We had a wonderful stay! Everything was just as described. The house was well appointed, comfortable and clean. It had everything we needed and more! Dusty was quick to respond and accommodating. We will have to come back when we have more time! It was a lovely area with lots to do. Highly recommend!
Great location ! Loved over looking the beach area. It was chilly at night so we had a fire in the fireplace every night. Enjoyed that so much. Beds were comfortable and accomplished all 10 of us. Hope to return!!!!
Lovely home, just as described, with a well equipped kitchen, very comfortable beds and bed linen, overlooking the lake, with wonderfully close and lengthy walking trails.
We had a wonderful time at The Roost. The view of the lake was wonderful! The home is comfortable and there was plenty of room for all seven of us. Walk down to the lake and the beach club and close to trails. We will be back!
Beautiful house, location & scenery! Everything you need to enjoy, relax & have a great time! Our family of 9 had the best time! Plenty of room & all kind of activities! Owner was exceptional hostess & highly recommended! Hope to get to return!
This property is outstanding! So many nice touches like hammocks, lots of family friendly games (ping pong, darts, giant scrabble) and a spacious deck allowed our group to spread out. We did not realize one of the bedrooms is a loft so the folks who slept there didn't get much sleep due to noise below but that was our only issue. Otherwise, a wonderful place for our family. Dusty was also very responsive to our questions prior to checkin.

Response from VrboOwner on 12 Dec 2025
Thank you for your review. I do need to be clear that there are 4 true bedeooms with closing doors as stated in the Vrbo description of the property. The 5th room with 2 twin beds and a daybed is a loft above the main level den. Sorry for the confusion. So glad you enjoyed your stay at The Roost.
We felt on vacation instantly in this beautiful home. Lovely view of the lake, comfortable beds with high quality linens, every provision we could have hoped for. Responsive and gracious host. We hope to return! Thank you!
We had a wonderful stay at the cabin. We had everything we needed and enjoyed all the games available. The hammocks were so relaxing and the Big Canoe community is amazing. We will be back!
Everything we needed and more. Quick responses from owner. The people at the gates were very helpful and friendly. We (12 of us) all enjoyed our stay! Absolutely perfect!
