Great lake get away

We really enjoyed our stay. Home is at an amazing location, right on Songo Pond. Boats and life jackets were wonderful. Property was clean and worked for our group perfectly. Check in was easy.

Labor Day weekend

We had a great time boating and enjoying this lakeside home. The house was clean inside, and spacious as pictured. We also loved visiting Screw Auger Falls and Moose Caves…just a short drive away. I suggest that there be more kitchen towels available as well as washcloths in the bathrooms. The outside of the home could’ve used some cleanup as well.

Perfect spot and house

The house is lovely and comfortable, very nice kitchen, great room and sun porch. The lake was wonderful with warm water for swimming, good fishing and easy access to kayak/paddle with the small beach entry and dock.

Peaceful

Totally enjoyed this comfortable and lovely home on the pond. The porch and view made for very wonderful lounging. Day trips were easy from this destination. Everything that I needed during my stay was right there for it to be a home away from home for me.

Great Family Getaway Spot

Spacious, clean modern cottage with all the amenities for a week long stay. Kitchen is well equipped. Situated on a quiet dirt road with pond frontage. The pond is great for kayaking, canoeing and paddle boarding. Not great for swimming, although we did it anyway. Shallow entry point with invasive grass and lily pads.
