Host was extremely attentive and a pleasure to work with. The house has a great location and was well suited for an extended family gathering. We would definitely return.
Great house - very family friendly. Had everything we needed for a 3 day stay. The hosts are wonderful and very easy to communicate with. We will definitely be back!
We had a wonderful stay at this property. It was super clean and the owner provided linen service. The kitchen was well appointed and had everything we needed to make family dinners The game room with pool table, pinball machine and numerous board games was a hit with our entire family (6-67). Check in was super simple and the owner was available to answer any questions we had. We will definitely be booking this property again!
Had a great time with my family. The house was very spacious. Plenty of bedrooms. We loved both the outdoor porch and the screened in porch. Beautiful views and lots of wildlife!
We loved our stay at Stagshead! We were a party of 3 with two dogs that had visitors on multiple days, including a wheelchair-bound father and two under ten. Plenty of space to eat, play, and sleep. Kitchen was stocked well and the playground is right next door. Would stay again!
The house is exactly as described - clean, spacious, and very well maintained. We loved being right next door to the public beach area and spent plenty of time there. The house amenities also kept us busy, we played plenty of pool and went out on the kayaks, canoe, SUP daily. One of our more relaxing, family-togetherness trips ever!
This is a great house for a family or a few families to stay and enjoy some lake life together! You can’t beat the location- right next to a park and beach, and it’s so quiet at night! We enjoyed the crisp mountain air and beautiful neighborhood. Mike, the host, was very responsive and helpful! We will definitely book this house again!
My party of 9 (4 adults, 5 kids) enjoyed our stay. Having the beach right next door is sooo convenient. The kids enjoyed the available paddle board and kayaks, and the ability to fish right in the backyard was pretty cool. We visited the Island pool on one day, which was nice - with snack stand and booze truck, but opted for the convenience of the beach instead for the remainder of the trip. We mostly cooked all of our food - the kitchen is stocked with dishes, pots and utensils. A propane grill is available (no grill tools available when we stayed, so we had to buy our own). Walmart delivers here - we took advantage of this service throughout the trip. We ventured out for dinner one night (Powerhouse Eatery) - it's a 20-30min drive to do anything outside the community, but you really don't need to leave to enjoy your time here.
Terrific location for young children. Beautiful new deck. If you have a handicapped person with you, make sure they can walk comfortably using a walker. Not a good place for wheelchair access to bathroom or bedroom. The ramp is good, but each door has a high threshold.
We stayed at this property during the winter so did not have access to pools or beaches. BUT, we still had a great getaway. We took advantage of the house amenities such as the pool table and board games as well as went snow tubing. The house is great and within a gated community which we loved. The house itself is well laid out and had plenty of the every day things you need to be comfortable. (kitchen wares, etc.). We would absolutly stay again!
We absolutely loved our stay!! The house was beautiful, spacious, clean and had everything we needed to prepare meals and feel right at home. The deck was absolutely perfect for relaxing with morning coffee or an evening cocktail. The billiard table was a hit with everyone as well, especially on a rainy day. Several in our group took advantage of the kayak, canoe and paddleboard many times during our stay. They all loved being out on the lake exploring. Mike was welcoming and answered any questions throughout our stay very fast. We would highly recommend this house to any group looking to get away and spend some time on a lake. We were sad to leave and can't wait to come back! Really awesome house!!
Very nice house and location. Well stocked. The sauna and pinball could use a little more directions. The refrigerator is on its last straw, but works. Just missing a handle. The linens left at the door is a nice touch. The interior was clean but I think the outside furniture could be cleaned a little more by the cleaning crew. Propane lasted on the upstairs fire. A big heads up. When we arrived they had a no fire pit burn restriction. Not sure why? Just because it didnt rain 1 week? We checked with the state and county web sites and this area wasn't in it. So it's a Arrowhead thing. One of our main reasons is the fire pit and doing keilbasa over it. Also in the morning it's fully wet everywhere from the dew. So we didn't get it. We had a small fire anyway and nobody bothered us. But being nervous about getting caught took the fun out of it. All in all I highly recommend the place and Mike is a great host.

Response from VrboOwner on 3 Feb, 2025
This guest checked in, his wife showed up and was very upset. We talked to them on the phone several times, let them stay there that first night for free, and then ultimately gave them a full refund when they checked out the next day.
