This place was above and beyond there were 8 adults plenty of room to spread out and the yard was great for dogs and late nights hanging by fire pit and jacuzzi highly recommended The local bars and restaurants were great Short ride into Johnstown
We had a family get together and we knew Caroga Lake is the place to be. I stumbled upon this great place which used to be a restaurant. The owner, being very quick with responses, friendly, professional and informative. We had no idea the firework show was right at this place. It was amazing.
If you stay here, your whole family will be comfortable and relaxed. Don't forget to go see Karl at the marina and rent a pontoon boat for the best swimming in an amazing Lake.
We had such an amazing time; we are now going back every year!
You'll be happy to stay here!!
The boat house is a great property for a large family group. One portion houses the bedrooms, while there is a great living space attached (Captain's Quarters). This was wonderful for letting the children sleep while the adults enjoyed the evenings. The downstairs tiki bar was also great - we grilled outside and brought all of the meal in to the bar... again, this allowed the children to sleep. The location is excellent, by beautiful West Caroga Lake. Also - the propane tank ran out and the host happily came to replace it for us. A very fun time.
