About this property

Welcome to our 'Great Lake Escape'. This four season home offers exceptional panoramic views from most areas inside as well as outside on it's wrap around deck and expansive 450 ft of lake shore. 'Escape' today's fast-paced lifestyle or if you seek adventure, you can boat, ski, hunt, hike, fish, explore caves/and or casinos. The lakescape offers family friendly lake frontage that kids and adults are sure to enjoy. There's over an acre of yard, spacious wrap around decks and triple docks, allowing ample opportunities for outdoor fun. Location on a near point lot and idle zone of the lake keeps both street and lake traffic at a minimum. While there are many local attractions and nearby recreational opportunities to enjoy, guests comment most about amazing views of soaring bald eagles, blue herons, deer and wild turkeys; the relaxing sound of the horses hoofs clopping as they pull an Amish buggy across the causeway, the brilliance of the stars at night, and most of all---the perfect peace and indescribable quiet. From fishing to swimming to evening campfires, this is a place you will want to escape to time and time again.

Lovely setting

The property was clean and beautiful. The outdoor spaces were fantastic! The issues that we had were with uncomfortable sleeping arrangements. The bunk beds were very creaky and it made sleeping difficult. Also, if you closed the doors to the bedrooms they were super hot so we had to have all bedroom doors open which was not great for privacy or some people trying to sleep in

Great for large family

The property was great for our large family getaway. Between kids and adults it accommodated all 19 of us. The house was very clean, there was plenty of sleeping space for everyone and the lake views were wonderful. The home is secluded and private but still only a 10 min drive to the grocery and convenient stores. We had a wonderful weekend. I really don’t have any complaints except one thing. All of the bedrooms are on the second floor. Getting up and down the stairs was a little difficult for my elderly grandparents. We made due, but I think it would be helpful to put that in the property listing so others are aware. The only option for downstairs sleeping was the couch or roll away beds, which wouldn’t have worked well for some people. But overall the house was perfect for our large crew and we will likely be back!

House is super accommodating!

We stayed at this house for an extended-family trip. The house has everything you need, the hostess is a lovely person and very communicative and helpful and the view from the home is breathtakingly pretty. All the said, however, if you’re into water sports or desire a lake to play in... Boggs Lake is not it. We are a very active family who loves to be in the water and we’re really disappointed with the Lake itself. It was overgrown with algae due to the heat, so it could have been a seasonal issue. If you just want to enjoy a beautiful lake view, go in a boat ride, fish and not go into the water... perfect spot.

Great lake house

The house had just about everything we could have wanted except electricity at the boat dock. We had to run over 100 feet of extension cords to charge our boat batteries. The only other negative is that there wasn't a fish cleaning station and we didn't find out until after our arrival that they had demolished the fish cleaning building in the adjacent park where we have cleaned fish in the past. But it looks like they are going to rebuild the cleaning building in the park so this will be a short-lived problem. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a very nice place to have several people for a lake outing. The location and views are outstanding and the property is well kept. A couple of small negatives wouldn't keep me from giving it a five star rating overall.

Broken Furnace

We were unable to stay the weekend due to a broken furnace. We are in the process of being refunded our money. We have received about 75% of the money VRBO is withholding part of the money. We do plan on using this rental in the summer.
