A very bright and airy feel to this lake house to enjoy all the seasons. The rooms are tastefully decorated and a view of the lake and grounds are available from almost every window.

The entire home including the bunk house is available from April 1 to Dec 1 yearly and will sleep up to 12.
The bunk house is NOT accessible during the months of November to the end of March, so the main house will sleep up to 7 with a fold out couch for children.

We just came back from the lake house on Johnson Cove a few days ago. Our group was for adults and one three year-old. The view was spectacular from the living room and communication with Dave was exactly how I needed it to be.Thank you, Dave and family. My family enjoyed your home

This is by far one of the best hosted houses we have ever stayed in. There was not one thing that we needed that was not provided. From excellent cookware, a well stocked kitchen, baby supplies, kayaks and life jackets. We couldn’t have asked for more. The grounds were lovely, the beach amazing, and the house immaculate. My only hesitation in recommending it is that others will find this gem and we won’t be able to rent it next time! Thank you so much for such a thoughtfully maintained home!

Beautiful views, beautiful home, and lots of room

Everything about this place is stunning! There is plenty of room for everyone to spread out and do their own thing. The view of the lake is very serene and calm. We took advantage of the kayaks and canoe as well. The owners are very responsive when you have questions as well. We would definitely recommend staying here.

We are so happy you enjoyed your stay and for such a wonderful home we are sorry the description of the bathroom layout was overlooked before you arrived. We purposely are very clear that the one full bath is in the master and apologize that you didn't recognize that through the listing.

I cannot say enough good things about this property! To start, the view is to die for! The house itself is completely updated, and looks right out of a magazine! The fact that they let you have access to kayaks and a canoe, and life jackets!! The kids enjoyed swimming right off the dock! The house was immaculate! Spotless! Smelled wonderful!

Beautiful clean waterfront comfortable home

House had everything needed, beds were very comfortable Home equipment with cleaning supply and vaccum and brroms which families with kids we appreciated very much. Only small inconvenience was the room with single beds and bunk beds is separately from actual home ( kind of garage across)and kids were afraid to sleep there but nice hangou spot for day tome for the kids, ot had tv and lots of games. They provided wood for fire pit which is lovely. Overall 5 out of 5.
