Plenty of room and Great Lake access

18 adults and 1 baby stayed for 4 nights in this very roomy house with perfect access to the lake. Except for the carpeting on the stairs (which needs replaced) the place was very clean. More bath towels during the humid months would be beneficial, but overall we had a great family Christmas in July and would absolutely rent this property again

Although we were a little disappointed with the upkeep of the yard/ landscaping and the cleanliness of certain areas in the house , we all had an amazing time . It was the perfect set up having both the upper & lower units for a large family / friends with both an older and younger age group .

The view was beautiful. The amount of room was perfect for my family group. A couple safety issues. The stairwell going to the basement did not have a handrail. A few of the kitchen chairs had loose legs. We bought a screwdriver and fixed it. The dishwasher upstairs the seal was not in place so it leaked, but my brother fixed it.

Spacious property. It was great for our family gathering. We all had a good time. The home does need some maintenance. Screen door on one slider was disconnected and was propped up on one side. The stairwell between the upper and lower units should have a handrail. Landscaping needs an update. Overall it was a good experience and would rent again.

Size matters

We were a large group and the house afforded space for all of us for sleeping and the children to play. There was an issue with the towels and cleanliness of the house. There was also a shortage of sheets for the pullout couches and blankets were not available for warmth

However, we're truly sorry to hear about the issues you experienced with towels, cleanliness, and linens. We hate to learn about these concerns after your stay, as we have on-site maintenance and a cleaning team available who could have quickly resolved them for you. Guest comfort is very important to us, and we encourage all guests to reach out during their stay so we can promptly address any needs. We appreciate your input and will use it to continue improving our service.

Good location. The property has not been kept cleaned. We couldnt use one of the bedrooms since there was a water leak and the owner didnt fix it (juat gave us a bucket). One of the washrooms had mini frogs and other insects. Tried to contact the property manager (Dominic) and he was going to have the owner (Roman) reach out to us. Neither of them contacted back. Not happy with their maintenance and customer service. Stay away!!!

Response from VrboOwner on 8 Sept 2025
Thank you for your feedback. We’d like to clarify a few points for future guests. Our maintenance team responded right away to address your concerns. The water you saw in the closet was not a bathroom leak, but condensation caused by one thermostat set to 64°F and another to 74°F. Once we corrected the settings, the issue was resolved. We provided a bucket as a precaution in case the thermostats were reset again by you or your guest. Regarding the restroom, our maintenance team inspected it and found no issues as stated above the leak was due to operator's error with the thermostats. As for the frog, the property is located by the lake where wildlife is common, and it’s possible it entered through an open door, and no report of the frog was mentioned until you had already checked out of the property. We strive to keep our home clean, well-maintained, and comfortable, and we regret that your stay didn’t meet expectations, and we were not willing to bargain with you for a refund after you came up with "other issues" upon check out. Feedback is always appreciated; however, your review is not in line with the hundreds of 5 stars review we receive for this location.

Room to Breathe

Group of us got together for the weekend to just hang out and recharge. Plenty of space for kids, dogs and teens to play and for the adults to have their own space as well. Great yard with grill, firepit and dock. Close to state park and 2 waterfall trails which were family friendly and a great mid-day activity. The management was friendly, easy to reach and quick to respond. Our group will definitely rent there again.

We really enjoyed the location of this house. It is right on the lake, easy to get to. Dock is shared. Only downfall is kitchen is not well equipped. We rented the whole house, ground level and upper level, plenty of room then for all 16 of us. Don't know if I would like having some else staying above though, even though you can lock stairway on both sides. Could be noise factor then of hearing footsteps above you. (As someone else said in review). House is as pictured exactly. Other houses are close by, but lake & dock is great. Went to KOA water park - kids loved it! We rented jet skis the other day. Went to a winery late one afternoon. Adult time away, with older teens babysitting. There is plenty to do in the area. We will be back in the area again, maybe at same house!

Communication with the host was quick, easy, and they are super friendly. We used both the upstairs and the downstairs unit, and there was plenty of space for our big group of 17—less than 30 minutes from stores and restaurants, and 5 minutes from ice, fishing worms, etc. The kitchen is stocked with plenty of utensils, dishes, and pots/pans, but if you plan on cooking large meals (like for our big group), you'll need to bring your own big pots (or get them from Walmart like we did). We recommend the Lake of Egypt Pontoon Rentals, aka "Weiner Rides," if you want to rent a boat. They were beyond friendly and will deliver and pick up the boat at this location. Last thing we'll say, there is PLENTY of parking. Our group was from 7 different households, and there was enough parking for all seven vehicles, which can be hard to find sometimes. We loved our stay here and will try to get back into this property when we return in a couple of years.
