Too many concerns this year
Our family returned to this house this summer after a fun week last year. Unfortunately, this visit was met with many challenges. When we arrived, there was nowhere to store our rented boat- personal boats that were not there last summer were taking up all the spaces. (The owner knew we rented a boat again, as he had to submit a letter in order for us to receive a permit for Lake Summit.) When we reached out to ask about this, his solution was to tie a boat to the front of the dock which is the only swimming area. We voiced frustration, and the response was, "I appreciate your visit. I'm happy to refund your stay. Please look at the bright side. You chose to return." This is not an appropriate response to someone paying a lot to rent your property.Other issues that arose were electrical safety- a broken bulb in a bathroom that sparked when the switch was on, shower heads did not work, and the dock was in serious need of repair- broken steps, splintering wood that got into many children's feet, and raised nails and screws. These are sizable problems on their own, and once added up, they are unacceptable for such a pricey rental property. It's a shame because the house had been a great fit for our family, but there were too many negative aspects this year to give a positive review.

Camp Mamie 2022
Fabulous location on a lake that is dear to my heart for my children and grandchildren. How is big and comfortable- basically well supplied kitchen. The housekeeping could have been better - not one roll of TP in any bathroom to start and no blankets on most of beds. There were several instances of roaches and one toilet that needed a plumber. Ice maker didn’t make ice in either the big one or the refrigerator. Kershaw was informed of all this and responded quickly but was unable to fix the ice problem. A plumber did come to fix toilet. The house has a great history - but suffers from lack of maintenance on the outside and we had to hammer down a bunch of boards on boathouse deck. All in all everyone had a greta time - yard is fabulous and the kids caught lots of fireflies. Blinds on the main level bedrooms would be nice - mainly for privacy.

Wonderful 5 days in a unique, spacious lake home with lots of character. Bedding and kitchen were very good. Plenty of room for meals and gathering spots. Fireplace was a big plus. Wonderful hilltop views of Lake Summit.

Beautiful property on Lake Summit
This is a beautiful piece of property directly on Lake Summit. It has beautiful views of the lake that can be seen from the main rooms, bedrooms, patio, deck, walking paths, and of course the dock. This is an older home that seems to have a lot of family history, plus an updated kitchen and some bathrooms. The home accommodated our large (12 adults) group very nicely. Our group brought some bikes and borrowed some that were available in the garage. We thoroughly enjoyed the 9 mile ride around the lake. Some of the group hiked at DuPont State Park. The only thing that could have been nicer were the bed and bath linens…they were long past their prime. Overall we had a great long weekend and we would highly recommend this lovely property.

Friends-cation weekend
We had an excellent time, minutes the torrential downpours and some minor issues. Details that do not need to be shared publicly as the owner was very communicable. Beautiful setting, I would suggest smaller groups, unless vacationing with family. Friends or not, couples sharing bathrooms is uncomfortable.

One-of-a-kind Property
The house and property are a quirky, fun and interesting place to stay! It's an older lakehouse that has obviously been added to over the years. To start, there are a few less than positive reviews but I think perhaps the reviewers are used to more modern properties that are easier to clean. Overall the house was clean and ready for renters. My super-picky crew was happy here. There were a few other comments about some of the rooms not having blinds -- that wasn't an issue for any of my family either. The owner -- Kershaw LeClerq -- was more than helpful with assisting us with the few issues we encountered. NOTE: if you message him through VRBO, part of the phone number may change to written numbers. One of the challenges with renting this house was figuring out the layout. So here goes: There are two bedrooms (1 with two full beds and 1 with a queen) on the top floor with a full bath in one of them. On the main floor, there are four bedrooms (3 with queen/king beds and 1 with twins). These four bedrooms share two jack-and-jill bathrooms. There is also the tiniest half bath on the main floor -- think airplane bath but smaller. The two big bedrooms are the ones without blinds. There is another bedroom in the basement and a bed in the main room -- so basically two rooms down there. These two sleeping spaces share two half baths -- one with toilet/sink and another with a shower/sink. There is plenty of other sleeping space in the house. With a blow-up bed or two, it could easily sleep 15 or so but not sure if that's allowed. There are several a/c zones so you can put your like-minded temperature people on floors together. We had the ones who like it hot on the top floor, the mid-temp people on the main floor and the snow breaths in the basement. The stars of the show are the awesome deck, the main rooms (living room and dining room) and the dock. All of these spaces were terrific for congregating and spending much-needed, post-covid time together as a family. The steps down to the dock are a little tricky so be careful how many adults beverages you have before you tackle those. On the fun side, we rented the pontoon boat and had an afternoon booze cruise every day!!! There were also plenty of water toys including paddleboards and kayaks that were available for our use. Overall, it's a terrific property for a big group getaway. Something super fun would be to have a murder mystery game going on because there are a TON of places to hide.

Wonderful stay
We had a wonderful 5 night stay at Kershaw’s place. We had 8 adults and 8 kids and the house blew away our expectations. Everything you could possibly need the house has. We did it all, used the pontoon boat(very affordable added bonus), fire pit, spike ball in the open grass area, brand new grill, etc. Kershaw was very responsive when we had questions. We couldn’t have scripted a better weekend for the wedding we attended at Camp Greystone. Make sure you’re well conditioned because you will get a great work out going up and down the stairs to the dock. I can’t recommend this place enough. I’ve read other reviews about bug issues at the house but we didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary. Thanks Kershaw!
