Your stay will be unsurpassed with a large dining table to seat 10-12 with a large kitchen island for extra bar seating and an open kitchen to cook meals and enjoy your family and friends.

On the edge of shangri la

Great home, bedrooms are good for two families with kids. The dock could probably used for swimming but it was too cold when we visited. Good location, 3 min drive to shabgri la resort

Lovely home. Great location on Monkey Island in a nice cove, but close to a marina for boat rental. Grandkids loved swimming off the dock.

Very nice with great view, relaxing

Nice home, a little challenging for 80 year olds but manageable, the steepness of driveway, and parking for 3 cars, loading and unloading. The front step was just manageable, any higher and it would be more challenging. Couldn't negotiate going to the dock. Taking was limited.walks was

Family time

Great place and great location. Excellent family room and comfortable beds. Fridge didn’t work when we got there but then was cold day 2 when we came off the lake. Owner will get that fixed. Would highly recommend.

Mini Vacay

It was a perfect stay for a mini vacation with family and friends! The views were breath taking! We enjoyed playing on the lake, swimming, fishing, playing games, and more.. Yes, the walk to the dock is steep but remember this lake used to be up a lot more.. just use the nice railing provided! Food on the water was amaing and even cooked within the home. A home away from home! Definitely will book here again!

The Perfect Lake Retreat

This home was great from top to bottom! The newly remodeled interior & decor was beautifully finished. The large open living & dining space was perfect for our group of 8 to gather. The home was clean & well equiped with everything a large group would need. The scenic windows & extra large deck made it easy to enjoy the stunning lake views. The firepit was a nice addition & made for fun nights under the stars. Communicating with the owners was thorough & easy. We highly recommend this home for your Grand Lake get away.

Ideal Location & Place

This is our THIRD time at this location and absolutely love it. Facing the North always provides great open views of the lake, the home is well stocked with everything a family needs to enjoy their time on the lake. If you have a boat, there is a handy dock. Minutes away from Shangri La Resort, and many options to eat a local restaurants ON or off the lake! We love it here. Host if amazing to work with!

Great location, great layout

Overall our stay was pretty fantastic this weekend. The location is excellent on Monkey Island, and the view of the lake is stunning. The house itself was fairly clean, though there were several spiders and spiderwebs inside the house, but it is a lake house on the water, so some bugs are to be expected. We did have several kids with us, and quickly realized the dock would be unusable for our stay. Even the adults opted not to risk the steep pathway and difficult hike back up - but to be fair, the listing is completely open and honest about the dock and slope. So we went into the weekend knowing the dock might be a non-option for us. Overall, we would stay here again!
