Landers Lakehouse
We had a great time!! Listing is 100% accurate! Clean and cozy! Beautiful location! Plenty of dock space for fishing and we loved that the cabin came with kayaks! My daughter fell in love with the chess set, now I have to find one just like it to purchase 😆 We would definitely book this cabin again in the future.

No itinerary relaxation
Comfy cottage. Secluded setting with very little activity on the lake. Close enough to towns if you want to go out for a meal or pickup a few things. Only left the cottage 3 times in a week long stay as kayaking, fishing, campfires, and porch-sitting were exactly what we all needed.

Nice lake house
We enjoyed our stay. The lake was very nice and peaceful. It was great having the kayaks available to use and enough for everyone in our family of 5. The house was small and a little older but was clean and cozy. We loved the porch and spent a lot of time there or kayaking. I personally could have used a little more cook wear in the kitchen, but we primarily cook rather than eating out. Overall we would stay here again if in the area.

Nice get away
The house is cute and had everything you needed. My only issue was the bedroom TV was very difficult to manage with having to deal with an app. It didn’t end up working so we really weren’t able to use it at all. Everything was great.

Weekend Getaway
We loved the place. Perfect size for 5 people. Beds and pillows were comfortable. Outside is amazing. The lake is so peaceful and beautiful. We loved the kayaks. They were easy to get in and out of the lake. You can see all the stars at night. We made a fire by the lake. We saw all kinds of animals. Lots of bunnies. The neighbor's dog visited and was so playful and friendly. We will definitely be back.

This was one of my favorite stays away from home. The place was full of rustic charm and hospitality while providing a beautiful scenery, a relaxing atmosphere, and fun and adventure right in your own front yard. A great little getaway, and yet close to many day trip adventures. This questionnaire may have only received 4/5 stars due to the questions asked, but my actual stay receives 5/5 stars… it was just what we needed!

Great for a small family.
The boys loved the dock. The husband enjoyed going out back to fish. The wife loved the beautiful view. Even though cabin was small, it worked well for the four of us. Wished there would’ve been a washer & dryer. But the local laundry mat was very nice!! Also wished there would have been extra towels to dry off from being in the lake. Overall, great, relaxing time!!

Quaint
Your cottage was lovely. We enjoyed kayaking and swimming and the quiet vibe of the area. If you are looking for quiet and relaxation- this is the spot for you. The hill is a little steep, so if you have physical limitations- this may be an issue for you. The lake bottom is rocky (kids wore crocs and were fine) and gets deep quick (could be an issue for little ones)- but over all, the lake was clean and quiet and so nice not having to deal with big motor boats. fantastic for a long weekend. the porch and the view were AMAZING!

Great peaceful rustic cabin
We enjoyed our stay. We spent most of our time on the porch looking at the lake and watching wildlife. It was very relaxing and peaceful. The cabin is old but overall has been well maintained. The gravel road getting to the cabin could be tricky for low profile cars. We had a truck and had no issues.

Landers Lakehouse is a very quiet and peaceful getaway. My only issue was the dog that was always around. We couldn’t eat outside as planned as the dog was always wanting food. Other then that very peaceful and relaxing.

Nice and quiet
Overall our stay was great. Just when i took a shower i almost fell the mat that was in the shower had something slimy on it. And the grill wasnt clean but the utensils inside of it was clean.So we had to clean it before using it. And the microwave went out when we plugged up the lights on the porch. So we went the whole night without it which was inconvenient because i dont eat until late night.

Nice with needed upgrades
The back patio was fantastic. The only exception is there is no safety railing. It's a decent size Hill to fall off from the patio. I do not recommend for older adults or younger children. The house itself was clean and nice. The bathroom desperately needs upgrades and a really good cleaning. Even a new shower curtain would help. The lake and the fire pit are quite a walk. We are older ladies that got together for a girls weekend and nobody could make it down to the beach or to the fire pit. We really didn't mind as we so enjoyed the back porch! The scenery is beautiful. A very well needed and relaxing weekend. The road there is very tricky. This is not the owner's fault but there's a washout gully that is very hard to navigate. Parking was ample. Kitchen was very well stocked. They had everything we needed and more. The grill could definitely use a really good cleaning. It appeared they had a fish cleaning station but that also needs a good cleaning. All in all we did enjoy our stay. Owners communicated very well. I guess my only complaint would be the safety issues with the back porch, and upgraded bathroom desperately needed, and too much of a hill to get to the lake or the fire pit for us "gray hairs" but we all still enjoyed the stay

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
We stayed from aug 2-5. Quiet loved the back porch, rocking chairs. My husband and girl fished from the dock and shore. Caught a couple of little fish and the tree a lot. the lakehouse was cozy. Does need some updates, especially the bathroom. Mold on the ceiling amd caulk of tub. Its a little hard getting in and out of tub, but we managed. Part of the shower head didn't seem to work, my husbamd couldn't figure it out either and he can work anything. The shower faucet also drips, which is a pet peeve of mine and drives me insane. Lots of duck tape patch work around the house also. Other than those small things which would be simple fixes, it was great. We did not use the boat or kayaks as this property is close to the dam and my husband refused to allow us in the water. The row boat was left seats up and was filled with water and sludge, so my husband didn't want to deal with that either. Make sure you drive super slow as the ruts in the gravel road are horrible. Awd and 4wd are best, as you have to back in and out of the driveway and it is on an incline. Angilos pizza of verona does not have good pizza. Try their subs or fish, thats what the locals were eating..wish we had known. we also ate at boonedocks which was pretty good and we hit dave and busters. Great location to the ark..which we found expensive and boring, we did love the virtual reality at the ark, not included in your ticket. however we enjoyed the creation museum and the planetarium also not included.
