Peaceful and Serene

Had a wonderful time at Sofana on the Lake. Relax on the deck or one of the lounge chairs and swing in the backyard. House is spacious and our family had lots of space to spread out or be together. The sauna was a special treat. Host responds quickly and is very accommodating. Thank you for a great vacation.

Quite Cozy Relaxing House on the Lake

House was large enough for all of us and is very kid friendly. The location just off the main lake worked out well with 2 boats as they were protected from any harsh weather. The house has plenty of room for everyone and is close to town along with stores. Owner had quick responses to all of our questions.

The house is as advertised, very nice and spacious. We had 11 stay comfortably and happily. The neighborhood is great and direct neighbors are very friendly. We had a great time using the kayaks, playing in the lake, speeding around on our small boat, and renting from the marina. Only complaint is the surrounding area does not provide much entertainment, food options, shopping, etc. Pine Lake the neighborhood is beautiful. The house is beautiful. The neighbors are fantastic. Just wish there were more in the direct surrounding area.

Amazing experience

The house was perfect for 3 families all with kids. The ping pong/pool table were a hit with the adults and older kids. Huge yard with plenty of room for kids of all ages. We rented a boat from a local marina so having the dock in the backyard was perfect. The experience with the owner was great to. She was extremely helpful and always answered any questions that I had before our trip.

Paradise on the Lake

Great experience the house was ideal for our large family. The one thing that would have helped access to the porch door leading to the front parking. Plenty to do both at the house and in town ate at Around the Clock three times. Met the neighbor Frank and two of us being retired Navy we’ll need I say more. Thumbs up would recommend this vacation to anyone who asked me. Thanks

Friend Getaway

We were looking for a weekend getaway for 5 adult couples and a boat. Safona on the Lake was the perfect place for us. The house is spacious, clean, and and the lake is perfect for swimming and skiing. We sat outside, which offers plenty of seating and a fire pit. However this weekend was very warm so we also spent a lot of time indoors. We were able to play pool, ping-pong and sit in in the hot tub. We really enjoyed our stay and are thinking of booking for next year!
