This property is right on the lake. Has kayaks, paddle boards, towels etc for fun on the water. Many outdoor comfortable chairs on the dock, the deck and patio to enjoy relaxing. Beds are super comfy. Plenty of space for everyone to spread out inside. Kitchen is ell equipped for making your own meals. It's a short walk to a nice trail for hiking or running on.

My college roommates and I celebrated our 50th birthdays together with a girls weekend. This was a perfect location. We spent the weekend floating in the lake and crafting on the deck and singing by the fire. The house was clean, cozy and comfortable. Would absolutely recommend.

The name of the Vrbo stay “Destination Relaxation” lives up to the name. The place was clean comfortable, and had all necessary items you would need. It was an added plus that there were kayaks, stand up paddle board, paddle boat, floats, life jackets and much more. We had a great time enjoying the beautiful view.

The name says it all! This property is amazing!! The views of the lake from the living room and dining area were just beautiful. The quiet neighborhood gave us the chance to really relax and enjoy our girls weekend! The fireplace and multiple outdoor seating areas are just an added bonus. Abi our host was fantastic! She made us feel very welcome and was available for any questions or needs. I would recommend Destination Relaxation to everyone looking for a getaway. I can't wait to return!

We had a wonderful time, and the property was nothing less than perfect. The boathouse was a bonus and stocked with everything we could have wanted to enjoy time on and in the lake. We especially enjoyed the paddle boat. The house was well equipped for our needs, and the deck had a beautiful view.

We loved this house!! The owners have thought of everything that you could possibly need. Beds were so comfy and bathrooms were recently remodeled and very nice. I’ve stayed at many VRBO homes on the lake and this one was definitely one that I’d rent again!

Grad celebration

We were in town for my son’s graduation from Cornell, and the lake house was the perfect retreat after a long drive.The home was peaceful, cozy, and beautifully set up with everything we needed. We especially appreciated all the thoughtful touches—it truly felt like a home away from home.We couldn’t have asked for a better space to relax and celebrate such a special occasion. Thank you for helping make the weekend so memorable!
