The house was beautiful location is amazing ! Owner was very welcoming making sure we were enjoying our stay , definitely would stay here again . Sitting on the huge porch facing the lake with light breeze was amazing
Had a great time celebrating my sons wedding. Location to the Emerson Oark venue is incredible. House was very clean & the owners couldn’t have been better. Highly recommend this property.
House was perfect location for our son’s wedding at Emerson Park. Very roomy for a large number of guests. Kids enjoyed the lake. Good for all ages from 4 to 92 years old.

This property was perfect for hosting family for our son's wedding at Emerson Park. The bedrooms are spacious and the beds are comfortable. Great porches to sit and visit with a view of the lake. Multiple indoor living spaces too. Great find!
This was our 2nd year staying in this beautiful home. Overall, an excellent vacation for our family. Communication with the host was excellent, the beds are comfortable. 2 minor concerns, new batteries were needed for a smoke alarm and were unavailable, and the kitchen knives need to be sharpened.
Great for a family weekend. Close to Emerson Park and Springside Inn. We had a banquet to attend at Springside Inn and this locstion has only a 5 minute drive
6 of us retired ladies stayed for 2 nights to explore the area. It was a wonderful house for us all to stay. Lots of room for us to spread out if we wanted to, and plenty of space for us to do a puzzle and play cards at night. It was close to everything that we wanted to see. Easy to get to. The views out the front windows of the lake were fabulous!
Cool, quirky, large clean house, in a great location. Bring water shoes if you want to go in the lake. House needs a little TLC which the owner indicated they would address. My friends and family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The front porch is a great spot to hangout and was very popular with our group.
We stayed here Labor Day weekend with a group of 12 people. The location is great and the house has lots of room inside and outside. The owner is working to update the house and it is evident throughout the house. They were very responsive to questions and we would definitely stay here again.
Our family reunion in Auburn was amazing in this big beautiful house with a spacious yard and easy lake access. Everything was just as promised and the landlord couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly. Nine adults and three kids had plenty of room to enjoy our family meals and activities. The kitchen is very large and meal prep was a lot of fun. There was plenty of bedroom space and a few bonus rooms for people to sit and enjoy a bit of relaxing time away from the bustle.
The house was clean and spacious with a warm inviting atmosphere. The view and yard were made for enjoyment. We had a large group and it was so nice that bedrooms and bathrooms were in abundance. The dining table was made for this type occasion.
We came to watch our boys in a hockey tournament. They were staying with the team in a hotel so we decided last year. To rent this house and couldn't be happier with the accaccommodations of John and Jamie. Great place. this property and t
