This is a great location and we truly enjoyed our stay. It was super hot a couple days where air conditioning couldn't keep up. Bathsrooms are quite small, but over all a very good stay.

Great location on the water! The house is older, but well-equipped with everything needed for a family stay, including kayaks, board games, full-kitchen. The host was very helpful and communicative.

We loved this house, it was clean and spacious and fit our needs. I loved the kitchen and big dining room. It’s a lovely lake cottage. My only suggestion would be a tv in the master bedroom. Also we do wish the weeds and sumac were trimmed to see the lakefront better. It’s overgrown and you can’t really see the dock or if you have swimmers from the deck. Maybe another umbrella outside too. It’s a perfect spot, just needs a little tlc outside.

Great location, well kept large home

The house was well kept and clean. Loved the attention to detail like extra coffee pods, trash bags, toiletries, spices, paper products, etc. Andy was great with communication and making sure our stay was pleasant. Beautiful view and location was great. Would stay there again.

Beautiful waterfront view with great outdoor space. All basics provided - beds comfortable - host provided great communication. House was clean, tidy, roomy but definitely old with dated bathrooms. Would return & recommend but the cost is very overpriced for the accommodations.

Family memorial gathering

The location was perfect for our needs - weather cooperated so we enjoyed an afternoon on the deck. House provided nearly everything we could need with plenty of extra paper product back up as well. This was a “necessary” stay - not getaway or vacation - otherwise I would NEVER have paid the price to reserve here. The quoted daily price was HALF the total costs once all fees were added. COMPLETELY overpriced considering the age of the home & the lack of “luxury” amenities. Would not book again unless priced accordingly.
