A fun little getaway
I enjoyed my stay on the property. We had fun fishing. But I really enjoyed the attention to detail that the property had. Examples of this would be the decorations like the walleye fishing wall. I also found everything to be nice and clean. I would definitely come back to this property again.

Terrific property and amazing host!
I can't say enough about Ambre (pronounced am-ber) as a host. She was responsive to all our needs...in fact she exceeded all expectations. In addition, she was very friendly and interested in our experience in her property, while always respecting our privacy. The property was very comfortable, and perfect for us being very close to the many lakefront birding sites.We don't fish, but it appears that this property would be terrific for those who do. Thank you, Ambre! We look forward to coming back to The Glass Eye.
