History + Charm

We were competing in the Augusta 70.3 Ironman event. 2 families of 4 and 2 grandparents stayed at the farmhouse. It allowed everyone to have their own rooms which was clutch after 20+ hour drive from Kansas! Huge indoor and outdoor dining options allowed us to all eat together. The house is equipped with everything you need and the yard is giant and well maintained so the kids had a blast running and racing. They have a fire pit so s’mores were a hit and the short walk to the lake was so convenient. The kids loved the kayaks and building sand castles. My only complaint is the distance from home because I wish I could come back again and again. We are taking so many memories home with us. Highly recommend staying here!

Incredible place

We had a multi-generational family gathering in this beautiful lakeside house. The pictures don't do it justice—it's an excellent place for groups, plenty of space, plenty of bathrooms, different areas inside for people to be on rainy days, a huge deck and yard for the sunny ones. We spent a lot of time in the lake and in the kayaks. People at the private beach were super nice, and overall, the whole place has a great vibe. We spent four nights here, and cooked all but one meal here. The place has everything you need and more. Tracey is super responsive, helpful, and kind. I wish we could all go back, like, tomorrow.

30th birthday hangout with friends

This house was exactly what we needed and more. The only common thing to come up that made us hesitant at first was the large cleaning fee because on the same hand you are required to do the dishes and take all trash out to a dumpster behind the barn..but it is a large house. We are just used to leaving places as we found them (clean) and haven’t had cleaning fees that high before but I’m sure that’s from prior guests ruining that lol. The fact that is used to be a BnB has it set up perfectly to travel with friends and family. Ample space, privacy with 5 bathrooms and a couple even in the bedrooms. The kitchen space was great to do a collaboration with dinner and the living rooms were so cozy to end the night in together. Tracey was very easy to get in touch with and accommodating. We would love to rent this place again during the summer so we can enjoy the lake. The house is beautiful and has all the old charm while feeling modern due to again…all the bathrooms! We loved this stay and will be back.
