Our stay at this lake house was fantastic! The home was spotless, well-stocked, and perfectly located right on the water. We loved the peaceful mornings on the patio by the fire, the cozy living spaces where we could hang out, play games, watch movies, and all the thoughtful touches throughout the house. The host communicated clearly and made the whole process so easy. Highly recommend!

Most needed

We flew in our daughters future in laws from California. It was their first time flying and their first trip out of state. Since it was our first time meeting them we thought it would great to get a place where there was everything to do without having to leave the house. This place was everything we expected and more. Unfortunately, I was sick for a few days but what better place to be a beautiful home with a gorgeous view.

Our family just needed together-time and this was the most perfect place for us! There was more than enough space. We thoroughly enjoyed the outside kitchen and lounge area. The hot tub was very relaxing with awesome views! Every night was enjoyed in the very comfortable theater as well as many a game of pool and table tennis! Greg,the properties manager, was very responsive and even met us and helped us unload all our bags! We even enjoyed paddle boarding! We will definitely be planning another stay! Like I said, it was just perfect! Erin's hospitality and communication is top notch! We have never had a better stay! It is even better than the photos on their site!! Definitely worth it!

Truly a luxury house

Celebrated my husband's 90th birthday with family and a friend. Everyone enjoyed the movie room with the very comfortable recliners and then they moved to the ping pong table and pool table. I called and the hot tub was remotely turned on and used for a few minutes by grandchildren (30-40 year olds) We watched football on one of the TV's (there are TVs everywhere). Excellent house for December weather and great for fun on lake.

Amazing

Terrific property. Essentially no negatives at all during our stay. Huge house with plenty of space for our large family. Loved the pool. Kids caught a number of bream fishing from the shade of the boathouse. We saw >10 deer near the property. I rented jet skis and a ski boat from a local vendor, which added to the fun. Missy was our contact and did a great job keeping us informed and answering questions.
