Goldie Locks of Kingsley Lake!

This house is JUST RIGHT!! It is ultra clean and tidy - it's a great size, the beach area is perfect for smaller kids and the dock is little slice of heaven. These owners do a fantastic job of keeping the property in a great shape. It is so welcoming and we never wanted to leave.

So relaxing and fun.

This was our second trip here and was just as relaxing and pleasant as before. The hosts were great to work with and made everything so easy to use. The kids absolutely love swimming in the dock area and the amazing covered dock is where we spent most of the time when we weren’t on the water. We will definitely be back again!

Perfect family vacation❣️

Kingsley Lake is the perfect lake to enjoy if you like being outside and on and in the water! The dock for this property was absolutely perfect! You could enjoy being in the sun as well as being in the shade because both areas were provided. My only wish is that it could somehow accommodate a larger group… I have a family of 16 and only 2/3 of it could come this year… I would definitely come again❣️

This is the second year we have travelled to Kingsley Lake for our family summer vacation and second time staying at this awesome house. Rebecca was fantastic to communicate with prior, during and after our trip. She makes us feel right at home and the house is phenomenal. Plenty of room for our family of 6 and endless hours on the water!! Can’t wait to come back next year.

Great house and a really good dock.

We would stay again. We will ask host for a rake next time for stuff in lake. Some times it gathered in shallow end so would clean out but not there everyday. Depends on wind and wave action
