Easy check in, Clean, fully stocked with all conveniences of home.. Outdoor space has plenty of seating and spectacular views of the lake. We enjoyed the available kayaks, beach area and dock. Being pet friendly is icing on the cake! We will stay here again.

Nice place. It was very quiet mid week. I imagine it’s a more happening place on the weekends but the solitude was perfect. Excellent communication

Paul’s house in Hale was ideal for a week getaway. He has absolutely everything you could need and then some! The lake was wonderful for both boating and swimming. The house was comfortable and cozy. The fire pit and back deck were fantastic places to hang out with friends and family, grill, and look out over the water. It was a great trip and we will definitely be back!

We loved our stay at this cottage. The house and lake were beautiful, I loved the fact that they had high end smart appliances and tvs, and the beds were so comfy! Paul the host had the best communication, always checking in and giving us helpful pointers for our trip. The town of Hale was awesome, it had everything we needed and the local restaurants had delicious food. We had ice cream every night at the Victorian cafe, a lot of little gems in this town. I would say we'd definitely love to come back.

Great Vacation Spot for Family!!!

From Check-In to Check-Out, we really enjoyed the property. The host made contact with us on our drive up with last-minute code changes and a little helpful info on the house. They even put out a s'mores kit and sparklers for the kids. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of room for our family of 5 (ages 7 to 44). Fishing was great with the help of a local pontoon rental, though even off the dock, our oldest caught a really nice 3.5 lb bass. The lake was warm and weather was awesome. Home was clean and well-appointed with plenty of kitchen utensils and even coffee pods. The entire home was clean, clean, clean. 100% would stay here again. 10/10 for sure. What a great place to relax, unwind, and get away. Thank you, to our hosts, for making our short little trip one that our family will remember for years.
