This property was exactly as described and pictured! It is located on a very peaceful & quiet street. It is also dog friendly which was perfect for us. The waterfront was beautiful but we were unable to use the watercraft's provided due to rain. The property manager was a delight and even left us the sweetest welcome treat! We will definitely be returning to enjoy this lake house again!

Thank you for your fantastic review! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your stay and that the property lived up to your expectations. It's a shame about the rain, but we hope you can come back soon to enjoy the water activities. We enjoyed hosting you again, see you next time!
We spent a long weekend fishing and golfing around the Lake Ariel area. The house has everything you need and plenty of space for everyone to stretch out. The lake front was amazing with a dock, firepit and a wonderful deck over looking the water. Its also a very private location. Would recommend and hope to stay here again in the future.

Our favorite home on the lake
We absolutely love this house. The layout is so nice. It was just the two of us and we didn’t even have to go upstairs. Master bedroom, living, dining and kitchen all on first floor.
Woodburning fireplace and the extremely comfortable living room that overlooks the lake.
I wouldn’t change a thing about this house. Beautiful yard, nice dock we have zero complaints.
Thank you Christianne for all your help!
We had a wonderful week away from the hustle of the daily grind in this comfy beautiful home. The kitchen was well stocked and clean with gorgeous living space set around a floor to ceiling stone mantle, even a comfy nook to take advantage of the slower pace. The bedrooms were well designed and lots of comfortable space for a group. The view of Lake Henry from all areas of the house was such a treat. We often found ourselves mentally drifting away while enjoying our time relaxing. There was an issue with the hot tub cover being broken creating an undesirable aversion to spending time on the deck, but not a substantial concern and was addressed with the agent immediately. Any concerns we had upon arrival were addressed and we had a great week. We would love to come back and enjoy the property during different seasons. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking to enjoy time in nature and relax in the ultimate comfort.

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review. We're glad you were able to unwind and enjoy the peaceful surroundings and thoughtful touches throughout the home. The lake views really do have a way of helping you disconnect and recharge. We appreciate you bringing the hot tub cover issue to our attention right away—it’s important to us that any concerns are addressed promptly, and we’re glad it didn’t take away from your overall experience. We did address it during your stay (temporarily so we don't disturb you) and after with a more permanent solution. We’d be happy to welcome you back any time of year to enjoy all the seasons at Lake Henry.
We had a mixed bag during the week. For the beginning of the week it was my wife, myself and my daughter. She was required to work mid week so we were alone for a couple of days to relax in the afternoon sun. It was great. Toward the end of the week the house filled up with my brother and his wife, my niece, husband and baby and their dog. The house was able to accomodate everyone with their own space while not being cramped. Everyone was free to do what they wanted on the lake. The weather was perfect for August. Warm days, cool nights by the fire pit. Perfect vacation in my book. Thank-you for sharing your home with us.

We were very surprised and disappointed to see your 3-star review—especially since there was absolutely no communication from you during your stay, no response to our follow-up messages, and no feedback provided in your review.
A rating without any context or explanation is not only unhelpful but directly impacts our small business and the efforts we put into providing a clean, well-equipped home with responsive, thoughtful hospitality. We’re always open to feedback and eager to address any issues that may arise, but we were never given that opportunity in your case.
While we typically welcome guests back and strive to turn any less-than-perfect stay into a better future experience, in this instance, we respectfully ask that you do not book with us again. We reserve our homes for guests who value communication and collaboration.
