Great house, good value. Plenty of rooms to absorb our family and very comfortable accommodations.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jan 2026
This property was excellent for our needs. It housed 7 adults and 2 children comfortably. The dining table was large enough to accommodate large holiday meals and seat 9 with ease. The gym was equipped to meet our needs. The ping pong table in the basement was a highlight. The fire place is well designed and efficient, providing heat as well as attracting everyone to the spacious and comfy living area. The property manager was responsive and available by text (to help find a TVremote, ping pong paddles, shoveled the driveway daily). The house is warm in winter and there is a thermostat in most every room. Details include ample electrical plugs at convenient locations, bedside reading lights...high ceilings with many floor to ceiling windows...bedrooms have sliding doors that face the lake. The moon over the huge pond is spectacular.The house is dated in an overall charming sort of way, it has quirks. For example, when you shower in the master bath, there is a rumble, the floor shakes, sulfur smell, but that goes away after the shower. This property is fun... tennis/basketball court, gym, ping pong, long beautiful driveway/isolated, acres of land, multiple sliding doors that open to wooden decks that lead to the lake. Price point could be 3-400 lower...It's not fancy linens and it has quirks...but it's warm, cozy, safe feeling, perfect for extended families.

We had a wonderful time. Our group was there for a family wedding nearby and the house was perfect for our big group.
6 / 10Average·Dec 2024
This was a very spacious property with beautiful views and a particularly nice living room in the main house, but there are fewer bedrooms than listed. The main house has two bedrooms on the first floor and two bedrooms on the second floor. The bedrooms on the second floor have beds that are extremely old and uncomfortable. The upstairs bathroom has a shower that leaks water and a bathroom that stays very cold. The thermostats all over the property were difficult to control, and most of the bedrooms were too hot. The pullout couch on the second floor had all kinds of outdoor debris and like acorns- so the kids didn’t want to sleep on it. It was also very old and uncomfortable. The king size bed on the first floor was very comfortable, which was nice. The kitchen is actually quite small and the dishwasher is very finicky- our dishes were not that clean and needed to be dried. The guest house which is separate from the main house is much more updated and beautiful. Unfortunately, the bedroom on the second floor over there was like a sauna. Even setting the thermostat way down did not seem to work.
