Perfect Location, Great House. We loved sitting on the dock every night watching the sun set over the mountains after a long day of kayaking and fishing. Everything was quite, beautiful, and very relaxing.

Wonderful lakeside stay

Lovely lakefront location

Amazing location with a beautiful view. Great spot for fishing right off the dock. Very quiet, lots of birds to see as well. Communication was excellent and immediate. Also appreciated the recommendations- there are several excellent spots in the area for food/beer.

4 adults and two teens and the house was perfect. Absolutely beautiful lake view. Nice dock for fishing. Fire pit was nice in the evening. Parking is tight but we were able to work with the host to resolve that. Kitchen is equipped with everything you need for your stay. Clean, cozy...nothing fancy but a very, very comfortable home base for in our case riding at Lost Trails. If you stay at this home, absolutely go to dinner at Nurnburger Bierhaus it was absolutely fantastic (reservations suggested). We were too early in the season to really take advantage of the lake other than appreciating its beauty, but in summer this home is set up great to enjoy time on the water. Bring some extra pillows and sheets if people will be using the pull out couches. The home is a little smaller feeling inside than the photos seem as is often the case with vrbo, but it was plenty of space for our group of 6 to be very comfortable. 3 good sized televisions is a nice touch. Xbox in the basement works but bring your own controllers- the ones there have some issues. Overall a great cottage on an a very pretty lake that was clean and well equipped. Host was very responsive and helpful.

Cozy Gettaway

We had 4 adults 4 kids under 9 and the hot tub was the highlight of the kids stay. Even us adults got to have some peace in the hot tub once we got the kids watching a movie! Plenty of space amongst the levels of the house to not feel as though we were on top of eachother. The kids even played on the frozen lake in the snow!

Our family’s stay in July was highlighted by the proximity from the house to the lake, a new dock, a variety of outside and patio furniture, and great access for fishing; as well as a hot tub, air-conditioning, a modern kitchen, and 2 bathrooms, with 2 upstairs bedrooms, accommodating 4-6 people. Views from the upstairs porch, lower level porch and lakeside coast were beautiful and breathtaking with nature’s sounds! A quiet, finished basement was the perfect place to hang out, before AND after visiting the hot tub! (For a longer vacation like ours, we have suggested a washer/ dryer amenity, just for the convenience during our stay.) We did take many pictures, loved the outside spaces, were impressed by the hot tub, and also were enamored by the beautiful sunsets! Overall, we had a happy stay, made many great memories, and enjoyed renting this lovely lake house on Lake Henry. Thank you, Christianne!

A relaxing stay with a beautiful view

My family stayed at the lake house and had a wonderful time! Spent a lot of time fishing on the lake, enjoying the downstairs room with basketball and xbox, doing puzzles and playing games upstairs, and of course grilling and the hot tub. Sitting in the hot tub at night watching the stars was really special. Christianne answered all of our questions and responded to our requests really fast. We found the house in great condition and exactly matching the description. Would definitely stay there again. If there was a single downside, as mentioned in the listing, there are some ruts in the road outside the house that make it a little bit dicey if you're in a sedan. Other than that, it was a great weekend getaway.

Cozy & Charming

The house was exactly as advertised, and my family loved our visit. We fished from the dock, kayaked on the lake, hiked, read in the hammock, played pool, relaxed in the hot tub, and enjoyed evening card games and movie night. The kayaks and row boat were a huge hit, we were so thankful to enjoy them during unseasonably warm autumn weather! We didn’t utilize the fire pit (high fire risk/dry conditions during our visit), but the fire pit area was lovely. But for one dinner out we prepared all of our meals, and there were plenty of cooking and food prep supplies. I especially enjoyed the coffee provided. There were many thoughtful touches, such as shampoo and conditioner in the shower, throw blankets on the couches, and a dog bed for our Oreo. I would absolutely recommend a stay here - my 10 year old proclaimed it “the best house ever!” and is already asking when we can go back.

Clean, nice and noisy.

Very nice home and very clean. The yard and access to the lake were great. We had one problem which was taken care of immediately after one phone call. One thing that we couldn’t tell from the pictures is the close proximity to the neighbors. Our “quiet” 3 day vacation turned out to be anything but. Trees and brush were being cleared from the house 1 over from ours. Chain saws were blaring for 9 hours. We couldn’t hear each other talk. I understand that has nothing to do with the property but a heads up would have been nice, we could have rescheduled our days. The next day there were workers at the house next door. We could hear all their conversations. The irony of this is that there are noise sensors around the property so we would be quiet! There is no privacy at all in the back yard. Also the camera on the tree looking right into the living area was unnerving. The family really did enjoy the fishing from the dock and the kayaks. The lily pads were in bloom and beautiful. Our stay would have been really nice if not for the noise.
