House was beautiful, great open spaces for our large family. Lots of room for sleeping, on the water with sandy walkout, and wonderful yard/deck to lounge on.

We had a amazing time at the house and enjoyed all the details and thoughtful design of the space. It was very clean, well equiped, and had everything you'll need to enjoy a beautiful lake vacation. The host is also very responsive and helped us out with several things we needed while staying there. HIGHLY recommend, and will definitely be rebooking this space!

Wonderful Quiet Vacation Spot

We had a wonderful family vacation at this home on the lake! We stay at a different location every year with our extended family and this was by far the favorite we have ever stayed in. We all decided this one is worth repeating and hope to come back again!

A wonderful home for a family to vacation with many extras! The house was very clean. It has lots of bath towels, board and card games, books and puzzles, and outside includes kayaks and a paddle board and a swing in the tree. There are supplies in the kitchen as well as for laundry. The living area is open with a lot of space for a large family. The owner responds timely and great to work with, if you have a question or need. The only thing we noticed is that the listing says queen beds, but they are full size. We would definitely return to this home.

We’re so happy you had a great time. Thanks for coming! I do want to confirm all beds are queen. The only full is the bottom bunk and possibly the pull out couches. Have a great rest of your summer

We had a great time staying at the lake house. We all love the views of the lake and the kids had fun playing in the yard and digging tunnels and even the little teeny sled hill on the other side of the barn was fun for them. Super helpful that Hanson hills was only a mile down the road. The kids went downhill skiing and the parents went cross country and some downhill. So much fun was had. Thank you. We liked how stocked the house was with the few little extra things like cooking, oil etc. That was nice. And thanks for the nice note.

Family time

We really enjoyed our stay. My husband and I enjoyed coming with both of our adult children and their family. There was plenty of space for all of us. Great lake access. We were able to use our boat. Our son and granddaughter also used the provided paddle boat and paddle board. We enjoyed watching the sunset over the lake. We played Cornhole and enjoyed the deck. Thanks large open living room and kitchen were fantastic for relaxing family time. We look forward to staying here again.
