Beautiful location, cozy and homey with space for a couple big families or a large group of friends. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay celebrating my 40th birthday. This is the second time we have rented off of Holly and it has been smooth and effortless both times. Would definitely book again.

An Amazing Place to Escape

I spent two days here with work colleagues. We enjoyed the large space to cook, eat and talk. The bedrooms are well appointed, beds are comfortable and the deck with the view was fabulous. We stayed in late September and had a great time. We will be back.

Lake views, relaxation, & ice fishing

We had a wonderful experience staying at this gorgeous lakehouse. The host was so helpful and accommodating with the booking process and even left us a care package and bottle of Prosecco. The house had everything we needed and more. The ice fishing shack was a huge bonus and we all caught fish while comfortable and toasty warm. I would happily rent this place again in summer or winter.

Lakehouse weekend fun

Great lake activities and view. Lots of amenities for family's. Kitchen was ok to cook in- could be more pots and basic cooking ingredients. Cleaniness of bed sheets and and upkeep not this best.

I am so glad you enjoyed the beach and home! We also love it and the lake. I am sorry you were disappointed about kitchen supplies. We have stayed at many air bnb’s and we include way more supplies than other properties . I know you were disappointed about no lobster pot but you never asked in advance. We have spices, oils, coffee, an instapot, blender, muffin pans and so much more. Our sheets are cleaned to highest standard every time by our long term cleaner.

Family Christmas

Had a lovely family Christmas at the lake house. Host was very responsive and helpful. The property could use a deep clean (walls, furniture, etc.) and some of the linens could be replaced, but the kitchen was very well appointed and we had plenty of room for the 14 of us. All in all, a good experience.

Lakefront at its best! This is perfect!

Lake front at its best ! A perfect spot for a family reunion - lots of sleeping options allowing privacy for all. The large open kitchen and dining area is a great gathering place. This place is loaded with gathering spots both inside and outside! There’s even a super fun little hideaway room that the kids love! There are upper and lower huge decks, a huge feature for us is the level grass area to play, and the big beautiful sandy area for kids to play. There is even a walkable long dock. The location for sunsets is the best. The ambience is luxurious with a very relaxed vibe. This is our second time here and Holly the host is lovely - easy to contact and so helpful. We love this place!!

Annual Family Weekend at the Lake

Every year we take a family weekend trip to a lake cabin to close off the summer together - our family consists of us, our four adult children and their husband and wives and our 3 grand children - this year we chose Lake Isle and rented this gorgeous Lakehouse - the house itself was wonderful - the kitchen had all we needed and the open floorplan let us all be together. The grandkids enjoyed the toy room and the beach toys and we all loved the fire pit each night - the bed rooms were nice and plenty of space we brought the kayaks and launched in off the deck- all in all it was a lovely family weekend and we’d definitely rent again. i’ve already recommended it to a friend for her family as well !
