We had an absolutely amazing stay at Trout Pond! From the moment you arrive until the moment you leave, the experience is wonderful. The home is beautifully renovated while still keeping its cozy cottage charm. The lights leading to the dock make the whole area feel truly magical. It’s the perfect spot to relax, yet still close to so many great things to do.The real highlight, though, wasn’t just the house, it was the lovely Allen Trout. During our stay, we had a small issue with the air conditioner, and within 30 minutes Allen was at the house working to figure out the problem. He was so friendly, easy to talk to, and genuinely cared about making our stay comfortable.Allen is a big part of why we would absolutely stay again. 10/10 would recommend this beautiful space for your next trip!

Overall it was a sweet place to stay. When it described steps, there are lots of steps. I handled them well yet my wife has balance issues which posed minimal problems. She's used to it. Located at the end of the road and although obvious, the house mumber took a bit to locate. Be careful parking. No 'curbside' parking stops. Use better judgment than me!!! Instructions for locating included items very detailed and located on the refrigerator. They are a good immediate read. Need power plug in outside sitting area or i just didn’t locate it. Lighting diagram would make locating specific lights but there's not too many switches most can navigate easily enough. It was quite and peaceful for us. It was our 34th wedding anniversary. You are not far from civilization if anything is needed and many close by choices for eating out. Im sure we will be back!
Looking at the home from the dock.
Dining on the dock for near water enjoyment.
The beach area but not the best shot!

What a great spot. Photos don’t do it justice. Open floor plan on first floor, whole place tidy and comfortable. Such a private and relaxing view above the lake, from two different levels, the patio, and then the large upper deck. We saw turtles, heron, fireflies, and the fish were jumping. There’s a covered portion of the dock with a picnic table, and a separate floating dock with a swim ladder. Jumping in the lake is recommended!

Perfect Lake Getaway

The house is really cute! Decorated stocked well with necessities. It was the perfect location right on the lake. We did not get a chance to use the patio around that over looks the lake but it has these amazing rocking chairs on. I was so impressed with the bed I am on the hunt for a bed just like it for home. It was everything we could have asked for and we will definitely be back.

It’s hard to find an affordable place for a family of 5. The house was great and Allen was very responsive. There is a lot of stairs which is in the description so be aware of that. The house had everything we needed and the location is great. You’ll get some great sunsets here!
