We stayed at this amazing property with family over Christmas, and it completely blew us away. The house had everything we could’ve asked for and more – the best we’ve seen when it comes to amenities and appliances. Having multiple fridges, stoves, and dishwashers made it so easy to cook and clean up for a large group. The place was super clean, really spacious, and still managed to feel cozy and welcoming. It was also so quiet, which made it the perfect spot to relax. The lake right next to the property was gorgeous, and there were plenty of scenic roads for walks. Even the drive to get there was a nice experience. The service and communication were excellent, and our whole family was thrilled with the stay. We’d absolutely recommend this place to anyone and would love to come back someday!

The perfect vacation house for families, especially city-dwellers seeking respite from crowds, noise, and pollution. Bobs Lake is pristine, raw wilderness, black night skies and bright stars, clean fresh water, and real privacy. The house is new and well-designed, offering thoughtful touches and accommodations for all ages, like stools in the bathrooms for kids, and first-floor bedroom for those unable to go upstairs. Our family comes back every year, and Bobs Lake is a cherished part of our family memories.

We had an unforgettable stay with 13 family members ranging in age from 18 to 78- the Great House had all the comforts of home, with a lovely view of the lake and easy access to the lake. The gourmet kitchen was a pleasure to cook in and there were appliances galore (I actually made lemon ice cream and coffee ice cream from scratch). The accessible bathroom and bedroom on the main level worked out perfectly for the seniors in our group. The property managers were quick to respond with any questions about the property as well as providing updates and re-stocking of supplies. The owners Marla and Larry were fantastic hosts - readily available and responsive to our group's questions- the boat tour they took us around Bobs lake leading to The Rock and the Island House were magical and made for unique experiences that the youngsters in our group will never forget. The Great House served as a perfect backdrop for our family's gathering in a place which had ample space for everyone, from the patio on the dock to the entertaining ping pong table in the screened in porch, to the hot tub and the fire pit. The kitchen was very well- appointed and made for some fun evenings of cooking family meals together. Air conditioned comfort was appreciated and the cleanliness and brightness of the home was very welcoming. The Great House was very conducive to lots of great moments of just hanging, resting and catching up with our dear family members.
