This was an awesome property for our family to get together and make beautiful memories. Plenty of room for playing, swimming, paddling, campfires, and ball games with the kids. We had the pleasure of hearing loons on the lake daily and heard great horned owls one night.

Our grandchildren were counting the days to our vacation at the big red house. They were not disappointed. Everyone fell in love with the place and anticipates returning for many years to come.

This house could easily sleep 22 people but we found it to be just fine for our group of 8. We very much enjoyed the waterfront and all the boat options (kayak, canoe, rowboat) The large lawn has plenty of flat areas on which to play badminton and corn hole which we brought with us. We used the outside fire pit often during our stay and it is surrounded by very nice, sturdy & comfortable Adirondack chairs from LL Bean which 2 of us now wish to look for and purchase for our own homes. There are several bedrooms & beds (some very firm-some very soft) so you can try out several and decide which is the most comfortable for you. As the listing states the house uses propane and can be very dark inside. A few of the lights were not working (and later the propane fueled refrigerator) for the first few days of our stay but the owner apologized and had the repairmen out to fix them which helped to brighten the rooms in the evening. The main fireplace is absolutely beautiful and we used it many times as the nights sometimes were cool. Wood was available and plentiful for both indoor & outdoor fires. The house is very well furnished with cooking items and games so save your vehicle space as you really don't need to pack any of these items. The large porches have lots of comfortable seating and the sunrise and sunset views from the porch are fantastic. The owner Karen was very helpful and available for any needs that we had. She also had great recommendations for dining and trail/walking areas. We are big walkers and took walks daily. There is a very long dining room table in the dining area that we used for both meals and to play numerous family games and cards every night. The history of the house is quite interesting and there are many books to read if you are looking for a relaxing, lazy day indoors or on the porch. If you, like us, are quite content with the older, rustic, camp experience this house will not disappoint! Thank you Karen and hope to venture out your way again!!

Heath Camp takes you back in time to enjoying wide porches, lake views, picnics, cookouts, campfires, walks, swimming, paddling, patchwork quilts, fresh air & shooting stars viewing just to name a few of all there is to enjoy. We love the gaslight lamps, spacious rooms, open air. porch and screen porch, fire pit on warm night, and fireplace on a chilly night. The kitchen was well appointed. great books to read, 'natural AC' of cross ventilation through all the patio doors and screened windows. We had the most wonderful time and can't wait to return.
