We had a perfect stay. The house was roomy, super clean and very well appointed. The beds were super comfortable and the view was spectacular. Standing at the kitchen counter and looking at the panoramic lake views, it felt like I was on a boat. Great visit . Thank you!

Beautiful home with more space than we needed. Very clean with bath and bed linens provided which is always a bonus. The game room downstairs was also a big hit in the evenings.The minor negatives that we found were that the lake has pretty heavy vegetation (which is obviously out of the owner's control) making it hard to swim near the house. The owners do a great job keeping the little beach area clear though so getting in and out is without difficulty. With this said, we were happy to have the paddle boards, kayaks, and paddle boat all of which we used every day. We were also able to get out on our floaties in the water. The only other thing is that we did do a lot of cooking/eating at the house and there really weren't any spices left for use so be prepared with what you need. Overall, I'd say our experience was still great and the views and sunsets were outstanding. Huge Thanks to Mike & Tara for sharing their beautiful home!

Bridal shower weekend

The property was perfect! The sleeping arrangements worked for the family units. The extra space in the basement was perfect for us to play cards and watch tv while those who went upstairs to bed were never aware of any noise. Clean with lots to offer, beautiful view. We’d love to come back!

Quiet family time

We had a wonderful week at this house. Plenty of space for everyone to spread out. We loved all the decks that gave us both sun and shade in the afternoons so there was something for everyone. The only downside is the amount of seaweed in the lake. The town does come to try and clean it up but if you’re looking for a place to swim this isn’t it. You’d need a boat to go to the middle of the main lake for that or to go to the beach down the road ( for a fee).

Wonderful property and location

We had a wonderful stay at your beautiful lakeside property over Christmas. The kitchen is well appointed and the location is beautiful. Being winter, we did not utilize the lake but it would be fantastic for summer use. You can get straight into one of the bathrooms from outside and also the kitchen which would be very useful if enjoying the lake. There is also a large 1/2 bath downstairs for changing. The beds were comfortable and the place was very clean. There were only four of us so we had a bedroom each. One of our party has mobility concerns so a bedroom on the living floor was perfect. I would recommend this property to anyone! It was excellent value for money and if we are ever in the area again we would definitely rebook.

Great house and location on the lake

My family and I had the best time staying at Mike and Tara’s house! The house was big, clean, exactly as pictured and in a great location on the lake. My kids had a blast fishing off of the dock each day and taking out the kayaks and stand up paddle boards. Check in process was easy and Mike checked in with us several times to make sure we had everything we need. We can’t wait to go back!
