About this property

THE GREAT LAKE ESCAPE, AMAZING SPRING FISHING & TOP NOTCH GOLF COURSES!!!

Welcome to our 'Great Lake Escape'. This four season home offers exceptional panoramic views from most areas inside as well as outside on it's wrap around deck and expansive 450 ft of lake shore. 'Escape' today's fast-paced lifestyle or if you seek adventure, you can boat, ski, hunt, hike, fish, explore caves/and or casinos. The lakescape offers family friendly lake frontage that kids and adults are sure to enjoy. There's over an acre of yard, spacious wrap around decks and triple docks, allowing ample opportunities for outdoor fun. Location on a near point lot and idle zone of the lake keeps both street and lake traffic at a minimum. While there are many local attractions and nearby recreational opportunities to enjoy, guests comment most about amazing views of soaring bald eagles, blue herons, deer and wild turkeys; the relaxing sound of the horses hoofs clopping as they pull an Amish buggy across the causeway, the brilliance of the stars at night, and most of all---the perfect peace and indescribable quiet. From fishing to swimming to evening campfires, this is a place you will want to escape to time and time again.

Beautiful property

Beautiful property in general. House could be updated. Check in and out times could be better. The lake was quiet and peaceful. The water around the dock however was borderline suitable for swimming due to algae. The ac and hot water were good.

Great Family Getaway

We were hesitant after seeing a recent bad review but do not read into that. This place is great! Sure the cleaning people could do a little better but after all it is a lake house, you’re going to have bugs. The house fits a big family and they have everything you could need. The beds were comfortable. The location is superb. Right before we came they received significant rain which made swimming unsafe so that was extremely disappointing having driven 5 hours for that purpose only; but we couldn’t hold the owner at fault for Mother Nature. If we lived closer we would honestly come back in a heartbeat!

Horrifying

We entered through a door that didn’t want to function to the smell of musty mildew. One of the sliding doors didn’t lock, the WiFi info was hidden, there were bugs and spiders abounding. Cobwebs and dust were everywhere and trash and food remnants under the living room furniture. The upstairs bathroom didn’t lock and the shower had mold. The HVAC system was missing duct work and it struggled to cool off with the heat. The dishes were all filthy and many pans unusable. The paddle boat was broken and the sandbox was a terrifying box full of bugs. The sheets were tissue thin and pillows just as cheap. The few positives - the canoe worked and we could fish off the dock and the yard was mowed. We made it work for the two nights we stayed but it was the worst, poorest maintained rental I have seen.

Lovely setting

The property was clean and beautiful. The outdoor spaces were fantastic! The issues that we had were with uncomfortable sleeping arrangements. The bunk beds were very creaky and it made sleeping difficult. Also, if you closed the doors to the bedrooms they were super hot so we had to have all bedroom doors open which was not great for privacy or some people trying to sleep in

Broken Furnace

We were unable to stay the weekend due to a broken furnace. We are in the process of being refunded our money. We have received about 75% of the money VRBO is withholding part of the money. We do plan on using this rental in the summer.

We were very disappointed with this rental. This house is very old and needs a lot of improvements. The interior stunk when we arrived. We couldn't place the smell. It was just a foul odor. The deck flooring was rotten. One person broke through in one place. The locks on the bathroom doors were broken and the doors could not be locked. 20 people trying to shower was a real challenge with doors that do not lock. The outside pole light didn't work. Owner couldn't fix it until after our check out. The paddle boat was broken and we couldn't use it. Children very disappointed.The stairway to the upstairs isn't even close to standard building code. You hit your head on the ceiling overhang when descending the stairway. And, the stairway is very narrow. The WI-FI was extremely sluggish. We couldn't stream live sports games. The dishes, plates, cups, kitchen utensils, cookware, frying pans, etc. were all stained and "cloudy" if you know what I mean. Further more, there were not enough for 20 people. We had to run into town to purchase paper products. There was only bed spaces for 14 people. Cots were provided for the remaining 6 people, but no bedding. We had to supply.A couple of good notes - The refrigerator worked great. There was plenty of hot water and plenty of towels/wash clothes for 20 people. We spent a lot of time outside; therefore, we made the best of the vacation and could still say that we had a great time as a family outing although the facilities sucked.

Labor Day Weekend Golf Outing

Although requested 2 days prior to arrival, did not received instructions regarding how entry was to take place until 2-3 hours before arrival time. Request early check in but was denied. When we arrived the inside temperature was 78 degrees, because the outdoor temp was in the mid 90s it took from 5pm til 2am to get internal temp comfortable enough to sleep. There were dead gnats everywhere inside the house took 2 of us a little over an hour to clean up. WiFi did not work at all. TV had only 8 channels working.
