We loved sitting among beautiful flowers, greenery, birds, chipmunks and squirrels. Our teens found plenty to do in the game garage Having morning coffee on the deck and waiting for the loons to call for each other has been one of my favorites of each day.
Property was awesome. All the amenities plus many others. More things to do than you can imagine. Owner very responsive when had any questions. Lake was very clear and provided many water related toys.
This was our second year at this home and this place checks all of the boxes for me and my husband, 2 daughters and their families. The bedrooms and bathrooms accommodate our group, swimming is great, yard is perfect for bags and the garage/game area is a something that everyone uses … a great place to hang out!
This home is amazing! So many options on the property to relax, eat, play etc. The bonus huge garage has everything you need to entertain a group. We’ve stayed twice now and will
Be coming back again. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
This home was clean, spacious, and comfortable. The property was beautiful, and has quite a view of the sunset over the lake. The separate garage/entertainment center is amazing. The hosts were awesome and helpful, and communication was excellent. I would definitely stay here again.
A group of 12 of us stayed at this cabin. The garage was huge and had a plenty of games to keep us occupied. The beach was also very sandy which can be a little tough to find on this lake. Everything was easy to follow and made for a fun stay. We are booking again for next year!
Everything about our experience was amazing! The cabin is beautiful, spacious and absolutely perfect. Rob was so easy to communicate with and very responsive. The cabin had everything you could need. Such a wonderful experience. We hope to come back!!
We never met Rob or Shelley but feel like we know them after our stay. Their home was so nicely appointed; full of personal touches and decor that made it so welcoming. We have a preschooler and two tweens and the house was fun for both ages, and would be great for babies and teens as well… there were toys and books and games… and the entertainment lodge was incredible! The outdoor areas and landscaping were beautiful, the lake was great for swimming and we loved the views! Rob was responsive to texts before and during the stay. We will rent from them again for sure!
We had plenty to do for all ages. Our family especially liked the game room with all of its activities and unique collections. I think the owners should create a scavenger hunt for the game room as a fun family activity. We appreciated the beauty surrounding us ..... flowers, birds, lake with loons, and all around landscaping.
We initially booked this property because of the garage/game room but when we arrived, we were so impressed with the home and property, as well.
Me and my husband, our two daughters and husbands and their children have been vacationing every year for the past 5 years and this has been our best experience ever.
Everyone had space in the house and the garage/game room was exactly what we hoped it would be.
The kayaks and paddle boards were a nice bonus and we felt so at home during our stay.
Communication with the owners was great and there were absolutely no downsides. We felt so fortunate in finding the gem!
Our stay at this VRBO rental was absolutely phenomenal! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the outstanding amenities and luxurious touches throughout the house. The high-end furniture and inviting gathering places created a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making us feel right at home.
The real surprise came when we discovered the garage space. It was like stepping into a hidden gem! The complete kitchen bar setup and ample refrigerator space made it the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy some fun evenings! The abundance of wonderful games provided endless entertainment, making our nights even more enjoyable.
Comfort was a top priority in this house, and it showed. The bedrooms were cozy and provided a restful night's sleep, ensuring we were well-rested and ready to make the most of each day.
And let's not forget the beautiful lake! The house's proximity to the water made it incredibly convenient to enjoy all that the lake had to offer. The variety of toys available such as kayaks, paddle boards, floaters and life jackets ensured that we had a blast, whether we were splashing in the water or simply basking in the sun on the shore.
The decks and multiple patio areas were great along with the 3 fire pits!
All in all, this rental exceeded all expectations. It was a perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and fun, providing us with an unforgettable vacation experience. We cannot recommend this place enough and look forward to returning in the future!
From start to finish this cabin is beyond lovely. Rob was responsive and helpful before and during our stay. The house is spacious, clean and stocked with anything you may need. Our family rented a pontoon from BJs and docked at the house during our stay. The garage is amazing. Our family spent the evenings playing ping pong, shuffle board and cards. I can’t say enough good things about this property. We will definitely be booking again next summer!
We stayed at this wonderful VRBO over Labor Day weekend, it was by far the best lake home we have ever rented. The lake was crystal clear and sandy, wonderful for swimming. The separate party room / game room / garage was INCREDIBLE and super fun. The house is setup up with everything you could ever need and was very clean and comfortable. We have already set up our trip for next year now.. knowing this place will be booked up pretty quick once the word gets out about this place.
