Julie and Todd were excellent hosts. Place was very clean and comfortable. Talk about peaceful, what a place to relax. We saw plenty of bird activity, herons, eagles and turkeys. Took advantage of the amenities like golf cart, cornhole, horseshoes, pac-man and air hockey. Lake was shallow but that made it warm. Firepit and fountain enhanced the stay. Kayaks available for use. Lake was a great view and property is beautiful and well manicured.We had a wonderful stay..Thank You !

Beautiful lake property!

The home was incredibly clean, the host was a pleasure to work with and the overall property was gorgeous. Great lake-side access and overall views. We were only there for a brief two-night stay and wish we could have stayed longer.

Great lake house in the North Country!

We so appreciated staying in this lovely home It is far enough from the road so you don't hear any traffic. It was lovely place to kayak. The inside of the home was perfect- the kids downstairs by the game room and adults upstairs. JULIE IS A GREAT HOST

Amazing Rental

Julie’s lake home property is absolutely gorgeous and exceptionally clean. The many included amenities like kayaks, golf cart, ping pong , air hockey , and more were a great bonus. Communication was always quick and she was onsite to assist with check in and out. Portable AC unit in living room, fully stocked kitchen appliances / dining ware, and bathroom supplies. My son enjoyed fishing from the beach. Looking forward to future stays.

secluded beautiful lakehouse

We have stayed in a dozen or so rentals and this one is by far the cleanest and most secluded house so far.The lake view is beautiful. The house its self is well done and newly appointed. Bed was comfortable. Julie, the owner was so pleasant and attentive to detail, and she makes a killer zucchini bread .So if your looking for a quiet, beautiful,secluded, Lakefront property, this is the place

Perfect lake view location

We really enjoyed our stay and Julie was extremely welcoming, kind and responsive. Lots of relaxing, fishing and kayaking on or by the lake. We visited the hottest week of July and the floor AC unit wasn’t strong enough to cool off the upstairs bedroom. Julie offered us box fans and that was helpful

Great Stay

We were so comfortable at Todd and Julie's home. When we arrived, there was a fire already going and enough wood for the nights we stayed. On the table was home made banana bread with chocolate chips which was a nice treat. The house was extremely clean and had everything we needed. The blankets were so soft and cozy. There was also a variety of games to choose from that kept our family busy in the evening. We went there to see snow and there wasn't much, but there was enough to build a good size snowman and when we woke up on our final morning, there was a fresh blanket of snow which was a great treat. The property was large with lots of areas to explore. The views were spectacular. Would stay again.
