Here are a few kind words from our past guests:

"Great stay located about an hour north of the cities. Plenty of room for all our guests, and the beach for the kids was a plus. Easy lake access for those with boats and good fishing. Would recommend and stay again for any type of gathering!" - Justin

"Fantastic location and amenities!!! Our large family stayed to celebrate a 70th birthday. The ample space fit us wonderfully. The added creature comforts of AC, Wi-Fi, two ensuite main floor bedrooms, and separate upstairs rooms provided some privacy as well. We will be back!" - Laura

"Great location for a large family gathering. While we went in the winter, we got the full winter wonderland experience with tubing and playing on the frozen lake. They have a wonderful deck with a grill that we did utilize. We missed out on the opportunity to use the inviting firepit but opted for the cozy fireplace inside. The house comes with everything you need to make yourself at home, and stores and groceries are less than a 10-minute drive. Definitely worth braving the cold for these Floridians." - Marjorie

We enjoyed all the space in the house & yard. There was lots of privacy. We were only disappointed that the water was green so we were not able to play in the lake.

Family gathering

We had a family gathering with 7 adults and 4 children. We enjoyed the space, both insider and outside, and the lake was shallow so perfect for the kids. The maple table was beautiful and large enough for everyone to eat together.

The checkin process was good. The door was unlocked. The cabin was hot, but once we figured out the air conditioning it was very pleasant. The bedrooms were very comfortable. The kitchen was very user friendly. Lots of bathrooms which is a plus. The lake was pretty green! We braved it and went swimming anyway. Lots of fun memories were made!!

Great stay

The house is spotless and super easy to navigate. The communication is excellent, and I always get a quick response to my questions. They’re really accommodating, too, with early check-in and late checkout options. There’s even enough parking space for my boat, and I can even charge it there. If you’re looking for a cozy mini getaway, I highly recommend this place!

Kid friendly lake

Great sleeping arrangements. The 2 bunk bed rooms were perfect to separate the boys and girls. The lake was shallow so we didn’t have to worry much about the children and life jackets. Went 100 feet out from shore and water was only 4 feet deep.

Very pleasant stay

We went with a couple of family friends and all had kids between 5-10 years old. Has a nice big yard with plenty of room for the kids to play games and run around. Beds were comfortable and clean. It was really nice how the owner provided firewood. We brought our fishing boat that we were able to tie to the dock and had some great catches! And best of all, it was only an hour north of us making it an easy drive for the kids :) we would come back for sure.

Family Vacation

We booked this property for a family vacation, it was a good layout where everyone felt comfortable and had their own space. There was good notes, communication and check-in process was very easy. The only negative on this property was that it could seriously use some TLC (tender loving care). There were weeds grown up on the stairs, things were damaged from previous tenants and could use a seriously deep clean.

family time

It was a wonderful place for my siblings and family for our annual gathering. The place allowed us to spread out, have our own rooms and the grounds are spacious as well for outdoor games and fires. Overall the interior is nice but if. you look closer (kitchen cupboards, closets) they are in disarray. The pontoon was nice to have to get on the lake, but it is very slow and pretty beaten up.

Beautiful Property

Our stay was very nice, the property manager was very communicative and even contacted us after check in to make sure we were enjoying our stay. The property does need a little bit of work, a couple boards on the deck are a little treacherous and my dad actually cleaned off the air conditioner on the outside to ensure the AC was optimal. Something to note is the two bedrooms upstairs there is no AC or heating. We weren't expecting that and for July it got a bit warm up there. The trick is to open windows in the back and put the fans in the front windows. Overall my family had a great time! Thank you.

Our Stay

We grew up going Up North to our family cabin with a beach front. The cabin was sold a number of years ago because of parental age/health issues. We rented this cabin for our family (kids/grandkids) as well as my parents. We chose this cabin for the size, the beach front, the pontoon, and the fire pit. The pictures of the house were not current as it was not as crisp and clean as shown (many splinters) and we spent time cleaning the pontoon and beach area; however, the kitchen and living room were wonderful for our family. I would suggest organizing the closets and cupboards but that is just my opinion as I find that to be an important part of all of our VRBO stay.

Lovely house for a family

Overall, we liked the house. We expressed some initial concerns to the owner about the cleanliness; but he mentioned that he would have a talk with the cleaners. It took us a bit to figure out how to operate the AC unit, as well, so the first night in the place was extremely warm and difficult to sleep. Once we got the air going, we were very happy! Some instructions on how to operate the AC remote would be great!! At any rate - lots of space for families to stay, kitchen is well appointed with everything you need to cook, superior location right on the water. Very quiet. We will definitely consider this house again for our annual summer trip.

Beautiful view.

The photos make the home look much more appealing than the outside actually is. The inside wasn't as large a the photos make it look. We slid the couch forward so we could all sit at the table because it was so close to the bar stools. A list of the included items would have been nice. Like bring your own paper towels. Not much counter space for anything. Beds and couch were comfortable. No bathroom upstairs. Steep to get into the house. Weird smell when we went in but it cleared up. Overall 4+ stars.

Fun Family Weekend

Our family spent the weekend here fishing and just hanging out. The kids had a great time in the bunk rooms and the beach was perfect for playing in the water. Our dogs were thrilled with the lake too! Plenty of places to sleep, but not a lot of privacy for adult couples. My husband and I shared a room with his brother, awkward! I wonder if the previous guests or the cleaners had trouble before we arrived as the door was left unlocked. We were a little disappointed with the floors, they were not cleaned up from the previous guests (sand & dirt on hard surface floors) and the organization in the kitchen took some time to get used to. We would suggest a cabinet/pantry area for food storage when we are there as everything we brought had to be kept in the counter or small table in the hall. If you need a great outdoor space for family/friend gatherings, this place is perfect! Kids and dogs loved the yard. We had a fire in the pit, played lots of catch and football in the yard, fished, swam, etc. Great opportunity to have fun!

Place didn't match VRBO listing

We were looking forward to a getaway with three generations of family. When we got to the house, we were shocked at the cabin and beach/dock. We stayed at the cabin during the warmest week of the summer, which should not have been a problem. The air conditioning, however, was not large enough to cool the cabin. There were NO vents to push cool air upstairs. Additionally, there were no window coverings to keep the sun from heating the cabin. There are many stairs in the house and leading to the house. The stairs leading into the cabin are steep and without a railing. The dock seems to be pieced together by various wooden and metal pieces. It is uneven and was problematic for a member of my group with MS. This person tripped and fell more than once. Other issues we had with the cabin: owner was non-responsive to questions, and cabin was NOT clean upon our arrival.

Wish we would have been told that the lake was totally green due to a fertilizer spill earlier, so there was no fishing unless you made the trip down snake river to cross lake, bathing water was a lite brown so we had to buy drinking water for cooking and drinking to be sure it was safe for young toddler , , every thing else was nice
