Great weekend at the lake!

Our group loved our stay! The property had everything we needed and the host was very responsive. The property was very clean. The kitchen was well equipped and we enjoyed using the grill and having dinner with a beautiful view of the lake. Sitting around the fire after dinner was a lot of fun. The outside area is beautiful. We would recommend this property!

Lovely stay at Mousam Lake

We had a great stay at the Lakehouse. The property was exactly as described. Hosts were very easy to communicate with and very responsive. The property was very clean and well cared for. Gorgeous lake views from the house. We made good use of the fire pit at night. We rented a pontoon boat for the week and had an amazing time swimming and fishing. We were a family of 5 and it fit us perfectly.

Long weekend getaway

This property was well maintained, clean and plenty spacious. They also have a really nice entertainment area that is lakeside. (Unfortunately we weren’t able to use it as we stayed in the dead of winter) we did however enjoy the lake as we did some ice fishing with the kids. Owner was responsive and easy to work with. Thanks for a great weekend

Ice Fishing in Shapleigh

Spent the week in this lovely house by the lake. The weather didn't always cooperate, but when we were on the ice, the fishing was great. The house is lovely and a nice size for 6 people. Lovely little neighborhood with very little vehicle traffic in the winter. Owner is super responsive. This was our third visit to this camp for ice fishing, and all three visits were comfortable and fun!

Another great week at the lake

Second time here and it was every bit as good as the first. This place has everything you need both inside and outside. The firepit is great- lots of chairs for everyone to gather round and have those evening chats.
