The living and dining rooms were great spaces for our group. The house could use some updating, but for what we needed it was great!

Great space for a large family

Second time we’ve stayed there for a family event and the house works very well for us. It’s not fancy but it is clean and functional and very economical. Great outdoor space for games on the grass and hanging out on the porch. Our only feedback would be to provide more outdoor chairs as there are only 7 and the house sleeps 16. We recommend and we’ll probably be back again!

No frills, large space

If you need a lot of rooms to accommodate a lot of people and don’t need anything fancy, this place is great. Short walk to the lake and towels/linens were provided.

Perfect for our large group. The price was right, the pillows were wonderful, plenty of towels, and a well apportioned kitchen.

Comfortable Large Home with Character

A group from our office spent 2 nights here for an annual holiday retreat together. We loved this unique home, and its 9 bedrooms was just the size we needed. The home was extremely clean and was furnished with all of the basic supplies. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking meals, and the large dining area enabled our whole team and spouses to eat together comfortably. It was a chilly weekend but the front porch is beautiful and inviting. The location is easy to access and there is adequate parking. The ad should be updated to remove the fireplace as that has been covered, and more dining room chairs would better accommodate the large groups that can comfortably stay in this home. We will definitely consider this property in the future.

Good youth retreat place.

Our family has rented this place twice since it's one of the few places that will accommodate all of us in one place. Actually more house than we need but room for the grandkids to run around & not worry about breaking anything. The large eating area is perfect for meals and other family activities. This house is very dated as far as the bathroom facilities and kitchen. Only one upstairs bath has a shower, otherwise claw tubs. No TV or radio in the bedrooms. Great for youth retreats or a group needing just the basics - no frills. Love the large porch with rockers for relaxing!

Good priced house

Online payment was easy. Quick reply when asking a question. We replace a door lock to a bathroom due to it not working. Older home but over clean.

Well loved older home for large group

Older home with large kitchen and dining area for group. Several small bedrooms allow for all to have their own privacy. Quaint quirky bathrooms are functional and clean. We took a church leadership team for a retreat and had tons of fun playing games, cooking and connecting.

Great large group space

We stayed here for a church retreat. This home serves great as a house for large family get-together or retreat. It is well appointed and has all items you need with the exception of glassware. Plenty of place settings and coffee mugs for large groups, but glassware was lacking in comparison (just bring disposable). House does show its age a little, but is clean and comfortable. There are plenty of linens, and a great outside area with short walk to the lake. Make sure you keep door code on you at all times when you exit the home. You do have to go up stairs to enter the home, so be aware of that for mobility purposes. I will book this place again for a retreat.

Good size for our family gathering. Needs some work on doors and windows - all leak significantly, and height of commodes are very low to the floor and difficult for older adults. The dining area was a very nice gathering spot with seating for our entire family.

Bad condition

There's a lot of beds but that's it! Only one small TV in the livingroom, most bathroom doors don't lock, bad flooring, no decor and with no hot tub, games, etc. makes a long couple days!

Great gathering place

Although this property is well-loved, it is the perfect place for a gathering of friends who like to be together for meals, conversation and rest. The kitchen accommodates many cooks, there is setting in the dining room for 16 and the living room is comfortable. The bath rooms a re a bit quirky, yet they provide what is needed. Beautiful porch. Lovely setting.
