The house was perfect from the fenced in yard to the cleanliness to everything you would ever need being supplied. The homeowner was extremely responsive and always available to talk from recommendations on where to eat or where to launch your boat. I’ve never had such an easy, fun vacation thanks to Deborah!!! Highly highly highly recommend her home to anyone.

The house is great and the location is perfect. The back yard is completely fenced in which is perfect for pets, although our dog is old and can hardly maneuver the stairs. It has a large back yard and deck. The kitchen is fully stocked so, you shouldn't need to bring anything (no dishwasher though). The view from the living room is beautiful with wall-to-wall windows. They could use more lighting in the back.

Great place to stay!

I stayed here visiting family in Fox Lake and this is a wonderful place to stay. There are a lot of things to do right on the back yard! But, if you feel like staying in, there are plenty of TV’s available and o appreciate that!

Peaceful and Quiet Stay

The house was impeccably clean, the kitchen well stocked equipment-wise with even some spices and other extras . The canal view that expanded to the larger lake was lovely. All the amenities provide for a lovely getaway .

Weekend getaway

Our second time staying at this beautiful lakeside home and we had such a wonderful time.We bbq, fished, enjoyed the beautiful view and at night sat around talking enjoying the firepit. The home is clean and stocked with essentials, the owner responds in a timely matter and the neighbors are so very friendly. We will definitely be staying here again.

Best yet

We rent from VRBO at least twice a yearthis by far the best rental we’ve had in quite a while. The house clean and spacious, beds were comfortable. The view from the lake was great. The neighbors are great. It wasn’t a negative thing I could say about it we had a blast. We will be returning that’s for sure.

Best vacation

This mini vacation was amazing! The host Deborah was very friendly and responded in a reasonable time when I had questions. The house looked exactly as it did in the pictures, and was stocked greatly with supplies. The yard was huge and beautiful, along with the deck with the beautiful view of the deck. We were even able to dock our pontoon there for the time we were there. All my friends and family that came to visit and celebrate my birthday even complimented the house. Very well kept and I definitely would book again!!

Great Home for a Getaway!

We had a wonderful stay at this charming lake home! My husband and I chose here for our yearly June fishing trip and we chose well! The house is very spacious, clean and has all the essentials we needed. We used the barbeque nightly for our dinners, which worked out great! We spent majority of our time on the dock fishing- in which we were very successful! We caught catfish, bluegill and bass- some were very large in size! (They are still in the lake, we didn't keep them!) It was enjoyable to see the constant parade of boats floating by, too. I would definitely recommend this home to anyone to stay at, and I'd love to stay here again next year! It's a truly great escape!

"Stress Annihilation"

Most of all, we loved the tranquility, and the view was a major reason for the tranquility. Looking across the lake, all the way from left to right, all we could see was peace. Furthermore, all three nights, we saw beautiful sunsets over the water. We loved the wildlife, including herons, ducks, geese (there were two mother geese, each followed by several very young goslings), and the occasional splashing fish. The boaters were all careful to avoid noise and wakes. The bed was very comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed to do our own cooking. We even cooked steaks on the charcoal grill one night. To fully explain the title that I gave to this review, on our first full day at the property, we canceled our plan to explore the region (e.g., visit the Volo museum, do some antique shopping, and such activities). Instead, we chose to stay. We sat in the front room enjoying the view, reading, watching the fishing boats, and listening to the birds. There was no way that stress could penetrate the bliss. Would we book another stay at this VRBO? Put it thus way: we are already looking into our Fall schedule. Would we recommed this VRBO to others? I think this review just did that.

Our experience was top notch...from the cleanliness to the lake view to the comfortability of the sleeping arrangements. We were highly impressed with all the amenities (kitchen and bathroom items) that came with the home. Definitely would get this VRBO again.
