Beautiful lake view from a beautiful home. Our group of 10 had plenty of room and the house was clean and comfortable. Definitely would stay again.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2025
Another excellent stay at this gorgeous house on Palmer Lake. Love the huge kitchen, giant kitchen table and couch, the fire pit, plentiful outdoor seating and easy lake access. Some of the checkout info is a bit out of date, but the hosts were very responsive throughout the week to our questions and very minor issues. Can't wait to plan another stay here!

Excellent lakefront home for our party of 12. Second year at this home. Will be returniing again anithr year. Also, Palmer Lake is an excellent all sports lake with low boat traffic.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jul 2025
Our family stayed for 5 nights at the Collins home on Palmer Lake and there are so many wonderful things we could say about this rental. There were 10 of us total (5 children ranging from 3-14) and we all had so much fun enjoying fishing, swimming, pontoon cruising, and the many indoor and outdoor activities and toys available at the home. The pontoon was spacious and perfect for enjoying the lake, highly recommend renting it during your stay. The outdoor seating and porch areas were definitely a highlight when not on the lake, the sunsets were a perfect view. The home was clean and stocked with plenty of things to make the stay feel more like home. We had such a great time. Thank you John and Angel!
