Such a relaxing get away! Lake views! Easy access to swimming and shore fishing. Wonderful location. Pet and children friendly. Hosts extremely accommodating and very responsive (the few times we needed to ask a question). Close enough to a store if needed but feels private and secluded! We definitely enjoyed our stay!

Private getaway right on the border.

The house was a little hard to find, about 10' from the Canadian border. It's a rambling, large house with a lot of room to get together or get away from each other. It was very clean, and the kitchen was very well-appointed. Lots of dishes, pots and pans, etc. And two fridges (which came in very handy). We spent most of our time outside in the back yard. Host was exceptionally responsive!

Hey! Robert’s house was a fun place to stay. The house is huge, decorations are really funky and cool, and the lakefront is really beautiful. It’s a cool part of the lake and good for boating. Plenty of space to comfortably sleep 12. We had a blast and it’s a great value. Would book again.
