Everything was wonderful! As amazing as described only the sunsets were even better! We were lucky and could not have asked for better weather, too! We will be returning and highly recommend the experience!

This house was a great spot for my whole family. With grandkids ranging in age from 2-22 years old everyone had a great time.
8 / 10Excellent·Jun 2026
Probably could use some spider spray inside and outside.The steps inside were very steep and small, not for older people.The lake view was fantastic!The way the wording was on the bedrooms I thought there were 2 bedrooms on the main level. Talked to host and they will reword, so that will be very helpful.Loved the black stone for cooking outside, it worked great for many people.A very big hike from car parking to house, again not for older people. My brother has ALS and it was hard for him, as well as my older sister and husband who have bad knees.It would be nice to have a deck or some sort of flat landing where we could sit and enjoy the outdoors.Overall, we made it work and had a fantastic time.

Andrew was very quick to respond to our questions which we appreciate that so much. He was accommodating to our needs and was flexible with us. We can tell Andrew took good care of the property and ensure the property felt as relaxing as possible. The main house and the guest house were clean with lots of kid activities. The place had no odor which we appreciate. The sofas were nice and comfy and had there were lots of seating areas. We would most definitely return!
