10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2026
What a gem! This house is high quality and filled with fun activities. Early on when I rented, the owner was super helpful. She answered my questions, sent me recommendations on restaurants, boat rentals and a bunch of other stuff I asked. Check in was easy and the house was stunning with million dollar views. I've rented many houses through the year and this one is excellent. Kitchen was very well stocked with every utensil and gadget you can think of; lots of non-stick pots and pans; big stacks of plates and glasses. They even had a spice cabinet full of flavors to add to our meals. The fun activities were numerous - outside kayaks, SUPs, paddle boat, ping pong, big Jenga, hammock, hot tub, ring&hook challenge and a bunch of chairs and lounges to just relax. Screened porch provided shade and comfy seating for relaxing and nice lazy Susan table for dining. The dock has comfy chairs, shade, a blue tooth stereo system and the water trampoline. Its on a quiet cove but you can see all the action zooming by just beyond the cove. Inside had air hockey (we must have played 50 games); pool table, relaxing tv areas both upstairs and downstairs; a fun bar with various machines to make tropical drinks. Plenty of bathrooms. And we were really pleased with how the house somehow suppressed sound. Air hockey was loud in the play room but barely heard upstairs. Bedrooms allowed for privacy and quiet retreat. Deer in the morning and evening. Simply a great place to stay.

I don't know where to begin. Everything was so beautiful. Beginning at the front porch down to the boat dock, it was lovely.

Incredible home with beautiful lake views. The home has many indoor and outdoor living spaces. The host has equipped the home with everything you need for your stay - from kitchen utensils to games for kids - ensuring fun for all ages. The host is also communicative and friendly, offering a turn-key stay. Highly recommend!

Great house for large family vacation, awesome amenities, 2nd kitchen, spa, great screened in patio, lots of living space, game room, huge rear decks, nice boathouse, kayaks, paddle boat and paddle boards. We greatly enjoyed our stay there. Something for everyone to do. Nice spot on the lake, small cove close to Goat Island and Washburn marina (best marine gas prices on the lake)
