Great visit

Great communication from the host and the house was roomy, private and well appointed for our two family get away. We didn’t visit the pool because the beach and swimming in the lake was so much fun. Great hiking nearby, highly recommend the 2 natural lands conservation areas. A great weekend getaway!

Amazing time!

My family and I do weekend getaways often and this is by far one of our favorite homes! It was very clean and the one small problem we had was resolved instantly, also Lisa allowed us to arrive and depart at any time we wanted as their was no booking after us, that has never happened and we appreciated it so much! Definitely recommend staying here my family can’t wait to return!

Perfect Winter Getaway

Everyone had a great time. The space was perfect for our family and there was plenty to keep the grandkids occupied at the house when not out enjoying activities in the area. Would not hesitate to rent again. P.S. Be sure to pick up some cinnamon buns at Kay's. You won't be disappointed.

Spring Break Getaway

The house was great - well-equipped, private and comfortable. Lots of wood for building fires. The inside of the house was very clean, but there were quite a few cigarette butts outside. Our dog loved the deck. The owner, Lisa, was very responsive. Would definitely stay there again.

Glad you, your family and dog had a nice Spring Break! Thank you for letting us know about the cigarettes in the yard. The house is non-smoking so we will make sure any trash is picked up in the yard by our landscaper.

Best weekend getaway ever!

Lisa and her husband did everything they could to make our weekend getaway with the family and our dog as enjoyable as possible! We did get a surprise 35 inches of snow in two days that caused us to not be able to leave and the owners told us to stay and reduced the price and let us have a super late check-out the following day. The house is large and very clean and set up perfect for the large families looking for a great weekend!! We will definitely be coming back and staying again!!

Would rebook in a heartbeat!

The property was even better then pictured. We had 8 people stay comfortably, but could easily fit 12. Two separate hang out spots each area with fire place, large sectional couches and smart TV. Everything was super clean and Lisa (the host) was really thoughtful in her touches around the house and was great in terms of communication. I would recommend to family and friends and will definitely be rebooking!
