Absolutely Perfect Fall Getaway!Our stay was amazing from start to finish. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and stocked with thoughtful extras that made it feel like a true retreat. Every room offered a cozy touch — from soft blankets and a fully equipped kitchen to games, books, and even little conveniences you don’t always find in rentals.The setting couldn’t have been more perfect for fall — the lake shimmered with reflections of colorful leaves, and mornings on the deck with a cup of coffee felt peaceful and private. The sunsets over the water were breathtaking, and we loved using the outdoor fire pit in the crisp evening air.This home truly goes above and beyond. You can tell the owners take great pride in making guests feel welcome and comfortable. We left feeling refreshed, grateful, and already planning our next visit!

First, I'd like to say the house was very nice, clean, comfortable & well stocked. The lake is another story. The day before the start of vacation/arrival, we received notice from the Host that the lake had E coli! For over 10 yrs we've always rented lake waterfront properties & have never had this issue. We know the Host had no control over this & was glad they warned us. The lake was closed from Saturday to Wednesday. This was more than disappointing as there was no swimming, kayaking or paddle boarding for us. This is not a lake we'd want to return to.
Updated, clean, well stocked property directly on lake in quiet neighborhood. Our family enjoyed the back deck with serene views, foosball table in the basement, and hot tub. Host was communicative and quick with responses. Nearby town of Lee was quaint and offered abundant restaurant options.

Winter getaway
Property very nice - loved the fireplace which was necessary due to cold temps and very windy conditions. Cooked dinner each night and kitchen very well equipped. Beds comfortable. Enjoyed hot tub once but then became too windy to use.

beautiful lake house
We had a great stay at this comfortable, spacious, lovely home. The home was clean, uncluttered and tastefully appointed. The hot-tub was well maintained. Everything was as promised. We were impressed by Dakota and staff at Meadow Homes. Will definitely be back!
