Our long weekend family trip was great. The home was perfect for our 3 couples and 4 kids, there were plenty of extra beds for larger families and groups that we didn’t need to use. We really enjoyed the deck that overlooked the lake, we ate supper and lunch on the deck every day. The lake was about 100acres, clear, beautiful, with lots of trees, and surrounded by single-family homes (no apartments or condos). The lake was great for swimming, kayaking/canoeing, relaxing, and some fishing. There are parts of the lake that were sandy, only a small portion of this home’s shoreline was sand, but there was enough shore to keep our kids happy and entertained. The owner was very responsive and happy to answer questions. He even let us know that their raft had broken, but he had an alternate inflatable raft we could use, and a replacement raft came before our stay was over. The fire pit was also a great addition to our weekend.
The only downside to the property was that there are quite a few stairs between the lake and the house (about 60-70 steps). To make it easier there was a mini-frig in the boat house, so we didn’t need to carry a cooler down, and plenty of room to keep things down there (life jackets, snacks, fishing poles, floaties, etc.). Also, the boat house was well stocked with quite a few items; life jackets (various sizes), some floaties, a couch with a small table, mini-frig, a few fishing poles, and speaker.
We loved our time on Pearl Lake, and would defiantly stay in this home again!
