Stay was fantastic, had one issue with water pressure and the owner showed up in 15 minutes to fix it. Our family has stayed here for the past 3 years and love it. Thanks John for letting us use your vacation home for our family to get together each year.

This house is perfect for families to gather! Lots of sleeping options and plenty of open gathering space on the bottom and main floors. The location on the lake is great for boating, kayaking, fishing and swimming, nice deep water right off the dock. Also, super close to shopping and a mini golf course too. We hope to return next year!

Glorious time….

This place was everything that we needed and expected for this weekend. We felt safe and comfortable as we retreated with ABBA. We had plenty of space to fellowship and enjoy each others company. Thanks again for allowing us to use your home to have our retreat.

This property has a lot going for it — it’s very spacious, with a comfortable layout that could easily accommodate a group or multiple families. Unfortunately, our stay was impacted by several cleanliness and upkeep issues that we feel are important to share.When we arrived, it was clear the home had not been thoroughly cleaned before our visit. We noticed cobwebs in multiple areas, dusty and dirty surfaces, and a general lack of freshness inside. The bathrooms also had slow-draining sinks and showers, which made daily use less convenient. While none of these issues were catastrophic, they did add up and made the home feel less cared for than we had hoped.The yard was in need of regular maintenance. Overgrown spots and general neglect took away from what could have been a beautiful outdoor area. It’s easy to imagine how lovely it would be with some trimming, landscaping, and consistent care.We chose this property because of its size and outdoor space, and both of those features really do have great potential. With a bit more attention to deep cleaning, routine maintenance, and yard work, this could be a fantastic rental that guests would look forward to returning to. We hope the owner considers this feedback.The pro’s were large layout, large pantry, and the host is very responsive to any communication. The rockers on the porch are also lovely and relaxing.
