Absolutely beautiful home on a beautiful lake. The 3 levels of home made it great for larger families needing places to sleep/quiet. Very clean! The ping pong table was a hit on the rainy day. Would definitely book again!

Lovely lake location for all ages

We stayed here to celebrate my mother’s 80th birthday. The location had something for everyone. The kids loved the ping pong and pool table and it worked out so well to have three separate living areas to spread out. Loved that there are baby items available that worked for the youngest in our group. The lake is beautiful if a bit weedy. The kids loved riding on the pontoon and using the paddle boards. The host was responsive and very patient with my many questions.

Spacious House in a Great Location

The house is spacious, welcoming, and well-designed, offering excellent separation between the floors. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. While the first night was disrupted by some issues with alarms and noise, these were promptly resolved the following day.

Forest Lake getaway

Our stay was relaxing and enjoyable. Mostly enjoyed time at the house with family, playing games, eating, boating. We did venture out to the Pizza Pub for lunch, to the town via boat for music night and art fair, a winery, golf and pickleball. Location was fantastic for adult children who had some work responsibilities so easily able to come and go to the cities.

An extraordinary location for children & their adults! The arcade games, ping pong table, pocket pool, beach toys and layout with open floors facilitated fun for kids from 1-70 yrs. A commodious garage with two paddle board, PFDs, flotation toys & other beach paraphernalia were much appreciated. The onsite pontoon boat was another great plus. Great deck, fire pit and grill. The owner was very quick to provide lots of useful information. A wasp hive enroute to the beach resulted in a few stings and the lower level was a bit cool for comfortable sleeping & lacked a bathroom but overall my extended family and I were very pleased and would return without hesitation!

Amazing space for us. Teens loved the pool/ping pong table. Adults were glad it was seperate from bedrooms allowing teens late night games. So many great areas to gather. Loved the sun room.

Beautiful Lake Home

This beautiful lake home was so enjoyable to stay at. So many great and thoughtful amenities! Beautiful views & a very clean and well decorated place to stay. Everyone that stayed had a great time and the kids really enjoyed every part from the indoor games to the outdoor activities. It’s such a family friendly place and everyone talked about how much fun they had, how relaxing it was and how they wish we would have stayed longer. We highly recommend this place to stay and hope to return someday.

Our family enjoyed the spacious house with plenty of room for all of us. The kids enjoyed the water toys. Large yard & deck, close neighbors. The lake has a lot of weeds. Rented the pontoon but wouldn’t do that again. We would love to return!
