Clean, cozy , warm and beautiful. The lake views were beautiful. The owners were very nice. They went above and beyond. Even brought us toys for our 2 year old to play with. The entire trip was above and beyond what we expected. I caught a ton of purch , blue gill , pickerel and a few small mouth bass. The house is fully equipped with everything you need and then some! Can’t wait to return! Thank you for your hospitality!

Although the host was right next door we did feel we had our privacy. The cabin had many personal family photos which made us feel a little like we were invading their space. So as constructive criticism perhaps a little less personal items would make future renters feel more at home. All in all the hiking was fun and the property provided a restful and relaxing time. The hosts were very helpful and accommodating.

Rustic getaway with all the modern amenities!

This was our third time here, and as usual it did not disappoint!! Lots of sitting areas inside and out, and one of the best appointed kitchens we can remember ever having! Short walk to the water which we greatly appreciated! The fishing was good for May, too!! Tami and Kevin are delightful hosts. Ask Tami about her “Magic Lotion” which she makes herself. Still using it ! It works on achy joints! Looking forward to visit #4!!

Nice overnight on the lake

Enjoyed my brief stay on the lake. The house has everything you need inside and out. I really enjoyed fishing from a kayak in the private lake early in the morning before I checked out. The owners, Kevin & Tami plus the neighbors couldn't have been nicer. It certainly felt secluded, but you are only 20 minutes from downtown Montrose. Would definitely stay here again.

Quite, cozy stay

We had a wonderful time at the quiet lake house retreat. Kevin and Tami were awesome host. They messaged detailed instructions on how to get to the place and it was pitch black out but easy to find. We had no real plans only to relax but found brochures that were left for us and went to a great shooting range not to far and extended our stay to hit a awesome hiking trail that we found on another brochure. Definitely recommend. We will be back this summer since the lake behind the house was frozen but looks like a lot of fun. Thanks again to Kevin and Tami

Amazing getaway!

The photos of this place do not do it justice! Really adorable little house on an absolutely beautiful lake. The hosts were very nice and very communicative without being oppressive. We made a mistake in our booking and had two extra people and they were very understanding and nice. Fully stocked kitchen and grill, boats and paddleboards for use, and great swimming - made for an amazing trip. Would love to go back!

Wonderfully relaxing

We arrived and Kevin came and welcomed us and told us what we needed to know and recommended some things to visit in the area. The house was surprisingly spacious with high ceilings…a definite plus with a husband who is 6’5”. Since it was a rainy weekend, the sun room was much appreciated as well as the covered pavilion. I enjoyed the dock as much as the weather would allow. We enjoyed meeting Tami and their cute little grandchildren later in the day! Overall a very relaxing and much needed get away. We will definitely return when we can!

Beautiful gem

Perfectly situated on the lake with plenty to do. Fishing, canoeing etc. Took a rowboat out one morning with my grandson and the scenery was amazing. Lots of fish to catch! The house was beautiful, clean, and had a fully equipped kitchen for cooking meals. Lots of games & toys for our grandson to enjoy. The beautiful views from the dining area bay window and the sunroom were breathtaking in the mornings when we had coffee and breakfast. The hosts Kevin and Tami were very kind and welcoming. This house is a true gem!

Paradise!

June 17-24. Thank you Kevin and Tammi for sharing your beautiful home and lakefront property with my boys and I. The entire process from start to finish was excellent. For me, it was paradise. The constant breeze of fresh mountain air. The rippling water throughout the day. The birds chirping. The hammock! My sons really enjoyed the fishing and the use of your boats, thank you. We all enjoyed our encounters in the afternoon with you both. We had great weather too. While Hallstead and Montrose are short drives, I felt no need to leave. We did enjoy the quick drive to Salt Springs though. Finally, the kitchen. What a great user friendly kitchen. It had everything we needed. So, thank you so much for our comfortable, relaxing and fun-filled stay. We hope to return someday.
