A property that had it all. Amenities for onsite entertainment, gorgeous lake views, minimal light pollution for stargazing and more than enough space for 8 guys to spending their weekend together for their annual golf trip. Close to shopping (groceries or outlet mall), solid food options and most importantly for us, some very quality golf. Whatever your stay, you won’t be disappointed with this location to be your home away from home.

Large house with plenty of room for our group of 12. The kids really enjoyed the swim platform and the beach was nice to sit out on and even had some shade from the Willow tree. The hosts provided just about everything we could have needed during our stay from kitchen utensils to a speaker to take out by the lake! Private road was nice for riding bikes too. The hill to the water is pretty steep and would be hard for anyone with mobility issues to access. Will definitely consider returning!!

Summer cousin trip

The house was beautiful! More than enough room for 13 of us and never felt on top of each other. House had almost everything you could need. Host was responsive. Water and beach was a little mucky and there were lots of geese and geese poop but not much you can control with that. Would definitely stay again!

Adorable home with everything you need!

We had an amazing time at this lakehouse with our family group of 15! (We had 8 adults and 7 kiddos ages 4mo-10yrs!) The home was clean, spacious, and beautifully set up, looked just like the pictures — We loved our cozy mornings in the living room and game nights around the large dining table. The kitchen was well-stocked, making meal prep for a big group easy and enjoyable.The lake access was a dream — we needed the zero entry with the toddlers in our group! We will remember peaceful mornings by the water and fun afternoons with the kids swimming, kayaking, and paddle boarding. The kids loved catching minnows on the dock, too! Plenty of space inside and out for everyone to spread out and relax.We made so many great memories— Highly recommend for any family looking to unwind & have fun!

Perfect spot!

We do a family girls trip every fall and typically stay at one of our homes and decided to give a rental property a go this year and this was definitely a great pick! Ample amount of space and beds, comfortable, clean, and the esthetics of the home inside and out were so cool! A bonus it is on a lake. I am certain in the warmer weather that it is great for water fun. The hosts were professional and great to work with. Would definitely recommend and stay here again!

Lake House Summer 2024

Outstanding! Our kids and grandkids had the best time. My favorite part was my kids and grand children rolling down the hill! Over and over. It was so much fun. Had lots of fun in the water with all the toys. My 7 year old grandson fished for the first time and caught several blue gills! The house was perfect for all age groups. Thank you for having us and I highly recommend!

Family Vacay

We had a wonderful family vacation at this beautiful home on Lake George. We had more than enough space for our group of seven adults and one toddler. The beds were comfortable. We loved the retro decor. The beach area was great for adults and kids. We rented a pontoon and had a great time on this nice clean lake - we especially loved the sand bar in the middle. We enjoyed the kayaks, paddle board and fire pit also. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked with all the essentials. Plentiful bath, kitchen and beach towels. Check in and out was easy and the host was very responsive to all our questions. Overall we would definitely recommend this rental and we would definitely stay here again.

Christmas With The Kids

With a growing family, we decided to try something new this year and have Christmas with the kids (all grown and have started their own families) at a rental property. We were looking for very specific things to accommodate everyone. These items were the number of rooms so everyone could have their own space, a central area where we could all hang out together comfortably, enough bathrooms, sledding availability, a large kitchen with supplies (pots and pans, utensils, etc. ) to cook family meals and some flexibility with check in and check out times. This home had EVERYTHING we were looking for and Jennifer was super easy to communicate with and very open to working with us on the check in and out times!! Although we didn't end up having snow (it actually rained most of the time :) ) they supplied sleds and the sledding was right outside the back door. Being on the water and having the large windows made the home such a cozy, warm place to stay. A couple of our kids are now thinking about renting it out for an annual fishing trip they have. I would 100% recommend renting this home! It was perfect for us and I bet it will be for you too!

My first impression of the house wasn’t great. We walked in to flies everywhere, both dead and alive. (I didn’t mention the flies to the homeowner bc I understand that they could have died after cleaner was there.) The house was extremely hot when we arrived as the temp was set to 78. It did not cool off until the next morning, but we had to close the blinds in the afternoon to keep it cool. The 3 outside trashes were all overflowing with trash. (The back trash we left alone. I tried to empty it into a bag and it was too heavy.) The fridge had some dirt in it as well. The other disappointing piece was that the room with the foosball table and the room with the twin beds did not have a/c. Aside from those initial first reactions, the home grew on our group. We enjoyed the two living areas, the 3 bathrooms, and the open kitchen. The lake was quiet over all and swimmable. Our group enjoyed the paddle-board and the kayaks. The kids spent a large amount of time on the floating dock. If you are looking to catch fish, there are lots of bass, but no pike. We were able to dock our boat and it is an excellent lake for tubing, skiing, or knee boarding. We ventured out for ice cream and went to two scoops and holy grounds. Highly recommend. Their portions are huge!Our time here was relaxing and we all had a great time.

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Jennifer and my family purchased this vacation home with some friends of ours. We love that the size of the home allows us to spend quality time vacationing with our groups of friends and family. I love renting homes for vacation from VRBO myself, so I've tried to incorporate all the "little things" that I have learned to appreciate from other's vacation rentals. I hope you consider spending your vacation time here too!
