Thank you for choosing Sunset on The Way for your Candlewood Lake getaway, and for taking such good care of our home. We hope to see you again in the future!
What a beautiful home with a spectacular view. We had the most relaxing, fun filled vacation!! The amenities were over and beyond what any of us ever expected.
Property was beautiful When we arrived read the guest book to learn we could not swim off the dock, very disappointed

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay at Sunset on The Way. We apologize for the miscommunication regarding the dock and waterfront area. When the house was first listed, the waterfront was under construction and unsafe for guest use. Somehow, that information was mistakenly left in the guest book after the waterfront was renovated at the end of last season. When we were made aware of the mistake (almost immediately upon check in), we clearly communicated via text that the information was left in the book in error and you could indeed swim and boat off the dock. We apologize if that communication was somehow lost or misconstrued. Best wishes.
The lake is clear and warm in the summer. Plenty of shoreline for kayaks and some small islands nearby. The house is exactly as pictured, with unimpeded views of the lake. Plenty to see and do in the area. Host communication was excellent. We would visit again.
Our stay was absolutely wonderful. The lake view was both amazing and incredibly peaceful, offering a perfect retreat from everyday life. The property itself is a five-star experience, equipped with everything we could possibly need. Every detail, from the deck to the stairs and dock, was thoughtfully designed. We will undoubtedly rent this property again.
This is one of our favorite properties. The house situated perfectly to allow the parents to walk straight in with only a few steps, which is rare in this area, and also perfectly equipped with pretty much everything you would need. The views are amazing at all times of the day. The host are very responsive to questions (should you have any). We will definitely be back.

The only thing that makes us happier than a satisfied guest is a satisfied return guest. Thank you so much for choosing us again and for your kind words. We look forward to hosting you in the future!
We had an absolutely fantastic stay at this lakefront property! The outdoor gathering spots are plentiful and perfect for family and friends to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Whether it was morning coffee on one of the many decks, or simply lounging in the sun, every moment was magical.
The kitchen was incredibly well-stocked with everything we needed to prepare meals, which made our stay even more convenient and enjoyable. The entire place was spotless, and it was clear that a lot of care goes into maintaining the property.
Overall, this is a gem of a place, and we can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable lakefront retreat!
We will be coming back to this property again the next time we come out east to watch hockey. Quiet neighborhood with excellent west view overlooking the lake when the sun sets. The property was very clean it with all items in working order. The manager was excellent in the communication process also. Looking forward for another visit to this well maintained property.

Thank you so much for being the perfect (first!) guests, and for treating our home with such respect. We look forward to hosting you again in the future!
stayed here for a week with my wife. plenty of places to relax, dock for swimming (or rafting/floating) close to restaurants and grocery stores.
the lake can be a bit busy with boats, more so than i expected so the water can be a bit choppy at times. otherwise the physical location can’t be beat.
the house itself was fantastic very clean well stocked, plenty of places to sit and relax. the questions we had were promptly answered by the property manager Lisa.
definitely would recommend for adults or older kids; it’s a lot of steps down to the dock but luckily plenty of places to catch your breath if needed on the way back up.
The house was very clean and stocked with all the necessities, such as paper towels, napkins, detergents for sink, dishwasher, washing machine, shampoo conditioner and hand soap. Lovely house with upgraded design. Beds were very comfortable. Did not get to use outside due to rain and colder climate but the view was great from inside.Only have 2 concerns: the last step going downstairs. It needs a minor repair in the crack on the overhang part of the step. Also, kitchen has a crack in the laminate flooring that causes a slight scuff on the foot when walking from the kitchen to dining table.Other than that, it would rate 5.

Thank you for choosing Sunset on The Way for your family celebration and for taking the time to share your thoughts. We regret that your stay fell short of a 5 star experience, and we are addressing the issues that you mentioned. We hope that you will give us an opportunity to host you again in the future.
We had a wonderful 5 day stay with our adult boys, a chance to visit with family who lived locally! This house offers stunning lake views from sliding doors all along the living room/kitchen area, beautiful sunrises and sunsets! The house location is in a very quiet neighborhood but convenient to stores/restaurants! A lovely deck with year round furniture, even in frigid temperatures we enjoyed time around the fire pit! Thank you Lisa, property manager, for setting up a beautiful Christmas tree, it was the perfect touch for our holiday trip! We had a weather related hiccup on Christmas Eve, property manager worked very closely with us to handle the issue! House is on the smaller side, no more than 6 people; more suited for couples or families with older children, great parking area. Highly recommend this property, will definitely consider staying here in the future!
