This was a great place for my wife and I, and the dog, to stay while we were part of a very large family group that was staying down the road at The Mansion on the Lake. Very comfortable for all of us. Nice peaceful place away from that family. You know… for me. The family group was my wife’s.Highly recommend

Checks all the boxes

This home was exactly what we needed! We love the farmhouse decor and the big open space. Nice and quiet location. The vegetable garden is an excellent touch that added a little something to our dinners.

Back to basics family time.

Great place to stay for family, party of 6 and under. Open floor plan with cozy nook and giant multipurpose dining table worked well for us. Great spot to unwind and sleep and refresh. Amenities just what we needed and responsive host. All helped make a successful wedding weekend!

Lovely Oasis

We had a fantastic time relaxing at this retreat! We needed peace and quiet and this was perfect for us and our dogs. The amenities were great, we had everything we needed to fully enjoy our time. We loved sitting by the gas fireplace as well as the outdoor firepit. All in all, it was perfect for us, only wish it was longer!

Sisters Weekend

There were 3 sisters and 3 of our college age daughters staying for a "Girls' Weekend". We loved the openness of the down stairs. No matter where you were you could be part of the conversation. We also loved the big table. It allowed us to eat together and have plenty of space to play games. Very close to Manitowoc where we did some shopping and spent time walking on Mariner's Trail. Very relaxing!

Serenity Now!

If peacefulness was truly attainable, it might be here. We purposely rented away from the track, as prior trips have always left us completely drained, even as we started another day. With fields on 3 sides and a Lake on the other, quiet and relaxation was easy to find. The house is fantastic, lots of space to spread out and enjoy a book (the entire living room is walled with them like a library!), play a record (they have quite a nice collection), or just watching the sun set over the landscape. It's cool enough at night to turn the fire place on and in no time I'm ready to sleep. We found both bedrooms really comfortable, with plenty of storage space and a well appointed bathroom attached to the master. The down stairs bathroom has the coolest floral wallpaper! There are plenty of resources in the kitchen to aid in meal prep there or on the grill. All in all a wonderful place to stay, and I hope to be able to return again in the future!
