En unik privat ø-oplevelse i Midtvesten

Thank you for the kind review. We take pride in our piece of heaven and would love to have you back anytime. Take care!

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that the condition of the home did not meet your expectations. The insects observed were wood roaches, which are common in heavily wooded and waterfront environments and are different from household-infesting cockroaches. The property had been professionally treated prior to your arrival, and when you contacted us, we immediately offered to have our cleaning professional return to vacuum and re-clean the home. That offer was declined, as the decision had already been made to seek alternative lodging - without giving us the opportunity to rectify the problem. The home is professionally cleaned between guests, regularly maintained, and receives ongoing pest-control treatments. While we understand your concern, the presence of some insects is an unavoidable reality of a private island property surrounded by water, trees, and natural habitat. You were provided with early check-in, access to a private pontoon boat for two days, and full use of the property's amenities. Comparable boat rentals in the area typically cost between $400 and $800 per day alone. In addition, the rental includes exclusive access to a private 4-acre island, a swim beach, swim platform, kayaks, and the surrounding outdoor recreational areas. We value all guest feedback and remain committed to providing a unique and enjoyable island experience while continually improving the property for future visitors.

Thank you! We hope we've kept the history alive while also providing modern comfort.

Thank you! We think it is pretty relaxing, too. Have a great year!

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback! We enjoyed having you and hope to have you back next summer!

Thank you! We hope you and your family had a chance to relax and reconnect. The porch is one our favorite places, too. Please tell others about us and come back when you can!

Thank you so much for the kind review. We are so glad you picked us and had a great time. We strive to make our guests feel comfortable at our home. Hopefully you made many happy memories. Take care~

Thank you! We try to have everything a guest could need to truly experience the lake and island. It is a great place for families and get togethers with lots of space, games and amenities. Take care!

Thank you for letting us know about your adventures. The treasure hunt is a great idea! Take care, we hope to have you back.

Thank you for the kind review! We, too, love the relaxed private feeling of the island. We'd love to have you back!

Thank you so much! Please stay with us again!

Thank you so much for the kind review. There are so many things to do and so many places to make memories. We are glad that you took advantage of everything the island has to offer -- sorry about the bees and poison ivy! We hope to have you back someday!

Thank you so much for your kind review. We love the house and try to keep it fun and simple for our guests. We love to cook, so we have a great kitchen, and we've taken into account items other guests have asked for and added them - more seating on the deck, a crockpot, blender/food processor, etc. We believe it is the perfect place to get away, and although the internet isn't great, it is a stone house on an island and it's the best we can get currently. It's kind of nice to unplug a bit :) Take care, we hope to have you back!

Thank you for the kind review and tips. The 4+ acre island has been wild for a very long time and taming it has been an uphill battle. We have some fun plans to create a walking path around the island, a fun beach area, and even an anchored platform for swimming and relaxing. As the island has been around since the 1850's, many people have come to enjoy swimming and fishing around its beautiful, untamed edges. We do not want to take that from them, yet we want to create a unique, private experience for our guests. It is a work in progress ;) We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and hope you come back to enjoy the island in the future!

Thank you so much for the kind review, for loving our island and for treating our home with such care. We appreciate you and can't wait to have you back!
