Spring break trip

This property was fantastic. The road and driveway are slightly difficult to navigate but our group did just fine driving a mini van as well as a 12 passenger van. The home had everything we needed. The dock and kayaks were a hit with the kids!

Very nice lake house.

Would’ve been better if the weather was warmer. Was a little hard to find because we arrived late, and cell service was difficult to get. Definitely a nice property if you need more space.

Comfortable property

We had a wonderful stay. We arrived at night and it was a little difficult to find the property. We accidentally turned into the house next door before realizing we were in the wrong place. The house was clean and updated with lots of amenities. We have already suggested this property to friends who have plans to visit the area.

Clean and crisp

Our group of 11 enjoyed 3 nights in this clean and crisp lakehouse while venturing to the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum. It was convenient to both. Well stocked kitchen and every single dish we used was spotless! Truly a treat. Loved sitting on the upper deck with coffee and gas fire table - pleasant view and surroundings. Kids had fun with the kayaks and foosball. Thanks for an easy stay.

Large space with a great family room for kids to play in. There were sharp edges and lots of stairs so we had to keep an eye on the toddlers who had some falls and bumped heads. Owner was very responsive once our stay started.

Wow!

Our entire group thoroughly enjoyed out stay at the lakefront property. The property was gorgeous, the view upon arrival was scenic, the kitchen/house was stocked with everythin you need, perfect for a ladies getaway. THE ONLY THING I would keep in mind for future guests is the entrance; the road-to-driveway transition IS SCARY, very steep and very tight. We had two SUVs in our party so we did have room, but it was still scary parking and leaving everytime. That being said, I would come back. Plus my post-stay interaction after leaving a pillow (my bad) was very patient and kind, so that was a .

Quick family getaway

The house was super cute and well stocked, with beautiful views. The downside is that the property is on a hillside and is very steep. People with mobility impairment will have a hard time getting to the dock and back. Also the structure walls ceiling and floor are made of wood so noise travels through the house. The property is super close to the Ark Encounter and we enjoyed watching geese and ducks from the decks. Nearly every day when we left we saw deer and turkeys near the road.

Best trip ever!

We enjoyed the lake house and neighbors are so nice! In the other reviews it talks about the drive way being way to steep but we came in at night and it did seem a little steep but when we woke up and saw all the other drive ways ours is just perfect! The place was nice and clean and we enjoyed watching the lightning storm from the deck!

Weekend get a way

We had a wonderful weekend, but felt like for the money we could not give this a 5 star. There were many stink bugs as well as debris found on the floor and kitchen counters and an odd smell coming from the kitchen sink. There is no sound barrier in the home and made it difficult with having a sleeping baby. The drive to ark was Convenient and the view was pretty on the water.

Beautiful views inside and out

We had a great weekend getaway with a beautiful view at this lakefront property! We were only minutes away from the Ark Encounter and only 45 minutes from the Newport Aquarium. This lakefront home has floor to ceiling windows overlooking the lake with comfortable outdoor furniture, grill, firepit and even kayak access from their dock. You have a large upstairs bedroom with 2 large beds, 2 bedrooms on the main floor (one with bunkbeds & trundle, and the other with a queen) and a queen bedroom on the bottom level. The house has 2 large bathrooms, a comfy living area with fireplace and tv, and a kitchen stocked with all you need. The bottom level also has a daybed, video game machine, foosball table and plenty of toys to keep little ones busy. The downstairs porch also has a cute little swing for the kids. The house is modern, clean and comfortable with a gorgeous view! The homeowner was easy to reach by text and took care of all our needs. I would definitely recommend this gem! I would like to lastly mention that many of the reviews complain about the driveway, and yes, the driveway is steep, but all the driveways on this lake look to have steep drives. The owners are very helpful in recommending how to approach their driveway and we had no issues. I would not let the driveway scare you away from this lake home.

Sisters Trip to Ark

It was extremely difficult to find the house in the dark. There was no sign, mailbox or light. The driveway was difficult to turn into and very steep. If we had known how scary the driveway was we would have not rented the house. Having said that the views were very good from the house. One bed downstairs was small and no way to cover windows. Every step we took on the main floor was heard downstairs. The house was clean and spacious.

Amazing Lake House!

The Lake House was beautiful and well-equipped. Everyone had a great time kayaking and enjoyed watching the deer. It was within minutes from Noah’s Ark. My son is already requesting to go back. The owners were very helpful and quick to respond.
