Great Family Getaway

We loved the whole experience! Great house, yard, and lake. We rented the pontoon boat as well. The house had everything we needed including kitchen accommodations, deck seating, and water toys. The host was great and communication was always quick. Highly recommend this property!

A great little lake!

We had a great time at this lake house. The small beach was ideal for our kids to play safely, and there were plenty of outdoor and indoor accommodations to keep everyone entertained, including a great game room. The place was clean and updated, making our large group feel comfortable and at home. We're already looking forward to planning our next visit!

Great House with Beach

We stayed with a group of 8, including two kids. We all enjoyed the house and the sandy beach. Plenty of yard games and fishing to keep everyone happy. The house itself is very nice and the layout works well for families, with bedrooms and bathrooms split on two levels.

4 generation family vacation

We had a wonderful time on our family vacation, with 4 generations, staying at Ed’s house. We also rented his pontoon boat and went playing and fishing on the lake. The kids loved the sand beach area, and we loved that the water near the dock and out from the sand was shallow with a gradual depth increase, it made us feel much more safe with the little kids playing in the water. We had fun riding the kayaks, and the kids loved the Lilly pad that was in the shed. The game room was stocked with lots of fun games we could play together as a family. Over all, this place was fantastic, Ed was great!!!! We are already looking forward to return trips!!!

Friend Vacation

One of the reasons that we chose this property was due to boat availability which was offered by manager. A week before the vacation, we were notified that the boat rental was not available due to issues with insurance/lawyers. Very disappointed as that was one of the must haves when we were looking to rent.

Great place

My family really enjoyed their stay! This had one of the best stocked kitchens weve experienced and a lot of extras like several serving spoons and spatulas. A lot of thought was put into this house..there are night lights perfectly placed for kids and hard floors downstairs for coming in from the beach. Both decks were great to use with awesome views. It had lots of seating and beds had comfortable pillows. Very quiet and big lake. The house has a pier and sandy beach front along with a fire pit. A lot of extra bonuses. The owner was very responsive and messaged to make sure we had everything. This had everything we hoped for with

Great lake house

This was a wonderful location for our family reunion. We had nine adults and three babies/toddlers. Ed was very helpful at communicating, and replied right away to any questions that I sent. We spent several happy days just hanging around the lake. The shed is well stocked with beach, yard, and water toys – and two kayaks – which we enjoyed. We cooked dinner on the grill and enjoyed games, eating and resting on the plentiful deck seating. One day, we went to the Binder Park zoo, but the rest of our 5-day stay we were very happy just relaxing by the lake, which was peaceful and not overcrowded or noisy. The kitchen is updated and well-stocked, and a pleasure to cook in. The lower level game room is in process now, and looks like it will be very fun once it's finished. The bunk room could hold a family-full of kids. The fifth bedroom is more of an alcove off of one of the other bedrooms, so it didn't work as well for us as a full bedroom for an independent family, but we used it for a baby in a pack-and-play. So glad we found this home!

Peaceful and relaxing

Neighborhood is very quiet. We just went there to relax and take in sunshine, so it was exactly what we needed. It was just my hubby and me, so we just sat on the upper deck and played games most of the time like we enjoy. Although we never went in the water, if you like going in the water, there's a decent size sand area for entering/exiting the water. Plenty of seating outside including lounge chairs and a comfy sofa for watching movies inside. Kitchen has all the amenities you'd expect for a VRBO rental. Bedroom has a ceiling fan, which was a big plus because we like a fan at night. Lots of closet space, linens were clean, beds comfy yet firm enough and pillows were plush. It's a small town with a family owned grocery, a couple gas stations, and a dollar store. We had forgotten a few grocery items and everything was 5 minutes away. It's plenty of space for a few couples, a family, or a group of friends. Ed is very nice and was very responsive when we had questions.
