Beautiful, secluded home. The house was kept nice, and very clean! Outside toys for the kids were fun while we enjoyed the fire pit. Would recommend this stay!
We made a quick family trip and really enjoyed ourselves. Our host was very responsive, the games that were provided were appreciated by all of us, and the firewood so we could easily use the firepit was a special perk! Recommend; we would definitely stay here again.
The pictures are very accurate, enjoyed our stay, would definitely recommended, Mark is a very good host.

Lance is a great guest to have. We continue to improve the property each season. We'd love to have you back in the future to see what we've done. Thank you for the kind review!
This place is a little hidden gem! The home is super clean and spacious and provides exactly everything you’d need for a long forest getaway. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking to stay in the area.

Beautiful property on a very quiet street. The house was very nice and everything you need is provided. The outdoor games and unlimited firewood were a great touch. Highly recommend this place!

Thank you for the fantastic review. We'd love to have you back anytime :)
So clean and nice finishes, really enjoyed a stay for 5 of us. They really do a nice job making you feel welcome and provide nice amenities. Yard has plenty of shade and the fire pit is awesome. Obviously an owner that cares! Thank you for a great weekend.

Thank you Andrew! I really appreciate it. Happy to see you again. When the lake is back we'll have a boat for the house as well.
Everything advertised on the website was accurate. The house was clean, had enough parking for at least 4 vehicles, yard games and a great campfire area. Definitely will think about staying here in the future

Thank you Mike! We loved hearing you enjoyed your stay.
My husband and I came with another couple for a weekend of golf. We all loved this place and felt we had everything we needed. We golfed in the afternoons, played games around the kitchen table in the evening & than had some awesome bonfires. The mosquitos were pretty bad but expected. Definitely a place we'd look forward to coming back to.
Beautiful spacious ckean house. Stocked with anything you might need or forgotten. Big yard for kids to run around. Quiet neighborhood. Only thing mosquitos are horrible, OFF doesn't work.
Very nice property with many amenities, my family loves the axe throwing game! The fire pit was a huge hit also. The house is fairly updated and has alot of cooking utensils and spices ect. They have a very nice charcoal grill for use

Thank you for your review and we're glad you enjoyed our home!
This place could not have been more perfect and accommodating as shown! It was a girls weekend away and we enjoyed every second there. Kitchen had everything needed for us to cook and enough firewood to last all weekend while we hung out at the bonfire and enjoyed the quiet and escape from the rest of the world. I highly recommend staying here whether you are coming with family or friends!

Disliked: Location
Quiet location
The inside was clean and comfortable. The outside of the property could use some love and maintenance, but that's to be expected given the woodsy location. The bugs were awful at night, making it impossible to enjoy the very nice firepit. The multiple abandoned properties on the road are unfortunate. There's nothing that can really be done about that though. This rental is definitely the nicest on the road.

Thank you for the honest feedback. The bugs can be bad when we get a wet summer! We'd love to have you back in the future.
The house was very clean and exactly like the pictures.it had everything that we needed. It was nice and quiet and were able to explore the property. The yard games they had were awesome. I went with my husband and another couple to get away so we can relax and reset and that is exactly what we were able to do. Check in and everything was very easy. Everything was perfect for us. We are already looking to book again next year for another trip.

Couldn’t get the tiki lanterns to light and the river access was more difficult than expected

Thank you for the feedback and we're always trying to improve our property to improve our guests experience. We've since added nicer lighters to make starting fires and lighting tiki torches easier. We've also added additional lights to highlight the path from the home to the water. Hopefully it'll make it better for your next stay!
