We’ve been visiting Daydreamer for 6 years now and have never been disappointed, and this year was no different! Perfect house for 24 of us with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, perfect dock for the 4 boats we bring, and perfect location for all the water sports we want to do and the marinas we want to visit. And the kitchens have everything you’ll ever need! Thank you once again for an amazing week at the lake!

We had a wonderful stay in the beautiful home. It is quite remote, in the mountains and roads are very winding. The driveway is quite steep, and there are 3 flight of stairs in the house and many flagstone steps down to the lake. Boat dock (also very nice!) is reached by a steep concrete ramp. Older renters and small children may have issues with navigating and feeling safe.The kitchen is very well stocked for large groups.

Great house. Loved the view of the lake from the back decks. The two story dock was wonderful for fishing or just relaxing. There's a nice wood burning firepit for hot dogs or s'mores. A second, gas firepit on one of the decks is perfect for gathering around on a cool night.We liked that most bedrooms had their own bathrooms. Having two kitchens is also a huge plus. This house has a LOT of amenities. And the grounds are beautiful. We rented a pontoon boat for a day to explore the lake and visit nearby marinas. Well worth it.Coming down the steep driveway for the first time is a little shocking, but after a day or two, we all became accustomed to it. Would be happy for the opportunity to stay at Daydreamer again!
