Rustic cabin get away
Beautiful lake, cabin was semi-clean, needs a deep clean. Cabin has a strong, musty mothballs smell( not pleasant in my opinion). For the price that we paid per night, I felt that firewood should be included. We had some cold, rainy days and the inside electric fire sound like it was going to blow up so we had to turn the stove on to warm up the place. Barbeque that they provided was not in good repair and was full of cigarette butts.

Great view of the lake.
Wonderful time at Hathaway House. The cabin was very cozy and clean and lots of space with a beautiful view of the lake. So glad to have family time away from the big city. I would certainly recommend this cabin to friends and family.

Unable to visit due to wildfires
Due to the wildfires in the area and the evacuation alerts/orders in the area, we were unable to visit the property. We waited to see if the orders would be lifted, but they were not. Lynne was most helpful and communicative throughout and kept us informed of the situation. We will rebook and try to visit in the future.

Fall fishing trip
We used the cabin for a fall fishing trip. Our fishing was cut short due to snow but the cabin kept us warm and dry. Thank you Lynne it was a great stay.

Great communication
We stayed during the winter season for icefishing and the house was right on the lake which was perfect. We had some issues (not regarding the property) and when I contacted the owner she was able to come out and save our butts! I am truely thankful for her help!

Great place for a lakeside holiday
We had a really nice stay here. The place is huge. We're a family of four and we had loads of room. The standout feature for me was the wrap around balcony on the main level. You can barbecue and take in a grand view of the lake from there. My 10 year old really liked the kids room in the basement, and my 12 year old spent a lot of time fishing around the dock. He caught quite a few fish, too. The firepit in the yard was another highlight, and a great place for everyone to go after the sun went down. Communication with the owners was great, although honestly I didn't need to communicate with them about much. Everything went smoothly. The hardest part was finding all the light switches when we moved in. Even that was kind of fun..

Great place to stay. Large space.
Loved the lake and the size of the property. The kitchen could have a few more things (spices, tin foil etc). No stairs down to dock could be problematic if you have a baby or have trouble walking at all. Great lake and loved the canoe.

Lake Hathaway getaway
Great VRBO! Excellent value in this property! The stairs down to the dock need a little work. The dock is awesome and new. This property and lake is very quite and a great gas station and store is only 15 mins away. If you want a great vacation that’s nice a quiet I recommend you book this wonderful place.

Fun for all ages!
The cabin is cozy and spacious with various areas to sleep in. An added bonus was the kids area downstairs where they could play games and romp around. The lakefront view was spectacular, especially during a couple of thunder storms at night where we would view the lighting under the covered deck. The kids loved hanging out on the dock with two ducks that visited daily. Not to mention catching dragonflies,frogs and fishing for minnows. They even have a canoe that we were able to enjoy. The fish weren’t biting as much as we would have liked but we did manage to have three fish dinners during our one week stay. They were delicious. Best we’ve ever had in fact. We had a few visits from a friendly fox and even caught glimpses of a local bear. Overall, we had a wonderful experience. Highly recommended. Thank you Lynn and Henry. We hope to make it back next year.
