The property was just as described. The hosts have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and relaxing. It's also fun to stay at an authentic trailer rather than just another cabin. I can't wait to get back there.

The pictures don’t do this GEM justice! The yard is a great size and flowers are everywhere which gives you a happy feeling pulling up. The inside was very clean, comfy and we had great instructions on everything. We will be back soon!

Charming and Quiet

A hidden gem for those who are looking for a quiet little spot to decompress. We enjoyed all the amenities and loved having a nice fire at night. Friendly neighborhood and the lake was very refreshing. Will stay again when in the area.

Teal charm

We had a nice time with both friends and family. The location was easy to find and the house was well maintained, had all the things we needed and the theme was so fun! It was gray and a little chilly for Aug so we didn’t swim, but it would have been fun! A great spot after our concert adventure.

Not modern, but relax and enjoy it

A lovely weekend at this fun, retro 😉 little trailer. Not fancy, but cute and cozy. We loved the fire pit and the outdoor shower too. The lake is maybe more for kayaking than swimming, but, the little beach down the road is certainly pleasant for a dip after one of the lakes region hikes.

Practically perfect

It was exactly what I we needed. A place by the water with full amenities at a good price. The only thing I wish I had known when I made the booking was the hot water situation which was disclosed with the check in instructions, but we managed just fine by following the instructions to turn off the hot water while lathering. Thats why the place gets 4 stars otherwise it was just lovely. The use of the kayaks was very much appreciated.

Overall the stay was good. Not enough air conditioning for the whole trailer. Updates need to be done. Great access to lake for swimming and kayaking.

Channel your inner I Love Lucy!

Lovely little retro trailer that was comfortable and had everything we needed for a quiet weekend getaway. The trailer is set on its own piece of land in a pretty and eclectic neighborhood. You have a view of the water from the front deck and the neighbors wave when they walk by. Glamping at its best! Comfy beds, coffee pot, microwave, fridge, stove, and everything in between. We hope to stay again! Thank you :-)

Perfect Long Weekend Getaway

My girls (age 17 & 11) and my little dog stayed for 3 nights. I wish I had booked a couple more. The place is exactly as pictured. I booked the back camper for my oldest, she loved having her own space. Love that it has slider door between each of the room to adjust for privacy. The trailer had the perfect amount of room for my other daughter and I to each have our own space. The kitchen had everything I needed to make a few meals. We didn't get a chance to use the kayaks but I'm sure we'll be back to use them in the fall.

My husband and I spent three nights with our Frenchie in the cutest 50’s style mobile home! It has a nice living room and kitchen area. There are two bedrooms very comfy to sleep. There’s an inside bath but the out door shower was amazing! We spent a lot of time on the deck area cooking on the bbq and looking at the stars at night! My husband fished on the dock that you can walk to and we all spent time on the separate private beach area swimming There’s a fire pit at the back of the home where you can toast marshmallows. All of the surrounding neighbors were so very nice as well! We highly recommend a lovely stay in this place and thank the wonderful ladies for allowing us to do so!

We absolutely loved our stay, the weather was perfect and the the place was comfortable, clean, and the remodeled rooms looked great! The nearby beaches were clean and relaxing with a Great Lake to swim in for the kids. Would absolutely come back and hopefully for a longer stay.

About the host

We are two friends that bought this gem and restored it in 2020. We had a lot of fun doing it and love the results. We really find this to be a fun place to relax and recreate. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

The vintage appeal of this mobile home drew us in. The kitchen is fairly original and we tried to keep the feel of 1950s camper life glamorized by the stars in the late 50s. The community and the pond/lakeside location are wonderful.
