House was used for 4 guys on a golf trip. There was plenty of room for us. The house would be perfect for 4 couples or two families with a bunch of kids or teenagers. The house was very cleaned, plenty of towels, well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds. I would definitely rent it again.

This was our 3rd stay at this house. There is plenty of room to accommodate a large family. Our first 2 stays were with children and grandchildren. This stay was with my siblings and partners, eight senior citizens. While the weather wasn’t the best due to rain, there was still plenty to do in the house to keep everybody busy. The covered downstairs deck and hot tub are great, the large dining table and full kitchen were very handy for cooking and eating indoors. Andrew, the owner is very easy to communicate with. We were able to use the boat a few times and the fishing was fun. Hopefully we will be back next year.

From booking throughout our stay, everything was easy and pleasant. The host obliged with every request and went the extra mile whenever he could. We added a few things that we thought we would need for kitchen implements or our own comfort only to find that everything we needed was there! The location is wonderful close to the community house which had a number of nice amenities, right on the lake with a beautiful dock, beach access, and lots of paddle boards, kayaks, and canoes available for our use. I asked about a hammock. The host said they didn’t have one, but would look into it and there was one up when we got there. We were a multi age family group, and everyone had so many wonderful experiences. The lake is pristine and clean with lots of birds swimming or flying around so plenty of activity without intrusive noise. All in all a wonderful time in a little slice of paradise!
