This was a very beautiful property!! We went on a family trip and everyone loved it. The home was as described and very clean. The hosts were very nice and helpful when we couldn’t find the key for lock on the boat. Anything that we forgot the hosts had anticipated and had stocked and the house. The whole family enjoyed our long weekend.

Lakeside family retreat

Location beautiful, peaceful lake and community, home and property well kept and stocked. Really enjoyed the kayaks and paddleboat that were available for use, and the sandy beach was perfect for our small kiddos. Our family had a great trip and we hope to return!

Great family vacation

Great spot for a family vacation, something for everyone. House was clean and comfortable. Plenty of space to relax and catch-up with family members we don't see often enough. For those so inclined; the kayaks and paddle boat were a great opportunity to get out on the lake. And Rose city was close enough for antique and souvenir shopping as well as picking up groceries. A fantastic place, thank you.

Girls Weekend

We had a lovely stay at this property. The lake view is gorgeous in morning over coffee or in the evening over a glass of wine. The many lake toy amenities made for very enjoyable days on the water .... and an early morning sunrise or late evening sunset kayak around the lake are the best, most relaxing ways to start and end your day. The kitchen was nicely stocked with everything you need to prepare meals. Just a wonderful property all around.

Island Lake Family Break

The property was perfect for our family to celebrate my husband’s birthday by taking a long weekend It was extremely clean and well stocked with everything we could ever need. Fishing, the dock, swimming and s’mores every day is good for the soul. Our host was available when we had a question. On the rainy days we had plenty to do for those 4-76 with puzzles and games. Thank you for sharing your spectacular property with us.

Fantastic

As soon as I walked in I felt right at home. Great beach area with a fire pit. My group loved the Kayaks and row boat. the sunroom was our favorite place to be. We noticed a picture of a man with a large pan saying "Big Garlic Milton" and we must know. Who is Big Garlic Milton?

Relaxing week on the water

The house was nicer than expected, and pictures don’t do it justice. We really enjoyed all the extra fridge and beverage space made it so there was no need for a cooler. Everyone enjoyed the peddle boat and Kayaks. The only criticism is that it was hard to sit around the fire pit in the evening due to it not being level.

Wonderful lakefront

We had an awesome stay! The house was clean and spacious, plenty of room for us to relax. There were all the necessary supplies you needed, and not just the basic, but good supplies! We enjoyed swimming, the paddleboat and kayaks and my grandson caught his first fish this summer, a nice small mouth bass. Of course we released him. The swans were also interesting to watch and some turkeys came through the yard one morning. I would definitely recommend this place!
