Vacation at the Lake house

This house was amazing. It’s across from a lake and surrounded by beautiful trees. My grandchildren enjoyed catching frogs and salamanders every morning and evening. Then releasing them and watching them scurry off. We hiked each day and used the relaxing hot tub each night. Micheal was easy to communicate with and even came to repair a minor leak within an hour of the request. I would stay here again for sure.

Perfect Lake House

The pictures show the house perfectly. Everything in working order. Kitchen stocked with everything we needed. The lake is just a short walk across the street. There is a dock and plenty of boats to enjoy. Fishing is good, off shore or out on the pond. The pool table, hot tub, television and card games in the closet kept us busy on a rainy day. White Haven is close and has a decent market as well as a good diner. Highly suggest The Garlic Knot in nearby Freeland for great food (especially pizza and wings). Owners were very attentive and kind. We definitely recommend! Thanks for letting us enjoy your Lake Home!

Well maintained, cozy, and relaxing!

We spent a week here and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home was very clean and well kept. Our week was cold and rainy so we spent considerable time at the house and it turned out to be a very relaxing week in this cozy home. We made good use of the hot tub in the screened porch which was hot and refreshing. Gas grill was very clean and we used it several times. Although we were completely satisfied with our stay, my suggestions for improvements would be more towels. We used the bath towels for hand towels in the bathrooms and also for doing dishes. We found no sponges or scrubbies for cleaning pans. We brought extra towels for the hot tub and were glad we did. Overall a great experience and the owners were very informative on area attractions.
Response from VrboOwner on Mar 6, 2020
Thank you for your review perhaps you missed all the dish towels in the kitchen drawer. Anything needed during your stay would be made available to make your stay a pleasurable one, like providing you a crock pot. As we are only a short drive away from the home we will do anything reasonable to make your stay pleasant and memorable. All guests will be provided our quick attention to address any and all issues. Please come again to enjoy our beautiful home.

Perfect Getaway

Andrea and Ray were very professional and comprehensive. Certainly a pleasure to work with! Due to an emergency at home our trip was cut short but I would not hesitate to stay here again or recommend it to friends! The personal touches throughout the house were very warming and inviting - we felt right at home immediately. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for opening up your beautiful home to us! We had such a wonderful time!

Relaxing and cozy

The house was so nice and cozy that we were immediately relaxed and comfortable. It was easy to find everything we would need for the time we were there. The lake was a great way to spend the day. Lots of fish and a nice paddleboat trip. Ending the day in the hot tub was a bonus! Thanks Ray and Andrea for the use of your home.

Perfect Getaway Cabin!

We just got home from our stay at this cabin - NONE of us wanted to leave!! Check in/out is easy and exactly as directed. Communication was easy and fast with owners. Property is exactly as listed, however, the peace & loveliness of it isn't quite captured! We spent our mornings hiking nearby taking in the many waterfall views. Then we'd come home for lunch and spend the afternoon down at the lake. We grilled out for supper and used the fire pit (not shown in the pics) for evening S'mores and star gazing. We also hopped in the hot tub a few times and had our own pool tournament! It really was an incredible few days of fun, fellowship, relaxing and laughter. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful place with us! I sure hope we can return some day!!

Friends weekend

Had a great weekend seeing a bunch of friends, spending time sitting on the porch, playing pool, and going in the boats! The house had nearly everything needed, there were a few odds and ends we did not expect to be missing (there were no dish sponges, and only 2 rolls of toilet paper) but there is a store very close so we could pick up anything else we needed. We saw a deer when we first got there, it was a great omen!

Cute cottage

This was an affordable cottage with plenty of amenities, comforts, and added luxuries. It is in close proximity to Hickory Run State Park where we spent most of our time. The hosts provided timely responses to our questions and provided thorough procedure outlines leading up to our arrival. My kids enjoyed the pedal boats and the hot tub.

Cozy cottage

Loved this property! I went with my boyfriend for a couple's getaway. We had a wonderful time enjoying the hot tub, cooking, and relaxing. We had one issue with getting the hot tub up to temperature, but the owner was quick to help when we contacted him and it was resolved right away. The kitchen didn't have as many things as we needed (baking sheet wasn't clean, pots had loose handles, no measuring spoons), but there's a grocery store nearby that you can grab these things easily. Since there were only 2 of us, we stayed in 1 bedroom. The other 2 bedrooms didn't have proper window curtains for privacy (could see straight into the neighbors windows), so we avoided those rooms. Overall, very nice property and would stay here again.

We will return

Overall this property was lovely it had a lot of added extras that were left for your comfort and convenience such as a small first aid kit and random mini bottles of medication really came in handy for us. it had great throw blankets for the cozy atmosphere the only downsides the hot water tank only does one shower at a time with 20 minute intervals in between and the TVs in the bedroom are small and don’t really workThe beds were also twin size not queen making it hard for large a couple to sleep together. And the spiral staircase leading to the second floor as beautiful as it is was not functional for my very large luggage so that stay downstairs and We slept upstairs. Handy tip the laundry room doubles as a place to leave this lady large luggage. Don’t let any of this take away from how beautiful the house is and how well kept everything was it was a lovely stay and we will return I’m just trying to let people know in advance what to expect

Great Week Away

Great place to stay. Very happy how we found the place which was very clean. We thought it was a very quite and quaint place. The lake was great across the street down a small path. My husband, daughter, and nephew fished everyday and caught Bass, Perch, and Catfish. I would say they probably caught at least 20 a day which was a huge plus. Hot tub and pool table was awesome as well especially for rainy days or just to wind down and night. Very quick responses and great communication between us and the owners from the start of booking this house all the way up until we left. We would definitely stay at this house again in the future.

If you cannot sleep under the sound of rain or the sounds of cicadas, take earplugs with you) Otherwise, a good rest is guaranteed! Very convenient location and cozy house, which has everything you need for a warm family vacation!

Amazing

This is a beautiful property very quaintly located across the street from a lake. Boats and a kayak supplied and were in great working order. The house is beautiful and clean. Had a great time lounging on the decks and in the hot tub. Owner is gracious and courteous. Met us at check in to show us around the house. You will not be disappointed at all with this property. We hope to be able to rent it again next year.
