Wonderful location! Access to the lake is just right out the back door! The house is beautiful and worked so well for our four grandkids! Kayaking, swimming, and playing lots of games. They asked if they could come back every year!

We had the perfect weekend getaway relaxing and celebrating our daughter’s birthday. The house and property are beautiful and have everything you need to feel right at home. Our host Nancy was quick to communicate with me was kind and helpful. We look forward to more relaxing getaways at this perfect lakefront gem.

This house was exactly what we needed. The property was even more beautiful in person. My kids loved swimming from the dock and taking the canoe around the point to see the camp from which they’d just come. Perfect place to spend a few blissful summer days. The hosts were well prepared and provided excellent instructions. Would stay again!

Nothing beats the view from any window you look out! Beautiful maintained property just steps from the water. The house and property are very clean and the kitchen is stocked with anything you might need. The host is very responsive to any questions or concerns. We’ll be back, we still need to find the seventh fish.

This house played a major part in celebrating all three of our kids high school graduations (2012, 2024, 2026)! The space, the host, the lake access…all played a role in making all three celebrations special with their friends!

This was the perfect spot for a quiet relaxing weekend with a couple of friends. The location on the lake was so beautiful and peaceful. The house was very comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals easily. The pictures online were very accurate and we enjoyed being able to sit under the ceiling fans on the back porch for much of the day. Also, being able to easily enter and exit the lake using the small beach area was a nice feature. The only thing we ran into was an issue with spider webs. They covered much of the front of the house and some had made their way inside which meant we were knocking down spider webs all weekend. Not a huge issue, but a bit of a hassle. Other than that, the house was very clean and well maintained!

The Talbots lake house is always a family favorite! It’s a well appointed vacation rental with everything you need to cook up a meal inside or grill outdoors. The no wake zone cove provides a safe and peaceful lakefront for the littles to seniors and everyone in between. The driveway is steep but you can carefully back down with no problem. We shall return!

Thank you, Gail! We love that the house works for your whole crew, that quiet cove really is the best part. And yes, the driveway is our unofficial guest screening program: if you can back down it, you're our kind of people. We'll be ready for your return! — Richard & Nancy

As always we had a fantastic trip to the lake! The kitchen is stocked with everything you need to prepare meals inside or outside at the two available grills. The house and property are very clean, comfortable and well maintained. The Talbots are excellent hosts and are very communicative. We are repeat visitors for over 10 years and have already booked our next trip! You have a dickens of a time finding the seventh fish (we never did).

Thank you for the kind review — and our condolences on the seventh bass. He's aware you looked. He asked us to pass along that he hasn't moved, isn't planning to, and will be in the exact same spot when you come back next time. He has nothing but time. See you on your next trip, detectives.

Great stay! The house was in a great location on the lake. The view was beautiful. To say the home was well stocked is an understatement. It had everything we needed and more! Communication with host was great as well. We would def stay here again.

Thank you, Yvonne! We figure nobody ever drives to the lake just to turn around and make a few supply runs, So we try to make sure you never have to. Glad you enjoyed the stay and the view — welcome back anytime! — Richard & Nancy

We spent Mother’s Day weekend here and had a wonderful time. My husband loved that he could fish off the dock. We saw a fox and a deer in the yard so that was neat. We would recommend this location for any fishing enthusiasts! Nancy was great at communicating with us!
