We loved this VRBO and our generous hosts Deb and Dave. Quick weekend fishing trip was great and staying in this super clean, super nice, cabin overlooking the lake was the topper. I would highly recommend this property and I hope we can stay here again. Trish and Steve
The property was perfect for a lake visit. The deck overlooks the lake and is shaded morning and evening. Perfect to enjoy coffee early morning. Everything was spotless. We were not familiar with Harlan Dam and we loved that the property was very close to our camper families. It was a quick trip to Methodist Cove. Conveniently located between Republican City and Alma and a very short drive to North Shore Marina.
What a wonderful get away!! Peaceful surroundings. Cabin was very nice and clean. Loved sitting on the deck looking out at the lake. Watched an eagle swoop down and get a fish out of the water and a doe walk the property line and watch us the whole way. Would recommend this cabin for sure. We will be return visitors. Dave and Deb were exceptional hosts!!!
This home is the cleanest we’ve ever stayed in and is niclely stocked. The hosts were very tentative and prompt in communicating with us. We were lucky to be able to meet them in person and they are the nicest people! Location is quiet with a lake view from the back deck and is just a short walk to the water. Couldn’t ask for more! Will definitely stay here again!
What a charming and comfortable cabin by the lake! Hosts Deb and Dave gave us a warm welcome by having twinkle lights aglow, a personal welcome note, and a gift card to a local shop. They were very quick to respond when a fuse needed flipping, and very pleasant to chat with. We enjoyed grilling burgers, playing cards and relaxing on the beautiful deck. We watched water fowl and fish playing in the water. The stars at night were an extrabonus. All these things together made our stay restful and relaxing. Such a lovely peaceful place!
Can’t say enough about our nice stay at this property. The cleanliness was top notch (I’m a stickler about that). The cabin is cozy but roomy enough and has everything you’ll need. The beds were comfortable, too. Close access to the lake and activities with friends who have cabins by the North Shore Marina. Great walking trail on a quiet lane. Perfect for setting outside watching the lake. Will definitely be booking again!! Thanks for the wonderful hospitality!!
The Host was very courteous and always provided responses with helpful info to my emails such as boat ramp location, etc. Provided maps and directions to Cabin and Marina. The Host assisted us with boat parking which was an issue. The property was very clean. There was a nice deck to enjoy a view of the lake. The kitchen has all appliances and fully stocked. (no dishwaser). Made our trip very enjoyable. Would definitely stay there again. Thank you!
