We had an absolutely wonderful stay during Thanksgiving break with our family this year. My husbands parents and sister joined us last minute, we notified the management company and there was no problem adding on a few extra guests to our stay. Wonderful view, excellent hot-tub and amazing kitchen stocked with quality cooking equipment. Can't wait to stay next again next year.
The home was very well equipped, clean, and comfortable for our family of 5. Although we didn't get to enjoy the area as much as we had hoped due to the wildfire smoke during our stay, we did get to appreciate the local wildlife including many deer, eagles, rabbits, bats, and more. A wonderful experience overall, and we would be happy to stay again in the future.

We, my husband and I, along with our 2 grown children, grandchild and friend came to Sagle for a family wedding. It could not have been more perfect. The home was warm, comfy and fully stocked with every cooking utensil one could imagine. The beds and pillows were so very comfortable. Thank you for a wonderful trip.

Thank you for this 5-star review Robin! It was so nice to host you and your family for this holiday weekend. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and you are welcome back anytime. -Daugherty Management
The house was clean and well stocked. We absolutely loved sitting on the porch looking out at the lake. It’s a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet. We would highly recommend staying there. The only issue we had was the master bedroom does not have blinds and the sun rise was at 4:30am!! Kinda an issue if you wanted to sleep in on vacation. :)

Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so glad you loved the unbeatable views and found the home clean and well-stocked. Relaxing on the porch while taking in the lake sounds like the perfect getaway! We appreciate your feedback about the master bedroom blinds and will take it into consideration. We'd love to host you again for another peaceful retreat!

This place is so relaxing, we recommend it to anyone that is looking for a peaceful retreat. The view from the deck was amazing, sweeping 180 degree views of the lake and mountains. Deer were grazing several days in the yard. We did go at an off season time, so I imagine it gets crowded at peak season and the road to get there is quite narrow. We had a few hiccups at first, such as no laundry soap (so check and make sure you have it), the hot tub was not ready, but it was all remedied. The property management company was the best we have ever encountered and we use a lot of VRBO. They responded quickly and went over and above to help. I accidentally forgot something and they mailed it to me. I can't say enough great things about them!

Beautiful home, beautiful view, all the things necessary for a great trip! Wild turkeys, deer, bald eagles came to visit each day. Had a great time, definitely look this place up if we’re in town again. Might be time to replace mattress in smaller guest room.

We had a very good time. The house was well equipped. We had a bit of trouble understanding the baseboard heaters, but other than that we were happy to be there.

Thank you Ed for the 5 star review! We are so glad to hear that you and your family enjoyed the home. We hope to host you again! Best regards, Daugherty Management
I tried multiple times to get a resolution and any attempt I made was not followed through with on their end. Fake nail visible under table and broken light above bed. Not all jets working in hot tub but I didn't complain until the main reason I rented property I was told was not available and no resolve to help with their error. Wanted to love this property but customer service is huge in a business like this and they completely dropped the ball. If they had better customer service and followed through would of been a better experience.
This property is wonderful. The owners and property managers must have made a list of items needed in most family scenarios and then stocked the home for fun and comfort. We loved it and the local ski resort is now our new favorite!
