Fabulous house on a quiet part of the Manitowish Chain

You can’t ask for more.. a beautiful home on Island Lake. Eagles as well as deer joined us as we enjoyed our 2nd stay in paradise. The kitchen and family room were very spacious and well stocked. Barb anticipated our every need and we feel very lucky that she shared her home with us. Thank you again!

Beautiful house on Island Lake

Barb, Thank you for allowing us to rent your beautiful home. I have been eyeing your house for over two years and it was better than I could have hoped. Island Lake is the best lake on the chain. In addition, your location on the north side of the lake was ideal. The welcome basket and little touches around the house were noticed and enjoyed. The organization and cleanliness of the home were very impressive. Again, Many thanks!

Stunning home!

Barb’s care for her home is evident throughout. The house was immaculate, and it had everything we needed and more. The lake is beautiful. It was the perfect break after a few long months. She was so easy to communicate with - responding almost immediately to questions. Pride of ownership is obvious here. We would return in a heartbeat.

Beautiful home and property

This was a beautiful home, every detail to covered..Barb did an amazing job welcoming us, down to a goodies basket upon arrival..A bottle of Moscato, and a touletry basket in each of the bathrooms.. We did alot of cooking and the kitchen was well equipped...Plenty of chairs for eatong and fire pit...My husband was very happy with the doc for his boat..Location was great being at the end of Island Lake, it did not get much boat traffic, so it kept pretty secure in its place..A sandy bottom at the pier for floating or swimming.. I cannot think of anything negative...Would certainly go back in a heartbeat...Thank you for renting your home for us to experience the beauty and tranquility of Manatawish Waters...
