What a beautiful lakefront home. We found the lake views and the abundant birds in the backyard very peaceful. The neighbors were friendly. The home is lovely, and includes things like board games to make the stay cozy. The bathrooms could use renovations, but were functional enough for our purposes. The beds were comfortable. It’s clear this is a well loved vacation home, which is exactly what this app is supposed to be about. There were even nice extras like a bottle of wine and coffee left out for us. The host was friendly, prompt to respond, and even gave us a great restaurant recommendation. I would absolutely stay here again.

We had a great stay. House is as described. The house is a little tricky to find, the turn comes up quickly and looks like a driveway so just pay attention when pulling in. Beautiful view to the lake and I’m sure is an excellent place to relax once it gets a little warmer. Check in was easy and location was great for the family events we were in town attending.

Host was very accommodating to our party of 4 as we came from different directions and had to be somewhere on time. The home was very clean and quiet. Will plan a revisit during warm weather.

Truly a perfect home!!! It has a wonderful floor plan offering space for socializing and privacy, amazing views and plenty of parking. We enjoyed the home during our daughter’s wedding weekend. It provided a great layout for the bridal party to prepare for the special day along with beautiful interior features for pictures. We will definitely be back to enjoy the lake and convenient location. Thank you for sharing your home!

Immaculate lakefront cozy home close to great food and anything you need. Grocery store across the street, along with a pizza joint. The home itself is very clean and inviting. The host always responded promptly and with a warmt, you can tell the owners really want to make a good impression. Everything is new and top-of-the-line. New appliances (although we didn't cook), coffee and tea was provided. Our favorite place to hang was the indoor porch, equipped with a futon, large TV, games, and a dining table. Views of the lake all day. The outdoor firepit was wonderful (bring your own wood!) and sitting at the outdoor table next to it was lovely. We did take the kayaks out - two swans kept their distance but we enjoyed their company. The lake is peaceful and the foliage in October was top-notch. Beds were comfy, we did switch to the downstairs bedroom because we liked that bed better. Could comfortably sleep 6 for sure, but it was just my husband and I for the weekend. We loved breakfast sandwiches at the Bagel Factory 3 minutes down the road, and ate at a local mexican place which exceeded expectations.Overall, wonderful home, lovely time - thank you!

This home was so gorgeous! I want to buy it I loved it so much lol. It was very clean, a little hard to find especially arriving in the dark but not too bad. Waking up and walking out to the lake was so worth it! Very peaceful. The neighbors dog did wake us up Every morning we were there, didn’t enjoy waking up to his barking lol. The home itself was a perfect size, had everything we needed and more to enjoy the home and lake. Loved the cabin aesthetic on the bottom floor. We enjoyed making s’mores in the fire pit! The only con I would have to say would be the neighbors complaints. We were definitely trying to enjoy ourselves since it was a vacation and unfortunately they kept complaining to the owner, which I feel bad about. It wasn’t anything out of the ordinary, it wasn’t a huge party, we just had some family over for one night since we were visiting but that was definitely the only thing. The owner was nice and communication was great. The location was so close to everything, it was always 10 minutes away from everywhere we needed. Loved it!
