Great house. Had everything we needed and more. Beautiful view of lake. Was perfect amount of space for our 8 guests. Very quiet community which is exactly what we wanted! Thank you!
The communication process was awesome by the owners. The property was great being on the water. House was clean. It was nice to use the beach area. The property itself was a bit unkept. Weeds were overgrown and we had to cut them down to enter into the guest house by the sliding glass door. The living room space does not offer enough seating for the amount of people the house can hold. I would recommend adding another couch. Front porch had cigarette butts in a can. The guest house basement rooms had an odor to them. Has so much potential to be a beautiful property, but we did enjoy all the kayaking and row boats. Fun long weekend. A property manager would be a plus.
Good rating upgraded to VERYgood based on owner fast, impressive response to any issue we raised. There are/were minor maintenance items which were or are being addressed. I would not hesitate to return.
Beautiful view of the lake. Private dock made it fun for fishing. Fishing on the pond that had a large variety of all kinds of fish. Even caught a turtle.The host were right on top of any questions or concerns that I had about the house and responded quickly. Would highly recommend
The house location is great and the amenities were great. The dock, fire pit and hot tub were great. The seating in the living areas and dining room were not enough compared to how many people the house could sleep.
The property itself is amazing but they need to take care of it. It looks forgotten, neglected. Spiderwebs everywhere, Hot tub didnât work and it was dirty with mold. Host said they put chemicals on it and that it was cleaned the day before we arrived, even though it was well water it was obviously not cleaned at all. He said cleaning clerk would go to check the next day but they never showed up so we couldnât use it. Overall, lake was amazing, kayak experience is wonderful. House is big and cozy but it needs more attention and maintenance
We stayed 3 nights, with 6 adults and 2 dogs. The property could house a small army. The place was definitely well-loved, with signs the owner had been making renovations. The dock was newly rebuilt, and the guest house was newly renovated. Guest house 1st floor game room and bedroom smelled strongly of paint/new carpet/building materials, and it was too cold to leave doors/windows open to ventilate so we did not use them. Guest houe had a big eastern-facing window with no curtain - good for early birds but not night owls. The large kitchen in the main house was adequate and pretty well equipped. Pans were pretty scraped up, but we still managed to cook up a storm. The shower curtain in the small bath of the main house was too short and water went all over the floor, so we stopped using that shower. Outside: 2 river kayaks, 1 ocean kayak, paddleboat, and life jackets were provided. There was a fire pit, hot tub, hammock, and charcoal grill. It was cold and wet during our stay, but we took a pleasant paddle around the lake during a spot of sun. Outdoors could use a litter pickup. We were there for daffodil season, and there were signs of other flowering plants coming up for following months. Rental description said 99 pet fee and up to 3 dogs allowed, but after booking we were informed it was 99 for first dog and 50 per extra dog. Still a reasonable dog fee, but not exactly as advertised.
Location is great right on the lake, plenty of activities and lots of room! Weather could have been better but we made the most of the days that were good!
We were a group of friends that had a great time at this house. The lake is a huge hit, especially with the dock and canoes. We enjoyed the ping pong and foosball additions, and lots of fun attractions in the nearby area. Check in/out was super easy. Most importantly, Michael and Ashleigh were always quick to respond and made sure we were well taken care of in their lovely home!
Very spacious, great location to enjoy nature. Hosts provided us with all essentials and then some, like kayaks and an outdoor hot tub and game room. Great for families, would definitely stay again. Hosts were quick to respond to all questions and very polite and friendly.
This was a greatly located house right next to the lake which was a nice view. They had a hot tub, fire pit, kayaks and a hammock. The biggest issue with this place was it wasnât the cleanest place when we arrived. In the guest bedroom there were a pack of eaten gummy worms under the bed that lead to ants in our room. The hot tub had a horrible smell and said the cleaning time was overdue by 150 days. We tried to clean these the best we could and still had a fun time. I would also just ask to make sure everything is available because when we got there the game room was under construction and we werenât happy about that.
Great trip- lake house was as described and we enjoyed our stay. Weather was so-so, but still nice for some late season skiing, relaxing in the hot tub by the lake, and hiking around the perimeter of the lake. We plan to stay again in the summer.
Great house for a group of friends - we went on a ski trip. Everything was as described. Hot tub was great and fireplace was cozy in evenings. We would stay again
Upon pulling up to the house it had recently snowed and it was a bit icy but we were greeted by a warm hearth with fire already ablaze. Our 6 teenagers scrambled to pick their bedrooms while we stocked the fridge and began to heat up food in the oven. The kitchen was fully stocked with utensils, dinnerware and pots/pans but we brought paper and plastic. Could have used some more trash bags (good thing I brought a few) There was enough room at the table in the dining area for the 6 kids, and we happily ate separately at the bistro set in the kitchen. My husband and I stayed in the guest house, and were previously warned that a pipe had frozen and broke so there would be no water in that building. We were offered a refund by the hosts but our plans were already set so we just dealt with the minor inconvenience. The guest loft is above the garage and upstairs is very well heated, but downstairs, where the game room is was freezing (the game room is actually the garage area) They were busy enough though, as we went snow tubing on Saturday and they were in and out of the hot tub and went sliding around on the iced over lake. The hot tub definitely needs a water change though. Or a lot of chemicals bc the water was quite smelly. (I made them shower right away after) We also shoveled the snow out of the fire pit, built a fire and roasted marshmallows.The path from the main house to the guest house was very icy, but we made due. Great time overall and we would go back in summertime.
Location was awesome, cleanliness and condition of the home - not great.
Upon Arrival; no water in the guest house, heater hanging off the wall and no power.  The back deck buckled under our feet and the exterior doors would not open without fidgeting the handle and pulling up or down on it.  We opened the hot tub lid, and it was barely full and smelled like it hadn't been cleaned.  I contacted the homeowner, and he offered a 100 refund. There was nothing available in the area and we drove 3.5 hours.  We called back, he offered "200 refund and a 5 star review," I agreed at first and was concerned with his comment - were all reviews because a refund was given? Then it seemingly got worse.  Broken shelves in the refrigerator, filthy bathrooms that had hair & dirt in the bottom, makeshift couch that looked like 2 corners to a sectional couch pushed together, wires hanging from the fireplace, dirty pots and pans, mold bread in the cabinet. Smoke detectors with no batteries and hanging off the wall, broken fire pit chairs, cobwebs everywhere, random holes in the halls and stains on the wall in the bathrooms and bedrooms.  The best part of the house was the deck to the frozen lake and the location to town.   I was shocked over the 5-star comment that came with my refund of only 200. He assured me that his cleaners always went in depth - that is not the case.  Renters, beware of the condition of the home - never had an issue with VRBO before now. Â
The property guest house was flooded and the house was dirty, like they just made the beds and threw dried towels on the bed to look clean. The cleaner was supposed to clean the ice up in the guest house and she threw towls on the floor and left.
The house is exactly as pictured, and is nearby to many attractions. We most loved the hot tub, which was the perfect way to end a long day. We were not able to get the fireplace to work, but the hosts were responsive when we inquired about it. Would stay again.
Me & my family stayed here Christmas weekend dc 20-23 , let me just say , we had lots of fun , it was nice . The host were very responsive , and helpful , I will say there were minor issues that as soon as I told the host they were there with remedies & answers , even let me check out a hour later
