House was beautiful and comfortable - the pics represented it well. Yes, there's a steep set of stairs descending to the lake, but that wasn't a big deal and children were able to navigate them easily with adult supervision. Attention to a few small areas would help push this to a 5-star stay: There was a strong smell in the basement/bunk floor (maybe fresh paint?) that made it impossible for some of us to be there for the first day and night of our stay without coughing. The pots and pans all had scratched, non-stick coatings and need to be replaced to be safe to use. There wasn't a tea kettle. The doors were difficult to close inside the house. And there weren't any directions on how to handle the indoor and outdoor flues when using the outdoor fireplace - the owner/manager also didn't know how to advise us when the house started filling with smoke (although later we all figured it out). The house has a lot of potential and we had a really nice stay, but it would help to work these small kinks out.

Lovely lake house

We had a beautiful fall weekend at this gorgeous, spacious, modern lake house. There are tons of amenities in the house including games, kitchen tools, linens and paper goods. Our kids loved the amazing bunk room in the basement. The owners were great to work with and the house lives up to the pictures!

Beautiful property!

Pictures don’t do this property justice, it’s absolutely stunning and much bigger in person! I hosted an intimate women’s retreat and it was perfect. I would definitely book this place again and John and Joel were wonderful hosts! We got snowed in one day, and John came and helped us get our cars out. Thank you so much for the wonderful day!

Memorable home

We had a fantastic stay at this home. From the moment we arrived, we felt a sense of warmth and friendliness. The atmosphere was beautiful and inviting, making us instantly feel at home. The lake house theme was a wonderful touch, showcasing great creativity in the decor. The architecture of the house was truly fantastic. Every detail was well thought out, and the design was both aesthetically pleasing and functional. The layout of the home allowed for a seamless flow between rooms, creating a spacious and comfortable environment. One of the highlights for our family was the basement bunk beds. The kids had an absolute blast spending time in that area. It was a fun and cozy space for them to relax and play. Overall, this home was perfect for our long weekend getaway. It exceeded our expectations in terms of comfort, style, and amenities. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable vacation rental experience.

One of our favorite houses ever!

We have stayed at many homes over the years with my family of six. This time as we were leaving everyone decided this was one of our favorite houses ever. it’s comfortable it’s clean it’s got all the amenities and the owner was very easy to work with. To top it all off the mattresses are extremely comfortable I actually took the information and ordered one for my wife and I. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with my family.

Outstanding House on Candlewood Lake

Three fathers and four teenage sons stayed here for a long weekend of fishing on Candlewood Lake. This is certainly not a fishing cabin, but well worth the extra expense. The house is "as advertised," with no expense spared, great attention to detail, and a well-thought-out floor plan. The main floor/kitchen area was great for everyone to be together, but the house also offered plenty of space for personal time. The beds were super comfortable. The dock offered plenty of space for hanging out and swimming. We also enjoyed the spacious deck and the outdoor fireplace. Lastly, the hosts went above and beyond and were quick to address issues (VRBO system issues, not the house). Would definitely stay here again.
