Beautiful Home
Beautiful home and property, with plenty of space for everyone to have their own space and privacy. Very clean, with a well stocked kitchen. Comfortable beds. Dock area was clean - lily pad was a nice addition. There is a 10/15 foot area before the lake that is a steep side walk, so be prepared, as it is not for the elderly or those with trouble walking. We were all late 30s to early 40s and struggled, but not enough to keep up from coming back! Already booked for next year!

Clean, very nice, beautiful lake. There are steps to lake because of the steepness of the land. Children loved the kayaks. House very nice. Loved the view from dining room- all lake. Everyone said they would like to come back.

Amazing Property
I couldn't have picked a better rental property. It accommodated all of my family. They had a Christmas tree which was perfect because we visited during the holidays. They had every amenity you could think of. We were not far from a local store. This property was beautiful and well decorated. Will book this property again.

Family Christmas vacation
We enjoyed our family holiday in your lovely home. The house was amazing and the location couldn’t have been better. We felt the house was top of the line and the kitchen had everything we could possibly need. The only small issue we had was the couches and chairs did not have that comfortable cozy, curl up in front of the fireplace feel. We plan on being back next year.

Everything was great! Plenty of room for 22 adults. It has all the cooking utensils you will need, well stocked with house hold items like toilet paper, trash bags. Some rooms dont have tvs and its hard exercise getting to and from the dock but its still a 10!

Great Property - October 12-15
Great weekend property, extended family with 4 kids and spouses plus 7 grandchildren. House had everything we needed for sleeping, cooking and outdoor activities. It was convenient for all our kids and close to a store in Arley if we forgot anything. Evans Marine and Dunkin Bridge Marina are close for pontoon boat rental. We’ll definitely rent again.

Perfection!
This house is a gem! We stayed here with our adult children and grandchildren and the house was perfect for us. It is much more spacious than we realized it would be- it was more space than we needed, but since it was such a good value we didn’t mind that at all. Our grandchildren loved the bunk room and the second floor game room (especially the arcade game!), and enjoying the lake with the kayaks. The kitchen is beautiful- I loved cooking on that range!! I also appreciated how comfortable all of the beds were and the cute reading area upstairs. The walk down to the dock wasn’t bad at all for how high the house is- they have done a great job breaking it up with some beautiful decks and patios, so honestly there aren’t actually that many stairs- and we actually used the decks more than the dock because of how pretty the views were and all the great outdoor furniture. All in all, this was a fantastic stay and we look forward to returning again in the fall!
