Summary: Perfect house for family gathering where enough spaces for get togethers or just want to be alone. Beautiful views of the lake. Kids really enjoyed the game room; wished we were there longer. Definitely recommend and will book again. Jay was great with communications and very accommodating.

Summary: The reason we chose this house/property was predominantly because of the size (how many people it could accommodate for sleeping). It did not disappoint! There were 7 adults and 7 children (ages 5 thru 14). We all comfortably slept, with room to spare. There was even a glamping tent set up in the yard, inside a screen porch...that was extra that didn't even use for sleeping. We hosted a 50th wedding anniversary one day at this house; an extra 25-ish people showed up. Between the kitchen, living room and dining room...as well as the outside deck and gazebo with mosquito screen - there was plenty of room for all of us to mingle and visit. The kitchen is equipped with pretty much every appliance, pot/pan, utensil that you might need to host a party or just for preparing family meals. A HUGE bonus with this house is the included water toys (canoe, kayaks, floaties and pontoon). We spent most of our days on the pontoon either fishing or towing the kids around the lake on the tube. The kids absolutely loved it! For the fishermen out there; we caught sun fish, blue gill and small northerns right off the dock. In addition we were able to catch a fairly nice sized bass out in the middle of the lake. With just a small hook and a worm, we kept the kids entertained for hours dropping the line in and reeling in sun fish/blue gills. The owner (Jay) is very communicative...he is quick to respond to any and all questions/comments/inquiries that we had. Tremendous property!!!

Summary: We went as a group of 5 adult couples and this worked out perfect! Communication and check in was very clear and easy. The screened in porch and bonfire pits were really nice. The cabin had a beautiful view, and we really appreciated the pontoon being included! It’s a nice lake. A little weedy by the dock, so some of us who are babies wore our water shoes, but it really wasn’t too bad. Plenty of bedrooms/beds and bathrooms. Just a heads up, this isn’t really close to many restaurants or shops, but we had planned to spend all of our time at the cabin anyway and did enjoy some bloody Mary’s and appetizers at the Harriet Club. Overall great stay!

Summary: This was a family gathering of three generations. The accommodations were plentiful, and a couple thoroughly enjoyed glamping. The grandchildren enjoyed the arcade, car racing, and laser tag. We all loved the pontoon for fishing and tubing. There was plenty to do or just relax in the gazebo. It was a quiet lake and out in the woods.

Summary: Great property for our extended family group of 10. We had everything we needed. The lake is beautiful, nicely explored via pontoon, kayaks, standup paddle board, etc. The glamping tent was a fun extra option for sleeping.
