Beautiful large home they was perfect for our annual aunts/nieces/cousins weekend. The bunk room is one of our favorites because we can stay up chatting together. The hosts were so accommodating, especially with an upcoming snowstorm. They checked in on us to make sure we were okay and that we would be able to leave without concerns. They set up their plow service to come early to make sure we were able to leave. We love it here and will be back again next year.

Family vacation

This was a family vacation with all of our kids and 5 grandsons all under the age of 10. The house and property were wonderful. The kids enjoyed the swimming and the games in the house. We hope to stay again next summer.

Excellent location for a family vacation

Beautiful home located on a peaceful lake that was well suited for younger children. Amenities were vast especially the lily pad that spent a lot of time in the water. Children loved their own retreat with the bunkbeds and adults enjoyed their privacy with comfortable beds. Plenty of flat grass that was perfect for running around and a firepit for making smores.

Annual Family Vacation

We really enjoyed our stay. Very clean, well appointed vacation rental. Check in process was very smooth and communication with the host was adequate. Our family loved the spacious kitchen and great room area. Be aware that there are only 3 private bedrooms, with 2 additional bedroom areas in the open loft space, which wasn't ideal for our adult family. Overall, it is a lovely home.

Beautiful Property

We had a wonderful time. The location was perfect. Close to some fun restaurants and a nice grocery store. The beds were very comfortable and the room darkening shades were an added bonus. The kitchen and family living room offered a perfect place to have family gather. The kids loved the bunk room and having their own space to watch movies and hang out. Couldn’t have asked for a better spot.

Great house and very well equipped. We had a fabulous week. We rented a pontoon one of the days and the water was too high to get from Clearwater lake to Grass lake. Check water levels before you lock in a rental.

Amazing weekend

I was looking for a spot to rent for a long weekend for my family to gather and reconnect and have some lake fun. My 4 kids, spouses and 2 young grandchildren. The accommodation was just perfect. Close to the city and big enough to comfortably accommodate all of us. Our stay was made even better by the amazing additions that we found at the house! Lake floats, life jackets, tons of toys for little and grownups, and a kitchen that couldn’t have been better equipped. We all had just the best time and we hope to do it again next year.

Family Holiday

This large beautiful home made our 7 day stay with a family of 8 adults and 1 toddler very relaxing, allowing plenty of room to either spread out, or play together. The swimming area was nice, and the water toys/floats were fun to have; the amount of beach was quite minimal. The kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, glassware, flatware, and all manner of cooking equipment - all in near-new condition. Quiet lake.

Perfect Weekend

This was the perfect get away for 7 girl friends to celebrate 35 yrs of friendship. House had plenty of room for all of us with lots of choices for sleeping and just enough bathrooms. The kitchen was excellent for all 7 of us to take turns cooking. Fire pit and dock were great for lounging and lake had a good amount of activity - not too much or too little. Also loved the large washer dryer that got good use. Property manager was easily accessible before the weekend to help us plan and answer any questions. Would DEFINITELY book again!

One of the best!

Our family enjoyed a wonderful stay here last weekend! Some of the highlights: *Everything was so clean and in great shape *Kids bunk room upstairs was perfect for our 4 kiddos *Kids LOVED fishing off the dock- so many fish caught and released throughout the weekend *We had tried to rent a boat for the weekend, but couldn't make it under the bridge due to the high water. We were a little bummed, but we just tied the lilypad to the dock and the kids enjoyed that just as much! We had brought our own life jackets, but appreciated being able to use theirs too! * The basement was also a hit! Definitely a must stay again!

Outstanding Family Time at The Lake

This gorgeous new home was spacious and modern and had every possible convenience, including a fully equipped kitchen and washer/dryer. There were plenty of gathering areas for the whole family ( 5 adults and 4 children, ages 1-8), as well as private spaces for quiet time. Our kiddos were able to take naps easily without being disturbed by the rest of the family. The sandy beach was perfect for play and relaxation, while the lake was just the right depth for young children. We were impressed by all of the water toys that were provided, especially the lily pad. S'mores around the fire pit were a big hit and we loved playing in the huge backyard. It was a fabulous vacation week for our family!
