Summary: We had an amazing stay. The home is so well organized and comfortable, Pillows and bedding are crisp and comfy! You do not need to bring anything. Super easy to keep the space clean as they provide products to get the job done. The interior is bright and full of local character. Thanks for the little touches of hospitality that make a vacation special. The view is priceless. The beach is 10/10. What about those planters!!! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Summary: The Empire Beach house was perfect for our family! The house was very clean, well appointed and efficiently organized. I can't say enough about how awesome the deck and beach area are. Typically when we have visited the SBDNL area, we pack up and head to one of the many public beaches which are great in their own right. But there was no need for that at the Empire Beach House since the private beach is spacious and the water and sandbar are just as good as our other favorite beaches. The property management team was very responsive to any questions we had which were few since they put a lot of thought and effort into prepping the house. We would love to stay here again!!

Summary: Inside property outstanding. Outside needs cleaning. For cost of rental would expect outside to have better upkeep? Every morning at 555am very loud boaters were putting boats in lake. Lovely well decorated interior, supplies crazy good and high quality. Loved proximity to lake. Deck wonderful with firepit and gas stove. We had a WONDERFUL vacation.

Summary: The views alone are incredible, but in addition, the house was truly perfect. Clean, simple, organized, and still offers a great view from inside for those cooler mornings. The deck off the house was awesome! We spent most mornings on the deck with coffee, and every evening there with a bonfire. The beach area was awesome, and we appreciated the Adirondack Chairs being available for use (one less item to pack). It was so nice being able to take just a few short steps to the beach, and then also the ability to walk our young kids to the two different public playgrounds at the public beach. It's a great home for all ages! We would love to stay here again!

Summary: The sunsets!! It was exciting to see the different beach daily ( water moves it around). It can be calm and relaxing or you can join in the activities Nextdoor on public beach. Volleyball, children’s playgrounds or just people watch.
