10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
We had a great time with my family (2 parents 4 kids) at this location. Beautiful home on a very quiet lake/pond. The house was close to restaurants, grocery stores, and other activities yet tucked away as well. Kids had a blast and loved the theatre room on the first floor. The beach area was very well kept. Perfect for a family vacation.

We just returned from the most incredible family vacation and we can't stop raving about our experience! From the moment we walked in the door, we knew we had made the right choice. The house was absolutely perfect - spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated. The location was ideal, with plenty of amenities and activities.But what truly made our stay stand out was the exceptional service provided by our host, Anna-Lisa. She went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, from recommending local restaurants to providing helpful tips and recommendations. Her attention to detail and warm hospitality made us feel like we were part of the family.Our family created so many wonderful memories during our stay, from lazy mornings by the lake to fun-filled days exploring the surrounding area. The house was the perfect base for our adventures, and we loved coming back to relax and unwind in the evenings with a toasty fire.We can't recommend this property enough to other families looking for a fantastic vacation experience. The combination of a great house, perfect location, and exceptional host made for an unforgettable trip that we will always treasure. Thank you to our host, Anna-Lisa, for creating such a special experience for us - we can't wait to come back and do it all again!

It was a great place. All amenities well thought out. We lacked nothing. Only thing is glass and windows could have been cleaned for the start of the season and decks and patios swept before we arrived. Would also make it easier if more outdoor rugs were available. No big deal. I enjoy putting around and doing things but I also like nice clean windows to look out from. Overall, I would recommend this property to family and friends. The pond was glorious, and the ground's very neat. Thank you very much Anna Lisa
