GREAT LAKE VIEW

Enjoyed our stayed. Location, views, wildlife and firepit are great. Don't recommend upstairs bedroom for elderly or young child, has steep spiral staircase and home has only one shower which is very small in lower bedroom. But would overall recommend and stay again.

Amazing stay! We have been to Lake of Egypt multiple times and this was our favorite spot by far. Our host was incredible and so easy to communicate with. We loved all the lake accessories provided and spent every moment by the water. The house was clean and had everything we needed. We will be back! You can’t beat the hospitality provided and felt very accommodated. Thank you so much for creating a beautiful space to make memories that will last forever!

Wonderful weekend stay

The property was great and Vickey was very responsive to any questions we had. Our kids enjoyed swimming in the lake, playing on the lily pad, and using cicadas as bait for fishing. House was comfortable and well stocked. We had a fantastic time and would highly recommend this property!
