Perfect Summer Vacation Rental

This large home on beautiful Bay Lake was enjoyed by our whole family. The cabin is very well maintained and has more than enough dishes, towels and games for a very large group. This home is just as described, and is a wonderful place for a family to vacation at.

Really great lake home!

We truly enjoyed our holiday weekend getaway at this house. Owners were quick to respond and provide so many additional touches (s’mores, firewood for bonfire, ample parking for boat trailer, dock, etc…). Hope to get an opportunity to stay here again. My husband says 6 stars out of 5, and I agree!

Wonderful Property!

This is our 8th trip to Bay Lake and this property is among the top we have stayed at. The views are great; the kitchen large and very usable; the cabin is large and was perfect for a group of 6. John and Matt are great hosts and checked in through out the week to make sure our stay was going well. We will be back again!

Great for the whole family

The cabin was perfect for our multi generational family. Games galore inside and out, we rented a pontoon from the Marina - highly recommended, but do it way ahead of time. The "cabin" is big and spacious with room to spread out and find "alone time" if needed. We're planning to go back next year, just loved it!

Summer Fun

The house and location were really great! Our young grandchildren really enjoyed swimming, fishing, the camp fires and the ability to play with their cousins. The adults enjoyed the area as we were able to take the kids to Paul Bunyan Land and mini golf for some fun afternoons. It was a great family week at a great location!
