Our stay was great. House all everything we needed. Weather was perfect for enjoying the deck and dock area. We had a group of 12 and house accommodated us perfect.
Unbelievable lake house, my group had a fantastic time. The kitchen was the best stocked kitchen I have had at a rental property. We didn’t have kids, but the children’s rooms looked like a blast for little ones.The architecture lives up to the photos, with a fantastic outdoor space, and beautiful living spaces. We had a great time using the pool table, ping pong, foosball, etc, which were all in great condition. Comfy beds too!Highly recommend, and we would love to return.
This was our second visit and we had just as much fun this time. Our host was very responsive since we were dealing with a snowstorm coming in while we were there.
The property was perfect for our group of 12. The kitchen was delightful to cook in and we enjoyed every meal and board game around the huge dining room table. Touring the lake in a kayak and walking the loop around the lake were both wonderful activities.
A beautiful home with lots of spaces. Fantastic outdoor areas and kayaks provided. Host is amazing and game rooms also very nice for all. We had an amazing week and enjoyed all of the homes thoughtful touches.
My family and I had a wonderful stay here. The house was stunning!!! The lake was very quiet and my grandchildren and children loved kayaking. Evenings with an outdoor fire were very relaxing.
Gorgeous , stunning , breathtaking views and accommodations . Kid and adult friendly . Stunning inside and out !! The hosts are wonderful also , we will be back !
We had a spectacular long weekend and wished we could have stayed longer. The house was large enough that everyone had their own space(No need to share a bathroom!) The layout, amenities(workout room, game room, pool table,etc), lake view and privacy were perfect.
Wow!!! What an amazing home and stay! We had such an amazing week on the lake and wished we could have stayed another week! The house was super clean, very comfortable and large enough that everyone had their own space. The layout is so open and spacious, and the amenities (deck, kayaks, hot tub, game room, pool table, etc.) were awesome. The lake view and privacy were perfect, and everyone in the Montrose area were so nice. The host was super responsive and helpful! We certainly plan to be back!!
The house is fantastic. It is a perfect getaway for friends and families. It was spacious and had amenities for all to enjoy. It was a bit of a drive to elk mountain ski resort but well worth the drive. The views of the lake and the mountains were amazing. Thanks for a great stay
This house and location are fantastic. We had 12 people (9 adults, 3 teens) and everyone had enough space. The lake was great for kayaks and paddle boards (provided) and swimming. It’s a quiet lake so you’ll have it all to yourself most of the time. Hosts are very responsive and friendly.
Amazing house! Our large family had room to spread out. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for all. Lots of activities to do right on site with the kayaks, standing paddle boards, pool table, foosball table and ping-pong table. The kids played for hours on the nice sand beach. The well stocked kids playroom kept the kids busy for hours with games, toys, play loft and dress-up opportunities. The adults got to enjoy the hot tub overlooking the lake. Convenient to the supermarket and a couple of outings to the zoo and hiking trails. Nice quiet walks around the lake. Communication was great and they were quick to answer all my questions.
We had a great week at Heart Lake! The home is absolutely stunning and fully equipped with almost everything you could need. Dan and Gretchen were attentive to all our needs and quickly answered any questions we had. I would highly recommend thus property and Dan and Gretchen to all of my friends and family.
This property is incredible! The size, layout, location, amenities were all top notch. Further, the owner, Gretchen, is an absolute delight and made sure we had everything we needed. The house was full with family spread all over..the lake, the workout room, the game room, the pool table, the outdoor kitchen, with the sounds of fun coming from all directions, yet no one was in each others' way. We look forward to coming back for many years to come!
This is a top notch rental! The house was in spectacular condition. The owners were extremely responsive and kind, immediately texting answers to any questions. There are numerous beautiful bedrooms, a stunning kitchen/hang out area, hot tub, game room. We can't wait to go back. The views of the lake are beautiful. It was a 35 minute drive to Elk Mountain, where we skiied for 3 days. Loved it.
Everything was excellent and we were amazed how good and thoughtfully this house is equipped and well maintained. The major big bedroom is very comfortable and you can spend hours in the bathroom with two showers. The lake view is unforgettable and beautiful. The only confusion that we had is one of the bedrooms was listed as a queen size bad and that this is have a crib, but we found a full bed with no crib. it was not so comfortable for two people to share this bed. Our family mad a great time
This is - hands down - the best rental our family has ever enjoyed. The house is incredible in every way. Our family of 8 adults enjoyed this beautiful home which was equipped with everything we needed to enjoy a perfect week on Heart Lake. Each couple had a private room and bathroom. We used every bit of the sprawling, well-equipped kitchen and outdoor grill to make big family meals every night. There were enough kayaks and paddle boards for our lake adventures and the hot tub and fire pit were amazing. The house has so many thoughtful nooks and crannies, and the rooms were comfortable and perfect for giant family meals, relaxing, and games. The supermarket and liquor store were just a quick 5 minutes down the road, but the house felt secluded and tucked away from everything. We enjoyed beautiful, scenic walks around the lake and surrounding area. Gretchen was so nice and accommodating. We would love to come back again! Thank you, Gretchen! You made our family so happy.
