The house is exactly as advertised. Great place for large groups. Beautiful location and well taken care of home. Alyshia is great at communicating and was helpful throughout the booking and stay! Would 100% recommend to friends and family!
My buddies and I booked this lakefront Vrbo for a guys weekend, and it was an absolute home run! From the moment we arrived, the property exceeded our expectations. The house is spacious, and perfectly set up for a group of guys looking to celebrate.
This place is beyond what is described. Such a beautiful setting with amazing access to the lake. The top deck is perfect, I didnt want to leave. Worth every penny.
This house was perfect for a large group of friends to spend the weekend on the lake. House slept 11 people comfortably. Very nice house and great access to the lake.
10 guys stayed prior to golf trip at Lakewood Shores Resort.
Excellent location
Property was great for our use and as described in listing
No issues with checkin
Would stay again
Kids had a blast with the beach and beach toys right off the back deck. Extra ac units in rooms were definitely put to use. Owner was easy to get in contact with when needed. Only issue was really one of my own doing and it was not writing down the code to get in before getting to the house as wifi is almost non exsistint until you go in and connect to theirs. I would also recommend bringing food with you as the one market there is limited compared to a Kroger. It was a nice family trip.
Had 13 of us on the property to have a fun weekend away and had a great time. House is comfy and the response time was great. All amenities were great and easy to use. Great place on a secluded lake.
Our group had a great time! We enjoyed the peace of the lake and had a great time enjoying the house!

About the host
Hosted by Alyshia Williamson
My husband, Justin, and I began renting our first cottage on North Lake when we were too busy with our kids summer sports to enjoy it with our family. Glennie has become such a popular up north vacation destination, we now own three houses in Glennie! We get so much joy from sharing our homes with guests, and love hearing reviews of how they are making the same memories our family has been able to enjoy since coming to Glennie!
