Had such a great stay here! The home was gorgeous with amazing lake views, super quiet but still close to everything you need. The owner was awesome — really hands-on and helpful the whole time. Would love to come back someday!

We had a great time. We stayed 6 nights and used the property as our home base. We spent 2 days just relaxing on the property enjoying the lake and the trails that are just up the hill. The other days, we took day trips. The location was very convenient. The house itself and the grounds are well maintained, and John and Patti were very gracious hosts.

House was clean and beautiful. I personally love the mid-century modern look of the house. You could see the house has been well cared for through the years. Hosts were excellent. If I had a question, they responded immediately. The lake view was amazing. We miss waking up to that view every morning. Highly recommend staying there!

The house was comfortable and the view of the lake was beautiful. The kids enjoyed using the kayaks and paddle board. The host told us we were on the best spot in the lake for fishing, and we did catch several trout from the dock.

Highly Recommend! A Perfect Lake House for Family Gatherings!We live in Seattle but had family visiting from out of town, so we wanted a spacious place where everyone could relax, spend time together, and enjoy some fun activities. John and Patti’s lake house was exactly what we were looking for!We loved having access to the watercraft and spent some wonderful time out on the lake. Every evening, we grilled and enjoyed family dinners on the deck, making great memories together.I also had the pleasure of meeting John, and we had a great time swapping travel stories and adventures. It was such a nice personal touch!The house truly felt like a home away from home, and everyone had a fantastic time. We highly recommend John and Patti’s lake house and would absolutely stay here again!

We thoroughly enjoyed your visit and are happy you felt “at home.” It was fun swapping travel stories and getting a chance to speak a little Thai. Although my ability has waned over the years and have forgotten most. We’d love to see you visit again.

Thank you, Anne. You and your family were delightful. Our timing of installing a new swim ladder on the dock was fortunate. We were impressed with your daily long distance swimming. Glad you all had a good time. Would be happy to see you return.
