Siblings at Johnson lake

This property was great! We had a nice time with our siblings and spouses checking out the lake and the nearest brewery. The house had everything we needed which made cooking easy with a well appointed kitchen, big table to eat at and play games. The beds were comfortable and having five bedrooms gave us room for all the family. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return again.

Best Rental Ever Stayed!

The cabin is beautiful and clean with every amenity you need and more. We were a family of 7 and enjoyed the view of Bossung Lake. We loved kayaking and fishing. The owner was very responsive to all questions and was local in case we needed anything. She was a delight to talk to and learn the history of the cabin and the others around. The neighborhood kitty, Felix, came to say and wanted lots of love. We hope to be back soon and make more memories.

Little Slice of Heaven

I am blown away by how wonderful this property was to stay at and how wonderful the hosts were! First of all, the beauty of the views from both the front and back of the home are astounding. This property was incredibly clean, spacious and well supplied far beyond what any of us could have expected. Toiletries, food, condiments, life jackets, kayaks, bikes, towels galore, the hot tub, grill and fire pit (all amazing!), badminton, croquet and a variety of balls for the kids. Also, every bedroom had a television and the internet worked wonderfully the entire time, including the surround sound in the living room. The hosts were super responsive and friendly. We ran out of propane one night while grilling and a gentleman arrived within minutes to install a new tank. Talk about service! Medo’s restaurant was also a great recommendation by the host and we also enjoyed renting jet skis. The lake was clean and beautiful and the surrounding community was quiet and equally lovely. I would love to live here, honestly! The lake is close to and easily accessible from the backyard for kayaks, but not too close to where I was extremely worried about my toddler running off and hopping into the water. The backyard is huge and grassy and just lovely for playing and relaxing in. All in all, I cannot recommend this place highly enough and I hope we can come back soon.

Everything was great! Was hoping that we could be a bit closer to the water although with infants and small children it was probably safer. There were some problems with the refrigerator, although the owner brought out a repair man immediately. The house was very clean and had everything in it that we needed.

Awesome Cabin!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cabin! The cabin was very clean and was ready at check-in. Theresa was a great host and was very quick in responding to all of our questions. We enjoyed taking the kayaks out on the lake and driving the golf cart to the local beach. Even though the days were hot, we were still able to enjoy the hot tub in the shade. This is a wonderful property and would highly recommend staying here!
