Beautiful home on the lake! They have everything you need to enjoy a stay on the lake. I wish we had more time to spend enjoying all they have to offer. Very spacious and comfortable! It is very quiet and peaceful. The hosts were very responsive to all my questions and messages. I would 100% recommend staying here if in the area! Absolutely family friendly!

The lake house was very comfortable and adequate for 7 people. A few stipulations that I received after booking and payment was a surprise. It stated restrictions on number of vehicles and people allowed on the property at any one time. This did not affect us but it may some groups. The lake view is great. The upper deck was like sitting in a tree with birds! They were very close and really fun to watch. The walk to the lake could be hard for older adults. It a bit steep. We rented a pontoon boat from Jackson Lake Rentals for the weekend and it was a prefect addition to the weekend. The only draw back I experienced was with cooking pots and pans being large enough. The home is equipped with gravity feed drinking water which was very nice. This home also offers kurig and traditional coffee pots. Overall wonderful home and weekend

Response from VrboOwner on Apr 8, 2026
Thank you for the detailed review, Terri. We’ll certainly take a look at adding some larger pots and pans. As for the number of people on the property and cars, we do have a maximum number of cars listed under the policies section. Our apologies if you were caught off guard in any way. We try to be as up front as possible.

Great family vacation

The house had plenty of space and was the perfect location. It was convenient to local stores, easy to get to but also a great location on the lake. The available water boat float and kayaks were a huge plus and thoroughly enjoyed. However, some of the water toys were outdated and non-working. We would definitely book again!

We have stayed here twice now & both visits were amazing! The host is so warm, personable, responds quickly, & great to work with! The home is so unique & fits our needs well. The aesthetic of the house is nostalgic & the two living rooms were a lifesaver! Thank you again Johns family for opening up your beautiful home-we can’t wait until next time!

Absolutely perfect

This was our first VRBO booking and it exceeded our expectations. I’ve never stayed in any type of property that made me feel 100% at home from nearly the moment I walked in the door. The house is warm, cozy and inviting. I loved being able to gaze at the water while relaxing on the couch and having the water close was so convenient. The owners are incredibly responsive and a pleasure to work with. The kids were begging to book another trip back before we even left!
