Amazing vacation

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. I would recommend this property to anyone wanting a 5 star stay. The host responses to any questions were prompt, the house was clean, views were amazing, the fishing was fun, and the back porch was relaxing. I will be back again. Worth ever penny!

C Thanksgiving

Kristin is a great host when communicating with the whole process from beginning to end. Staying in a lakefront property even in winter was great. Our family enjoyed sunrises and sunsets with hot coffee watching the amazing views off the back deck.The fire pit was a nice touch. There was plenty of room for all twelve of us. Will definitely try to stay here again. Thank you Kristin.

Perfect Getaway

My husband and I rented this home for a long weekend just to get away (but still be close to home to go do farm chores a couple times a day). It's a beautiful house and the owners are responsive and accommodating! The master bedroom was gorgeous and the secondary bedrooms were large and beautiful. It would be great for a family or friend getaway. We caught a couple of fish off the pier and had just a genuinely relaxing weekend. Thanks so much and we'd definitely book again!

Great lakehouse for the family!

This was the perfect lake house for our family to get together and enjoy Labor Day weekend! The house has all the amenities you need at the lake as well as comfortable sleeping arrangements for 3 families with kiddos. We look forward to coming back in the future.

Best place we have ever stayed

It was beautiful, inviting , comfortable, relaxing, everything we needed. We did not expect it to be so wonderful as it was! The dock was just outside and down the stairs! There were plenty of llifejjackets. Our host was very kind and always available for any questions. She anticipated our needs and was 'Johnny on the spot' with answers.
