Really nice property in splendid location. Reading through past reviews, water is an issue but this was not the case for us (apart from the minor inconvenience of low water pressure following if folks have a shower or use the wasjing machine). Genuine annoyance in having water seeping out of the refrigerator. Beach activities couldn't happen locally because of algae, but Wabamun Prov.Park had a really good beach and was only 15 mins away.

The house and lake were incredible. No regrets staying at this property. I would 100% stay there again. I had attempted to contact the property manager via the app messenger a week before then again a day before to see if I could have a early check-in but never heard back. I also wasn't prepared for the lengthy list in the arrival instructions email a day before arrival noting that there is an extra cost of 250 to use the hot tub and a laundry list of other details all with an additional cost attached which throughly worried me had I been staying there longer than 2 nights, because they are on a spetic system and if they need more water hauled in our the septic pump out there was more potential charges. We managed to leave without any additional charges, but we were only 2 girls for 2 nights - not sure how a large family with kids staying for a long period of time would fair. Also, not the fault of the owners but AHS has a warning for 2026 that Isle Lake does have a Blue-Green Algae. The dock is long and if you swim off the end you can avoid most contact, however there isn't a ladder, so trying to get out without walking through it is impossible.

Our stay was wonderful. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking. Sitting around the fire and found the chairs comfortable. We were confused as the listing said 5 bedrooms but there is only 4.

Girls weekend

Had an amazing stay and was perfect for what we were looking for. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of room for us all. The only downside was the water was ice cold in the upstairs master bathroom. I would definitely stay here again

Bachelorette weekend

We booked this property for a bachelorette weekend for 11 girls! The house was beautiful and very clean. The kitchen was wonderfully stocked with cooking utensils, dishes, and everything you’ll need. We spent so much time sitting and chatting on the deck that had a beautiful lake view!

Amazing location close enough to Edmonton, beautiful property, comfy beds, water pressure is a little low in some bathrooms but not an issue. Contacting owner is easy. Great time if you’re looking for a lakefront place to hang out at!

We booked this premium priced property specifically it advertised key amenities like a private boat launch and a outdoor lake shower, Unfortunately,, the listing was heavily misrepresented. the boat launch concrete base was heavily damaged and covered with branches making it risky to let a boat out. the outdoor shower was entirely disconnected, and the boat launch ropes were not well managed.Inside the property had sanitation issues such as finding women's undergarments underneath our bed, stained pillowcases and sheets, and loads of dead bugs and cobwebs both inside and outside. there were also exposed wires in the living room and kitchen.on top of that there were predatory charges such as getting a septic tank and water truck out or not cleaning when not described in the original booking. We waited to say all of our grievances to the owner to check out to avoid any potential retaliation and noted history of him not responding quickly.When this was brought up with Vrbo support he tried to deflect accountability by fabricating false counter-claims to the agent accusing our group of using a unpurchased hot tub and having a pet with us. Along with this, he stated that he was on the property at a unspecified time during our stay to the agent which we confirmed he was never there. We took videos and pictures of the damages and to show the state it was left in for everything. It has been escalated to an investigation. I would say don't rent it for your own safety and sanity

Bachelorette Weekend

I booked this property for a bachelorette party. Property was absolutely stunning. Everything you need in a kitchen is there which was so nice. Beds were comfy and the check in process was so easy. Only downside was I could never get in touch with host.. no one answered my messages or phone call. It something they need to improve.

I stayed with my family in multiple places throughout Alberta and this was our favorite. We didn't have any problems, we just enjoyed the place. The water pressure was low, but given the cleanliness, the SUP boards that were provided, and all the beautiful views we got everything we wanted and more from our stay here. The place was immaculate as we walked in and we were immediately impressed with how big it was and how comfortable it was. I loved everything about this place, but I would suggest that you find some firewood before coming if you plan to build a fire. I had some problems finding some, but luckily there's a propane firepit on the deck too. I would love to stay here again if it's available.

Amazing stay & fun weekend!

The property was amazing! The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of room for everybody. Plenty of amenities & games were available for use which we appreciated. The place is very well stocked and has everything you could need. A beautiful property right on the water - it was even more amazing in person! It was the perfect place for a girls weekend! However, we did have some difficulty getting in touch with the host. I had reached out a few times in the months leading up to our stay and didn’t receive a response, and during our visit, we accidentally tripped a breaker and weren’t able to reach anyone for help. Quicker communication would have improved our experience. Overall, a good stay & would recommend for large groups.

Awesome place!

Went to celebrate my birthday & this was the perfect place! Lots of parking available for guests. There was a bbq grill but it was not working so we had to resort to cooking burgers inside. When cooking inside the place got too warm and smoky but the house had no screen windows or patio screen to air out the place! If we opened doors or windows there was a lot of flies/insects coming inside. Other than ventilation this place was awesome! Will book again during warmer months to enjoy the lake. The dock was already pulled in during our stay.

We had a very pleasant stay. The views of the lake are truly exceptional, and the house itself was clean and well-maintained. While a deeper clean in certain areas (such as under the beds) would be beneficial, overall the property was in good condition.The hosts have also made noticeable improvements in their communication. Based on previous reviews, I was initially concerned about responsiveness, but we did not encounter any issues. The host called about a week before our stay, and throughout our time there, he was consistently reachable by text and responded within an hour.It is worth noting that this is a four-bedroom home. The fifth “bedroom” is actually an upstairs secondary living area. While it includes a comfortable couch and extra pillows, it does not have bedding, a door, or curtains, so it may not be suitable as a dedicated sleeping space.

Beautiful home

Loved it. Lots of space in the house for our group. The view from the bedrooms on the back of the house are gorgeous. The backyard is awesome. Loved the fire pit area and the sand. The host was helpful. The lake itself is pretty to look at but lots of weeds. Didn’t stop us from paddling out and jumping in for a swim. It’s a minor inconvenience that there is not access to the yard from the back of the house. You have to use the front door and walk around and the walk down is steep for less mobile people. It’s a great place and I’d definitely go back.

Girls weekend

The property was great, we had a great weekend. We specifically booked this place though as it said it had 5 bedrooms and 8 beds. There were only 4 bedrooms and 7 beds with a futon that had no bedding . We could not find the bedding for the futon in the family room(which also had no curtains, so it would have been hard to sleep in. Communication - I had emailed them twice prior to check in and twice again on the first night of check in, asking where the extra bedding was and a question about check out and we did not receive an answer to any of my emails . 2 were through the Vrbo app and 2 through google. The view was great and there was lots to do. They had paddle boards, lawn games and a paddle boat as advertised.

Our group had an incredible stay this past week! The location and home are beautiful! There was plenty of room for our large group and the kids had so much fun on the beach and out on the lake with the paddle boards! The adults were able to relax and the kitchen was roomy and stocked well for all our cooking needs. However, renters need to be aware that the upstairs ensuite does NOT have any hot water to the sink or shower. This appears to be a known issue that the owners are not willing to fix. There have been many posts about this and there still isn't hot water up there. When I sent a text asking about it I was totally ignored. I don't find that this is acceptable and the owner should just state that there is an issue and be honest about it. It didn't ruin our stay and I'd go back again, I just don't appreciate the dishonesty!

Lots of potential!

This is a great property , amazing views and beautiful house . However, the cleanliness needs work - fridge & bathroom yuck . Communication also needs work-the dock wasn’t put out and paddle boards weren’t there - when tried contacting the owner, he didn’t reply until we were back home !! He did apologize but never responded back after I sent a message about our stay - sent Monday, today is Wednesday and nothing .I wasn’t gonna write this review but the non communication made me feel like I have to . Siding on the top of the house sounded like it was going to rip off and fall on us while we were trying to enjoy the beach area . Again, beautiful property but we are disappointed. This was a bachelorette weekend and I communicated how excited we were to paddle board and fish of the dock….

Upon our arrival we found that the front door lock was malfunctioning. I called the contact and left a message, to which i received a prompt return call and the matter was resolved. This door lock issue was not rectified during our stay but only had a minimal impact on us.The lake house is very nice and has plenty of space for guests and enjoying indoor and outdoor areas. We had a couple issues with breakers tripping but this also didnt really impact us much as we just worked around the issue.The lake was not swimable due to "Blue Green Algae" heavily covering the entire shoreline and quite a ways out. We adjusted and went to Wabamun Provincial Park to enjoy the beach there for one day and for another day we went to Pembina Provincial Park to swim in the river. Both options are roughly 15 minutes away and both can get busy but are definitely refreshing. I personally enjoyed the river at Pembina better.We would come back again for the house but not for the lake. Isle Lake was disappointing for our first visit.

The property itself is beautiful and very peaceful, offering a setting that feels private and relaxing. It truly has the potential to be an amazing getaway. That said, there were some aspects of our stay that left us disappointed. First, the lake was not swimmable, which was a big letdown as it was one of the main reasons we chose this property. While the home itself appeared clean at first glance, we quickly discovered that nearly all of the dishes and kitchen items were dirty, many with food still stuck to them. This meant we had to wash everything ourselves before use, which was inconvenient and took away from our time to enjoy the property. The tv in the living room didn’t turn on. We thought we ran out of water day 3 but turns out it was the pump, I needed to reset it several times and bleed all the air out, we went a full day with no water before that was figured out. Overall, the property is lovely, but these issues had a negative impact on our experience. With better maintenance, proper cleaning, and reliable water service, this could easily be a five-star stay.

Gorgeous home and location

For the most part, this lake house is stunning, comfortable and well worth it. A few minor hiccups but our overall stay was perfect. When I first walked in there was a puddle on the floor going halfway across the kitchen. I messaged the property manager and didn’t hear anything until the following day. It turned out that Ice had built up in the freezer preventing it from closing. We the guests removed the ice build up and resolved the issue. The tap on the kitchen sink was not secured properly, it’s a bit wobbly when you move it from side to side for each sink. The upstairs master bedroom ensuite shower did not get hot water. We read that it may take a few minutes to heat up, but after 10mins it was still ice cold. All the other showers and sinks were fine and warmed up within minutes.
