Another enjoyable stay

We had another enjoyable stay at this property. Accommodations were comfortable, and the families enjoyed the boats, kayaks and rowboat, fishing, exploring the lake, and swimming from the dock. The tennis court was again a great feature. I spent much time sitting overlooking the lake reading, and only left the property one day to visit a nearby sculpture park!

House is as described. Very clean and keyless entry so check in went smoothly. Dock is very nice but as other reviews stated you won’t be able to swim from the dock, there is a lot of algae at the edge. We had a large party and house size was very nice. The kitchen was a bit small for our size group but had everything you could want, quite well stocked. Overall house pictures were very accurate. Tennis court and gym were nice to have. We enjoyed are week very much.

Perfect for groups!

We have four families that go away to different places every year and this was the best house so far! Plenty of room for all of us, quiet, and lots to do on the property. The only issue we had was wifi in the guest house but the host was very easy to contact and even came to the house to help restore it. It was a great stay!

Family Reunion

We used this house as well as 2 other homes in the neighborhood to meet for a family reunion. All the houses were clean and in close proximity to each other and the pond. The guest house for this property was a game changer, great size and space. The house had beautiful views of the lake and was clean! The room with the loft does not have AC, so that was tough because it was very warm in there.

Beautiful Labor Day Weekend

We rented this property for my husband’s whole family to get together and enjoy the end of the summer. We had 8 adults and a 2 year old, and the property was the perfect gathering spot for us all. The separate guest house was great for our niece to have a quiet place for her nap. We loved boating and swimming on the lake, and the property looked magical with the outdoor lights at night. I would highly recommend this property.
