Thank you for the wonderful review! We're so happy to hear that everything was perfect once again and that AvantStay continues to meet your expectations. We look forward to hosting you again in the future!
Mid-sized cabin feel with close proximity to local favorite spots. Our stay here was SO much better than with other properties, strongly due to the quality of the property management team.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. The cleanliness, proximity to the lake and slopes and restaurants were fantastic. The house is well stocked too! We also appreciated that the owners were readily available if we had any issues (but we didn’t). We highly recommend staying here!

It’s great to know you felt well taken care of, and we truly appreciate your recommendation. We’d love to welcome you back for another stay!
Our family of five had a great week stay at this beautiful home! Great location near the lake and short drive to several ski resorts. WiFi was good - our only wish would be for a little better set up for a "work from home" - could have used a desk in one of the bedrooms with privacy. Overall a great stay!

This house was comfortable and had a well equipped kitchen with everything you might need. Peekaboo views of the lake from the front deck and walk to Gar Woods and the Old Post Cafe. The living room furniture is adequate. I would stay here again.

Loved the location! Easy drive to Palisades. The unit was immaculate and very comfortable for mom and 2 teenagers. Loved the proximity to the lake as well for evening stroll to watch the sunset. Would highly recommend!

Livia, we are happy to hear that you had a wonderful time during your stay with us. We are pleased to learn that the house and area played a significant role in your trip. We appreciate you staying with us and hope to see you again soon.
The location is great. Close to a public beach, coffee shop, great restaurants and mini golf. All are within walking distance. Can see lake through the trees from the deck.
House was clean and very nicely decorated.
My family of four stayed for three nights. This property was very clean. The kitchen was well equipped with things needed to cook simple meals. It was quite hot in the area during the few days we were there, so we were thankful that there were fans in every bedroom.

Very comfortable house with open floor plan. Good location near the lake. We cooked a lot and the kitchen was well stocked. Good communication with avant stay. We were able to extend an extra day. I would come back here again

Thank you for your positive review and for sharing your experience with us! We look forward to welcoming you back in the future for another great stay. Thank you for choosing to stay with us!
Was just a short walk to the beach. This is a nice property in which we used the provided propane BBQ almost everyday. It was nice sitting on the patio and enjoying our meals outside. I should have brought a insect candle or torch because those bugs were out. Overall nice stay, we have an infant so the washer/dryer came in handy. We will come back for sure!

Thanks for the kind words! We are so thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your stay at our property. I hope to have you all back soon!
We absolutely loved the location—right across the street from a stunning swimming beach and just steps away from great local spots like an amazing coffee shop, Gar Woods Grill & Pier, mini golf, and several other restaurants. The house itself was clean, well-maintained, and very comfortable for our group. We had two families (4 adults and 3 kids) staying together, and while the space was a bit on the tighter side, it worked well for us. One thing to note: one of the main bedrooms didn’t have a closet, which made unpacking a bit tricky and we would have loved more pillows and blankets. Still, the overall experience was wonderful and the convenience of the location can’t be beat!

Thanks so much for the thoughtful feedback, Lindsey! We're glad to hear the location and overall comfort of the home made for a great stay. It’s great that it worked well for both families, and we appreciate your notes about the closet and extra linens—we’ll definitely take that into account. We’d love to host you again anytime!
Great property one block in from the lake. AvantStay were very responsive and made the process of check-in easy. We had one maintenance need and they were very quick to send someone out to help out. They even brought some extra baby proofing supplies to help our stay with a 1 year old go smoother. Very thoughtful.

Thank you for taking the time to review, Daniel! We're sorry to hear you had problems when you were staying with us, but it's encouraging to know that everything worked out in the end and you had a fantastic time. We are eager to host you again soon!
The property itself was perfect. It was just two of us. I wanted a larger space to be able to spread out and just be comfortable. The kitchen is well appointed - great appliances. Bathrooms are very nice. Bed is very comfortable. The ad for the property is mostly accurate. The house is not across the street from the lake or Gar-Woods. It is a block up off the main road and Gar-woods, though close, is down the main road a little bit. Plus, no one told us about the construction that was taking place right on the main road a block in front of the house. The trucks worked very late and could be heard very early in the morning. Had to wear earplugs to ensure a full night sleep.
