Summary: My family stays in Dexter twice a year to visit family. The place we have been staying for years is no longer available for short stays so we scrambled to find another place. This place was beyond perfect. Cozy, plenty of space, comfortable beds, and stocked with anything you may need. My husband and kids enjoyed the easy access to the snowmobile trail. Will definitely book again!

Summary: The property matches the listing. I, my mother and my uncle had a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Positives: 1. The property was clean and well maintained. All appliances and amenities were in as-new condition. 2. Lake Wassookeag is beautiful and good for fishing. 3. The kayaks were stable and great for causal use or beginners. Negatives: These are minor inconveniences. 1. The house is on a central road and gets truck noise that interrupted our sleep several times. 2. All the doors in the house are sliding, with finicky latches. We found this inconvenient. 3. The lake access is not easy for people with mobility issues. There is a significant gap at the top of the access stairs. This is a careful, big step down for an able person, but requires assistance for someone with uncertain footing. 5. Bathtub was new and clean, but uncomfortable design. 4. The hosts were entirely reasonable and communicated well, but it was a business-like experience, with set procedures for everything. I was very surprised when they wanted a signed rental agreement, like a lease. I had never seen that at a VRBO before. I may be out of date, but my taste is for a more mom and pop way of doing things. Recommendations: Swimming off the dock is not good due to shallow water and water plants. Drive 3 minutes or take a kayak 20 minutes across the lake to the public beach and boat launch.

Summary: We had a wonderful experience at this beautiful Vrbo. The hosts were organized and easy to communicate with. They responded quickly to all inquiries in a pleasant, professional manner. The house was clean, tastefully decorated and and full of amenities. The property was well suited to our group of young adults. We enjoyed the 4 kayaks, had a bonfire and watched the beautiful sunset from the deck . We couldn't have been more pleased by our experience. We will stay again should the opportunity arise.

Summary: Spacious and clean, lovely view to the lake and central to all we needed. Excellent communication. Beds were not as comfortable as we are used to but all other amenities made up for it. Beautiful kitchen space and very comfortable living room chair and couches.

Summary: We were in town visiting family and found this gem of a property. It was cozy and homey with a large sun room in the front that was delightful. Plenty of room for our larger family, and a well stocked kitchen to help prepare meals. We highly recommend this house if you’re in the area and looking for a great place to relax!
