This was checked the majority of the boxes we were looking for. Great sunset, by the water, cozy space, plenty of things to do with the family and awesome space for our dog. Communication was fast and check in was easy.
Beautiful Lil Home with Big Lake House Vibes. Me and the wife needed a little getaway and this home was the ticket. Everything we needed was there and so much more. Great Host, Great Communication, and Great Atmosphere. Definitely will be back..Thanks again Em
My family and i had had an amazing time at this getaway. Beautiful place with amazing views. The place was very clean and everything they said. We had an issue with the gas grill late on Saturday night and maintenance came out and determined the grill was defective. They ran out and got us another grill so we could grill our Saturday night dinner. Looking forward to booking this place again for new and my family.
We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The host went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we could possibly need. From a fully stocked kitchen and extra towels to thoughtful little touches throughout the home, it truly felt like she had anticipated every detail to make our stay comfortable and stress-free.The lakefront property itself was stunning. Waking up to the peaceful water views and spending evenings enjoying the beautiful scenery made our trip so special. The setting was quiet, relaxing, and absolutely perfect for a getaway.

Very nice place to stay
It was really nice, very clean, if you like to fish that’s the place to have would go there again
The house was great, everything was accessible and easy to find. The only complaint is we were told there would be a Brita filter in the fridge for water, but there wasn’t one.
Great property and amenities it’s a great place to spend a getaway weekend

Private and serene
Cozy and clean house with essentials provided and nice game room. Our favorite part was the outdoor area, which felt very private and serene with lake access right in the back yard! The hut filled with outdoor activity equipment was so nice to have.

wonderful place to be to disconnect and relax.
clean and neat upon arrival - big plus for me. View is absolutely beautiful. Perfect for unplugging and downloading from everything busy. Plenty of "toys" to enjoy the water right in front of me. Board games and a game room there for those days that are enjoyed inside. Good place to be.

Great place for a girls trip!
The Lake Haus was the perfect place to host our girls weekend! The view from the backyard was gorgeous and we had endless room for yard games! The adventure shed was also a hit in our group. I was also at peace knowing that if it rained, we would have endless entertainment in the game room. Emily also provided great communication throughout the booking process and during our stay. Overall, a great place for a weekend getaway!

pleasant stay by the water
The property is on a nice secluded road at the end of a peninsula. Wonderful location.
We really loved our stay. The game room was great.A couple things need attention: Window sills inside are pretty dirty.3 out of the 4 light bulbs are burned out in the main bathroom. We couldn't find any.Table in porch room needs the screws tightened.We hope to stay there again next year. It was just wonderful. Thank you so much.!!
