Perfect for an extended family gathering. We had grandkids and parents enjoying the beautiful lake. Lots of fishing with pike and bluegill. Canoes and kayaks plus life jackets were in good shape and great to use. I highly recommend this for families who enjoy the outdoors.

The house was beautiful and clean. There were 10 of us and plenty of rooms and bathrooms to accommodate. John responded very quickly and even provided a highchair so we didnt have to drag one along. We had plenty to do to keep us busy right there at the house so we didn't venture. Would definitely recommend.

John was so friendly and kind! He even called to let us know he was in no rush to have us leave, so we could take more time on the lake. The house is gorgeous, and the property beautiful, the view with the lake and mountains was breathtaking. Would love to stay here again!

Stayed at this property to enjoy the lake and surrounding area. Everything we needed was perfect from the moment we arrived. Better than the listing, manager very accommodating providing extra equipment for our family to enjoy the water. We would definitely recommend this property and tell anyone looking, to just BOOK IT! You will not be disappointed. Hope to go back next year!

Family getaway.

Joshua and I took our daughters,their spouses, and grandchildren. It was a nice getaway for all of us. The fishing off the dock and the boats for the water made it fun for all of us. The house was nice and clean with all the accessories we needed. I highly recommend this place!

Perfect family relaxing!

Amazing inside and out! Plenty of dining locations (small kitchen table, large dining table, covered picnic table near grill and picnic table by water edge) thankful for window A/C units as it was warm at night. Water toys greatly used - kayaks, canoe and paddle boat. We had our own float devices and ladder made it easy to enter the lake. We didn’t go far - short walk to ice cream and short drive to pretty Auger Falls. Look no further for relaxing and comfortable place!

This home has a beautiful DIRECT view of the Lake! It was spacious and very clean! The owner tended to our every need including a refrigerator replacement!!!The number of bedrooms was sufficient for our party. Access to the lake via boats was plentiful. He even included firewood for us and propane gas for the gas grill! The home is located on a main road but also directly on the lake so the front bedrooms have to contend w a little road noise of vehicles passing through during the early morning hours but for the most part of the day the place is completely serene! Would definitely book again and is great for families or multiple guests! The fall foliage was just turning when we arrived and was pleasing to the eye! Book today and you won’t be disappointed!!!

This property was wonderful! John was very quick to respond and was so kind from booking until we left. We stayed for a wedding on Oak Mountain. It was about a 15 min drive. The house was so spacious and clean and was perfect for our 8 adults and 1 child. We all loved the upstairs loft, it was such a unique area. We cooked out and had breakfast every morning in the large kitchen and dining room. At night we hung out down by the water and then finished the evening all having family movie night! The living room was a perfect area for my parents and sisters, plus spouses to stretch out! It was wonderful to connect as a family and enjoy each others company. We all hope to come back to visit and to enjoy the house and property more!

Our 3 generation family thoroughly enjoyed our week's stay at Loon Watch on Lake Algonquin! The house was super clean, with many amenities. The kitchen was very well stocked. The beds were very comfortable. The house has plenty of room. Outdoors, we enjoyed the kayaks and the paddle boat. There was plenty of room to play lawn games. John was so easy to communicate with, if we had a question. We made family memories at this beautiful location in July 2026.
