The location was perfect. Very quiet and nice to see the sunrise over the lake. It was too cold for us to enjoy the lake in Nov., but it looks like a fun place to come back to in the summer. Beds were very comfortable.

This was the perfect house for a long weekend getaway! It had everything we needed & more. WiFi was slow but in the midst of a summer excursion or an ideal weathered day to have a bonfire it wouldn’t have mattered with all the outdoor activities that could be planned. I would totally rent this again, even knowing I live just 30 minutes away. This was my “sweet escape” from the hustle & bustle of life.

Lovely place for the weekend

Such a beautiful spot and house. It was perfect for our family of four and our dog. The hosts were gracious, left us gifts and it was fully stocked of everything you would need. We would definitely go back.

The Perfect Stay

The home is perfectly appointed and Diane has put a lot of thought into making your stay special. The view of the snow covered lake was beautiful. I can only imagine how wonderful it would be in the summer.

Beautiful, Cozy Lakeside Guest House

This cozy little lake house is very new and beautiful. One thing to be aware of is that the owners live in the house right beside it in the same yard but they are very nice people. We only met Diane but from what I read in the guest book other families met her husband also and had nothing but good things to say about him and Diane. It came in handy that the owner was so close by when we first arrived because we were having trouble connecting the TV's to the wifi but she came right over and helped figure out the issue and solved it and she also was so nice to bring over an Xbox and a big smart TV for my teenage son to play games on. She really goes out of her way to make sure her guests are happy and have everything they need! They even left snacks and a bottle of wine and birthday candles for us because it was my husband's 40th birthday. We had a great time. They provide multiple kayaks, canoes, paddleboards and a paddleboat, games, and I read in the book they also give people rides on their pontoon boat occasionally to go swimming or tubing or just enjoy the ride. If you want privacy, you will have privacy. If you want to socialize, they are nice people and I would love to go back again next year when it's warmer. The dock and lake are amazing! Definitely recommend staying in this lake house for any occasion! Thank you Diane, for everything!
