We had a great family vacation. There was enough space for everyone to gather as well as private space. The adults and children all enjoyed the water, yard, firepit, kayaks and fishing boat. We were able to rent a pontoon boat and dock it right at our pier. The lake was wonderful for relaxing, boating, swimming and fishing. My 7-year-old grandson caught a good-sized bass, much to his delight. I would highly recommend this house for your get away. Joseph was very helpful and great at communicating promptly.

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. The views were incredible, even more so when the snow was falling on the lake! Everything that could possibly be needed was available in the home (kitchen ware, bedding, etc.). The host was professional and always responded quickly to any questions we had.

This is a beautiful location in Pickney on the lake, Joe was a very friendly host with excellent communication. He was very responsive with any questions we had. We were there for a very quick stay for two nights for a wedding in town, but would gladly come back for a much longer relaxing trip.

8 senior ladies rented this property for a golfing trip. It was very adequate as everyone had their own bed. The kitchen had what we needed if we were cooking meals. Beautiful view of Portage lake with plenty of outdoor chairs and tables. Golf courses nearby was an added bonus. This would be a great place for large family vacation.
