Beautiful home
Lovely home on the lake, ducks and swans. Chilly fall weather, but tables and chairs ava on patio. We were a group of senior folks, so had a bit of adjustment with no shoes inside - wear slippers with treads, not just socks. Home fully accommodating with large supply of towels, etc. thank you, Joseph,.well built, lovely home!

Weekend at the lake
Beautiful site right on the lake. We were in town for a local wedding and the house was perfect for the 10 of us. The littles were excited about sleeping in the loft space. The beds were comfortable, and things were clean. Plenty of space for everyone. The older kids enjoyed an evening fire in the firepit. The neighborhood was quiet, and we walked the area streets and felt very safe. We wouldn't mind coming back when we can enjoy the lake activities.

Not great
The outdoor area needed was not well maintained, weeds throughout the property and not a very big yard for the kids to play. The water was very weedy, not good for swimming. We arrived and the owner said we could rake the weeds out if we wanted, so we spent hours raking so the kids could swim. He never came back to clean up the piles of seaweed as he promised. We were also guaranteed a pontoon rental from him when we booked, but the week before we were notified it wasn’t working. The house itself was fine. The kitchen was lacking in supplies. Had issues connecting to the WiFi initially, wrong passwords were provided in a few spots but correct one as located on the modem which was in a difficult to locate place. The lake itself is nice, you can find good swimming in the deep spots but not in front of the house. I wouldn’t recommend the rental if you plan to swim off the dock.

Nice Place
Home was clean and well stocked. Was able to launch my boat at local DNR boat launch and tie to dock for my stay. Parking is very limited, but was able to make it work by disconnecting trailer from vehicle and moving aside. Overall not a bad place to rent for a family vacation close to my home.

It was a beautiful property to stay on! The only downside was the AC broke and it was 90 degrees all weekend so the inside of the house was 80 degrees both nights so it was a bit challenging to sleep.

Simply Amazing! A++ Experience
Our family really enjoyed staying here. The property is lake front, perfect 3 ft sandy depth for kids to play all day long. Kids really enjoyed kayaking while the dads enjoyed the aluminum fishing boat. Property is clean with all the amentities needed. The owner is super friendly and is only a call away if needed. I would recommend to all families looking for that upnorth feel without the long drive. We have rented through vrbo for close to 10 years and this is the best one we have been to yet! Thank you Joe, we will be in touch again for sure!

The owners of this property thought of everything and do their best to provide all you need for a vaction on the lake. The house was spotless when we arrived. Beds were all nicely made, extra blankets in the linen closets, many clean towels, great a/c system, working netflix and more on the large screen tv, and more. We had full use of 3 kayaks and 2 paddleboards plus a motorboat, on the lake which connects to other lakes. The nature in the area is beautiful and we spent much time out in the kayaks. Joe was available and helpful if we needed anything. I highly recommend this property for a family vacation.

Our family vacation
We all had such a wonderful four days together. The lake was so beautiful. The house accommodated all 15 of us perfectly. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect house and location. The house was clean, the beds were very comfortable, and we rented the pontoon boat from the owner, which made our trip very memorable. We definitely would recommend this lake house again and again for a family getaway or for a couple getaway. I know we would love to come back next year.
