  • We had 6 couples and 7 children under the age of 3 at the house for a long weekend this summer. There was plenty of room for everyone. The babies could nap undisturbed. We set up a kiddie pool on the back porch. The furnishings were very comfortable, the kitchens well-equipped. We could not have asked for a better deal! Thank you, Steve!

  • We had a family reunion over the 4th of July weekend at the Henhouse, and had a fabulous time! Over 30 people attended, ranging from one year old to those in their 60's, and there was plenty of space for everyone. 21 slept in the house, and the others were in hotels which were a convenient 5 to 15 minute drive. The kitchens are well equipped, and the layout convenient. The caretaker, Tina, made sure our every need was met. Thank you Steve, for being so accomodating! We highly recommend the Henhouse for a reunion or vacation. We would love to return next year!

  • I planned a weekend at The Henhouse for my parents and 2 brothers' families. We had a great time. The house/lake was beautiful. The kitchens were well furnished. Plenty of room for everyone and decorated elegantly but with comfort in mind. We are looking forward to planning another visit soon.

  • We have just returned from the HenHouse where we enjoyed a family reunion this past week. This home exceeded our expectations. The 2 lofts were perfect for the cousins..offering plenty of games,books, movies, the pool table and 2 widescreen televisions to play video games etc. The two kitchens were well supplied and perfect for our teens/adults. The home was spacious and offered a perfect view and access to the lake. We look forward to returning next summer! Thanks again to Tina the concierge who made sure our needs were met! Debbie Bonadies

  • We had an AMAZING time at this incredible house while we were there at the end of June. There were four couples, each of us with two children. Altogether, eight kids between the ages of 2-6 years of age but there was plenty of room for them to spread out and play. They also loved sleeping together in the loft, while the adults played pool and enjoyed themselves in the other loft without disturbing the sleeping children. The two kitchens were wonderful and the long wrap around veranda made for lots of shaded places to play even on a hot summer day. It was a long drive for us (14+ hours) but well worth it to meet up with our American friends. We will definitely be coming back and staying even longer the next time! We have been raving about this place to friends and family! Thank you as well to Tina, the caretaker. She was friendly and made sure that we had everything we needed.

  • There were eight of us, four couples, and we sure enjoyed our weekend at the Henhouse during the weekend of February 9, 10, and 11. The house of warm and comfortable. We enjoyed cooking in the main kitchen and sitting at the huge dining room table. This room looks out over the lake with ducks swimming by and is so peaceful. What a fun filled and relaxing weekend. We hope to return soon. We want to say thank you to the lady who looks after the property. She was right on hand to check on us and to offer her help. We recommend the Henhouse as a delightful place to stay.

  • This house is truly amazing, you will not believe the space you have. We spent a night to determine if it would accomodate us for a family reunion of about 25 people. We came away convinced this house will be perfect. The porch is wonderful and you are truly a stone's throw from the lake. The rooms are very spacious and the entire house is very nicely furnished. We are looking forward to many trips to this property.
