Very good, relaxing
I've done the island thing on Winni many times before so I had a good idea what to expect, and I wasn't disappointed. It was all very relaxing, clean, very nice place. For some reason we thought there was a washer/dryer, when I went back to the listing I didn't see it so I guess I was confused. But I would definitely suggest they be added. Tracking down and using a laundromat is a real detriment when you're on an island and on vacation and I'd rather do a small wash on wednesday than bring more out with me. Just a suggestion, like I said, it was a good relaxing time.

Family lake vacation
The home was exactly as described and the pictures were accurate. The views were awesome...we caught a couple sunrises which were beautiful. We used the kyacks and the canoe...fished from the dock. The home had everything we needed for a family of 6. We rented a boat from Trexlers Marina which worked out pretty well. I'd recommend renting from a nearby marina as you'll need your car from time to time for day trips/grocery shopping...a nearby marina will simplify island logistics. The lake is huge and the open water areas can get rough-we rented a 21 foot boat and I wouldn't have wanted anything smaller. The hosts were EXTREMELY responsive and really went above and beyond. I left a life jacket behind that belonged to the marina and the hosts returned it for us...How nice!

Leclair Family Summer 2023 Vacation
The perfect spot for our family! Two teen boys and two large dogs, us and even a friend joined us one night. Plenty of room - we grilled, cooked dinners, did WFH - my husband took a zoom meeting video on and NO issues. Kids used the kayaks, canoe, paddle board, streamed TV, hooked up their switch. The family was wonderful to deal with, good communication and good conversation. We would recommend anyone rent this place - just not when WE want to come back again ;) Thank you for your hospitality!
