the kitchen was. There were a range of spices and other little additions that made it feel like home. Everyone enjoyed the lake, whether it was swimming or taking one of the boats out. The fire pit was well made and ready to use. A few of us went on a quick bikeride. sitting out on the back deck was a great place to read while still able to keep an eye on the children by the lake. We left with thoughts of renting again as it was so prefect!

Nature Paradise!
We stayed throughout the week and my children discovered how to kayak (2 children ones) and we would go kayaking early in the morning to watch the cedar waxwings hunt off the water, saw green and great blue herons and soaked in all the wondrous nature. We would go out at dusk and see lots of activity with deer, and other big birds along with watching all the fish jump for food. My 2 year-old loved to play in the beach area and the water was a perfect temperature even when it got cooler outside because it's only 14 feet at the deepest. Spent many days just floating off the pontoon dock. Just a natural paradise. So very relaxing and EXACTLY what we wanted in a vacation spot. Lots of shade on the back porch and we'd play games at night. So lovely!

Everything we wanted!
This cozy cabin had everything our two families needed for a nice lake vacation. We were impressed by the number of kayaks/boats available for our use and all the amenities available. We stayed during the week and it felt like we had the lake to ourselves. The owners were very responsive when contacted. Wish we stayed longer!

Great place to stay!
We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary with our family. We all had a great time despite a day and a half of rain. The kids had so much fun fishing off the dock, swimming and kayaking. It's like we had our own private lake! Thanks for sharing your vacation home!

Complete Lake Cabin Experience
A cozy cabin with everything you could want to enjoy the quiet (no wake) lake. We had a wonderful time out on the lake with the canoe, rowboat, paddle boat, kayaks for all, as well as biking around the quiet neighborhood. For a small lake lined by vacation homes, there was little other activity on the lake- it felt like we had our own private lake. Beach is sandy and good for wading and swimming. Bring googles so you can see the fish swimming along with you. Everything was clearly labeled and easy to find what you need. Short drive into town if you forgot anything. It was very peaceful and renewing!

Great place with lots to do!
I took a group of 8 to this quiet getaway and found it to be exactly as we hoped. There was plenty of room for everyone, two separate living room areas and a bedroom with a TV. The kitchen had everything we needed too! Scenery was great and although the weather didn't allow lake access, we were able to enjoy the view and relax on the deck. It's a great place for a relaxing walk or to sit around a fire when the sun goes down. Judy the host was very nice and accommodating - making recommendations for grocery stores and pizza delivery - and she was a pleasure to work with. I would definitely recommend staying here. I will for sure.

Large, Cozy, Amenities, Beautiful View
We stayed at the home over Christmas and enjoyed it so much. The home comes equipped with everything that you need. Plenty of towels, extra blankets, pots, pans, toilet paper, paper towel, garbage bags, utensils, etc. We brought our own wood and starters for the fireplace. It provided hours of warmth and ambiance. The view is amazing and it was fun to see the people out skating and ice fishing on the Northside of the lake. The location is great for shopping and restaurants. Shasta Daisy in town is a cute little boutique and Grimm's has the best burgers. The beds are comfortable and place was sparkling clean. Water quality is excellent in both the taste and the amount of hot water/pressure for 8 of us to shower. We had epic game nights on the large kitchen table and the open concept to the living area made everyone feel together. The extra living room downstairs was great for those needing some quiet time for reading or school work. The internet speed was excellent, TV was easy to use, and the extra speakers made the home so special as the Christmas music played through out. Plenty of space for everyone! Parking was a breeze for 4 vechicles. We will be back!
