What a lovely house and location! We found the house to be spacious and comfortable for four couples. Very pretty and cozy. The bed/mattresses were of nice quality and comfortable. We took turns cooking and the kitchen was well stocked with the tools and dishes we needed. We enjoyed most of our meals on the upper deck with a lovely view of the lake. I especially enjoyed my morning coffee on the deck! The lake was great for swimming and kayaking which we did every day. One day we took a 35 minute (approximately) drive to the Kal-Haven Trail for a walk, but mostly stayed around the house. One night we made BBQ chicken on the gas grill. We made a bon fire next to the water and played games inside another. There are several games stocked in the lower level. I am already planning my stay for next summer!
Making reservations was seamless. As was communicating with our contact person with a couple of questions.
Sisters weekend, lots of space, indoor and out! Plenty of gathering areas! Non motor lake and that was perfect! Quiet! good kitchen with all the tools! Enough beds for all, and the bed linens were super soft. Owner was wonderful and responsive. Great spot!

Hi Maggie, thank you so much for sharing about your time at our house! We are so happy you had plenty of space for you and your sisters to gather. We are glad you loved the quiet lake, it’s our favorite too! We are thrilled that you were comfortable, and found the bed linens to be super soft. Please come back any time!
We had a fantastic stay at this lake house! The home was spacious, comfortable, clean and well stocked. It easily accommodated our group of 8 adults and 2 children. The child-proof gates were a huge plus with little ones. The lake itself was beautiful—perfect for swimming. We would definitely rent it again.

From the Owner: "Tracey, thank you so much for sharing about your experience at our home. We are so happy it accommodated your big group, and we had everything you needed stocked. We love using the baby gates for our family, and we are so glad they were helpful for you, too. We would love to have you back for more swimming and fun at the lake!"
Great house with a beautiful backyard view. The house was clean and spacious and beautifully decorated. Our group was very pleased with everything. Our host was great at communicating & responded quickly to any questions we had. It was a very positive experience!!

I was staying with my husband and 2 longtime friends, so we needed a couple of bedrooms and bathrooms for privacy. This home filled the bill, and then some! The large living area with sectional was perfect for kicking back after being on the lake. 2 kayaks and a paddle boat were provided and we made use of them several times during our stay. The double decks were also great with plenty of seating.The house was clean and well stocked. We would stay here again without a question!
