Nice Weekend Getaway

Enjoyed the house and it met our needs for our friends and family. Only issue we had was no carpeting or curtains which were shown in the pictures. Which really dampens the sound. Otherwise the house was as advertised. Would recommend this house again.

Family week

Good location on the chain of lakes. Enjoyed our bay area, we had 8 grandchildren under 8 years old and the beach/ pier area was great for all. Used paddle boards and kayaks extensively. House worked perfectly with kids room secluded in the basement and TV and bunk beds for them. Nice kitchen layout and liked the picnic tables on the deck where we ate most of our meals. Use of garage was nice and lawn area worked well for yard games. We'll pleased overall.

10 Stars on the Chain!

John is an impeccable host and his properties, inclining this one, are truly outstanding. We have rented another property in the past and decided to do a last-minute booking for Memorial Day weekend with John again. If I could give 11 out of 10 stars, I would. Not only was the property massive, it was extremely clean, well-appointed, comfortable and had absolutely stunning views. We had a group of just six and this house can easily accommodate several large families. We were able to easily dock our rental boat at the convenient dock and had an absolute blast with multiple generations. Please stay here! It won’t disappoint and you’ll be so glad you did.

Fun in the sun.

The cabin was just great for our family, ranging in age from 10-70’s. The owner was there at checkout-in & helpful during our stay. The cabin was clean & comfortable.The location was perfect & the whole family enjoyed the pontoon ride around the chain of lakes.
