Fabulous place! Our family enjoyed fishing in the lake and a lot of wildlife activities in the area. The house was great- very clean and very comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed!
Our family had an amazing time. The property was beautiful and the lodge was clean. Everything we needed was there and the owner was incredible to work with (responsive and accommodating). We caught a lot of nice fish and enjoyed every aspect of our stay. Definitely would love to stay again!!!
Rented the house for a 4 day getaway for friends, house was super clean and very nicely furnished with everyday needs! Great location in relationship to the dock and casino! Very quiet and peaceful! Highly recommended!
EVERYTHING, I mean EVERYTHING was perfect. Jim ensured all was well and was available if we needed anything. The property was immaculate inside and out. Easy parking for two boats, 3 minutes to the ramp. A perfect place to return to after a long day on the water. We will be back!
This place was just what we wanted. Remote but with easy access, land to explore, games to play, rocking chairs for reading, a roomy and accommodating kitchen, and even a television to aid in a nap.
We aren’t sportsmen but it didn’t matter. The rustic warmth of the house was enough to make us feel like we just returned from a successful hunt. We played bird games, drank cocoa (prepared on the large stove), ate ice cream, and rallied together with family and friends to bring in the holiday season.
“A post Thanksgiving birthday getaway at the camp” could be a new family tradition as the host was so accommodating and extremely prompt on communication. We wanted for nothing and were able to relax…and rock (on the porch)…in a chair.
Okay for any outdoorsy family that needs a getaway.
Overall it was okay. We made the best out of the giving situation. Upon arrival it was noticed right away that the cleanliness was lacking. Think dust layer on all surfaces, bits and bugs on floor, inside icebox sleeves had some dried up food/liquid on them. Something was left in disposal that made the house smell terrible when running the water. We cleaned enough to continue the stay. Owner refunded our cleaning fee only to get blamed for leaving it dirty. I didnt know we were expected to clean before leaving. Living room fan didnt work and most closet doors were broke. Other then that it was good and I do suspect that they will rectify the issues as they seemed to appreciate the feedback. I will end the review by saying if your looking for some good pond fishing, try it out.
The location was great and we loved the house. We had a nice, chill bachelor weekend for my brother. Lots of space, plenty of beds, and lots of places to relax and hang out.
Great cabin very clean, comfortable beds, kitchen had everything necessary for cooking and we loved the outside area. Porches all around, comfortable rockers and the pond so well kept easy to fish or just sit on the deck and watch the turtles.
Jim answered all questions immediately and was very accommodating!! Thanks for a great weekend to visit with family. Also so appreciate that our two dogs were welcome!
This is a nice lodge. We enjoyed that it was out in the country and quiet. The kids loved fishing in the pond- even if we only caught one fish.
The house is a bit dark inside due to the porch covers- doesn’t let a lot of light in- and the lights in the house are a bit dim.
One bedroom has sliding barn doors which don’t quite cover the entire door opening which was a little issue for noise in the morning if someone was still sleeping in that room.
There are only 4 chairs for the dining room table but there are bar stools. We made due with those when we wanted to play games all together.
The beds are comfy.
The porch is wonderful to sit out on in the morning to overlook the lake or have a drink in the evening in the screened in area.
It’s very peaceful out there and we had a great time together as a family. THANK YOU!
Outdoorsman or not, Little Lake Lodge will provide a peaceful escape from your everyday. With multiple porches to choose from depending on the season or time of day, a well equipped kitchen and an overall cozy feel to the place, you’ll enjoy your stay, no matter your reason for being there.
Clean, well thought through, and ready for a fun time ... don’t hesitate to spend a few nights here!
