Beautiful Lake House

This was our second time at this beautiful lake house. The house is large and spacious and nicely decorated. The beds are very comfortable. The kitchen has everything needed for meals. The sunroom is cozy, with great views of the lake where you can see beautiful sunsets while eating dinner. The game room downstairs is amazing! There is something for everyone to enjoy, young and old. The owner is very quick to respond, and very helpful and accomodating. I definitely recommend this house, you won't be disappointed!! We are hoping to return again!

Beautiful Lakehouse

My friends and I loved staying at Janine’s lake house. The views from the dining room and outside relaxing on the lawn are great. Comfortably slept 8 adults. Fun game room. Excellent location close to hiking and river tubing (check out Lou’s tubes)! Beautiful house for some quality time together.

Fabulous House on the Lake

Such a cozy lakefront home with beautiful views of the lake. We were greeted with a Welcome Basket full of goodies, wine, even a dog toy for our dog, and a beautiful bouquet of flowers! My family and I felt right at home the minute we walked thru the front door and enjoyed our time tremendously! The game room in the basement was fabulous and enjoyed by all. The homeowner was Always Quick to Respond to any questions and very helpful. The house was very clean. I recommend this house; you will not be disappointed. We are already planning another visit!

Beautiful property!

Both the house and lake are absolutely gorgeous! The big sunroom has amazing views of the lake, as do two of the bedrooms. Plenty of outdoor seating on patio and by firepit overlooking the water. We were three families with kids ranging from 4 months- 9 years old and there was something for everyone. Very close by, there is a beach for swimming with a bar/restaurant ($5 cash admission). Janine was very communicative and responsive!

Gorgeous Lake House

The property is beautiful and well maintained, there is a lot of space for hanging out, playing games, and the outdoor amenities are awesome. We thoroughly enjoyed the sunroom everyday, it was possibly the best view I've had in all my vacation stays. There were some minor hiccups but were addressed by the property manager. Customer service was great! Overall, it was a hit for all the guests and we'd 100% return.

Great stay at the Lake House

We loved our time here! The view is awesome, the house itself is lovely and well cared for, and there are so many thoughtful touches for guests to really enjoy their stay. We used the kayaks, pedal boat, fire pit, all the games downstairs - and the board games in the sun room. We were sad to leave, but on our way out we saw an eagle soaring across the lake… such a great send off! Thank you for the generous welcome basket, and the birthday greetings for my son! He was so surprised :) We really appreciated all your efforts to make our stay special in this wonderful home!

Unhinged owner

Unhinged owner claimed we scratched up the neighbor’s jerks with zero proof. The place clearly needs some upkeep but she blamed us for breaking an air hockey table we didn’t even touch. She also barged into the house 2 hours after our check in and was creaming on the phone with someone downstairs, we would get daily texts pestering us about minute details and got the sense we were being watched constantly. It’s a nice house but stay far away.

Family Wedding at Mountain View Manor

Excellent location, close to venue. Very clean, Bright, open, well kept, nice linens, towels, excellent pillows and bedding. Lots of room. Lake was beautiful, very clean and kayaks were much appreciated. Eagles were amazing, saw woodchucks also. Many deer. Very quiet area which is awesome. Would recommend that you bring food and drink if you plan on staying in, as stores are a bit of a drive away. My only regret is that we did not stay a few days longer to really explore the area. I would not hesitate to book again

Wonderful Trip

This house has it all. We had an amazing time. The location is fantastic and the Views! The weather wasn't the greatest but that is where the game room came into play. Our ping pong and air hockey skiils have improved. We also did hiking to a water fall nearby. We did get to spend one day on the water. We swam, kayaked, and fished. The out side is as great as the inside. We even got to watch bald eagles flying around! Plenty of room for a family of 9. Sitting and dining! Bed and baths were very modern. Hot water was plentiful. The pictures don't do it justice. The host was very welcoming. We are planning on returning!

Spectacular view- even better home!

From the moment we pulled up to this beautiful home we felt like it was going to be a great mini vacation. Step in through the doors and the calming scent of mahogany makes you feel like you’re home. The house is decorated beautifully and the welcome basket was perfect and very much appreciated. The pictures do not do this home justice. The sunroom towards the back of the house has a spectacular view of the entire lake. The beds were comfortable and even the linens were soft and luxurious! The game/workout area in the basement kept our kids entertained and happy for the duration of our stay. The kitchen was fully equipped for our families. The home’s caretakers TC and Janine were a quick text or phone call away and helped us with every question or need we had. They outdid themselves with all the little touches throughout the home, from a variety of k-cups to real flower arrangements. We have already begun discussing our next stay over the summer! Don’t hesitate to rent this home!

A welcoming and beautiful lake house

All of us exclaimed a version of "wow!" when we entered the house, greeted by a subtle and therapeutic scent and a thoughtful welcome basket filled with snacks for everyone and cold beverages in the fridge. The house was so nicely and warmly decorated and very well kept and clean. The large kitchen had nice appliances and had literally every tool you need to cook and bake. We knew we would be cooking for 9 people so we brought large pots and pans, but other than that, the well organized kitchen had everything we could possibly need. The view of the lake from the sunroom was gorgeous and even had two binoculars. The board/card games in the sunroom were plentiful and there was a variety for many age groups to enjoy. Oh and the gameroom in the basement!! All of the four kids ages 11-16 in our group thoroughly enjoyed it for hours everyday and we were so happy they were off their personal devices and having a great time with eachother. But when they (and the grown-ups!) did go on our laptops and phones, the connection was excellent (mooah! chef's kiss). There were usb/outlet ports placed thoughtfully through out the house and hallway night lights for everyone's safety. Communication with Janine was always prompt, well explained and very pleasant. There were so many thoughtful touches all around the house to make sure the guests are comfortable. We can't wait to visit during the warmer months!

Best way to enter my 30s!

My friends and I recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming lakehouse, and I cannot rave enough about our incredible experience! As a group of eight adults, we were looking for a place that could comfortably accommodate us and offer a memorable experience for my 30th birthday. This property exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we arrived, it was evident that the lakehouse was impeccably maintained. The newly renovated bathrooms were spotless and beautifully designed, adding a touch of luxury to our stay. The hosts went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, thoughtfully decorating the house to celebrate my birthday. Their attention to detail made the weekend truly special. The game room was an absolute hit with our group, boasting a well-designed layout and a wide variety of games to choose from. Whether we were playing pool, foosball, or board games, there was something for everyone to enjoy. Of course, one of the highlights of our stay was the breathtaking lake. We spent hours kayaking in its serene waters, exploring the surrounding beauty and basking in the peaceful atmosphere. The kayaks were in excellent condition, and the hosts made the entire process easy and enjoyable. The large kitchen was another standout feature of the property. We cooked several meals together, bonding over delicious food and laughter. The spacious layout and well-equipped kitchen made it easy for all of us to participate in meal preparation.

About the host

Hosted by Janine Canton

Host profile image
I am from Queens NY and I bought this house after taking a trip to a house across the lake for my birthday during covid. We wanted to go somewhere close just to get away for a few days and came across this lake. It was winter when we stayed, but the location and lake stayed in our minds. After seeing the view from the sunroom we knew this was the house for us. Originally the view was not the focal point of the house but after some strategic renovations we were able to get that view as a focal point as soon as you walk through the door. The house was designed to pull you in to the open lake view in the sunroom. Many of the furniture pieces were thrifted from NYC residents and refinished to fit in with the soothing relaxing vibe of the lake house. When designing the rec room, I wanted to add all the fun games my family loves to play together. We also designed the gaming section of the room for my son, who is an avid video gamer, so I made sure the TV was extra large. This also serves so that my loud gamer is downstairs and the movie watchers upstairs. Board games and puzzles are great played in the sunroom while we bird watch and enjoy the views and watch the boats and water sports from the great open view. I really designed this house for enjoying time in the beauty of nature with my family and I feel like that's what the house gives. The house itself has that peaceful fun cozy good time feeling, and any one who stays always catches the houses awesome vibe. I love hosting families like my own who just want to get away and hang out together. Come and enjoy!

Why they chose this property

I chose this area after staying in a house across the lake during the winter. I woke up early and through the windows you could see nothing but the sun light sparkling on snow flakes falling. It looked like a snow globe that had been shaken and was breath taking. The lake is well maintained and the wildlife is amazing. The eagles, hawks and other big birds of prey are constantly drawing your eyes to the sky and are just majestic and entertaining to watch. Its so peaceful and gorgeous during the winter and being out on the water is fun and exciting during the summer. The sunsets are absolutely stunning. The area is a bit rural but the grocery store nearby is up to date and has a great selection even for my vegan family members so we have enough variety for everyone.

What makes this property unique

I think the view and the game room makes my house stand out from the rest. The view is just breath taking. The eagles and hawks come and hang out in the tree right in front of the big picture windows. They fish in the lake and just show off their amazing wingspan and hunting skills. The gameroom provides hours of fun and the TV for the gamers can keep kids busy for endless amounts of time while the adults can enjoy relaxing and have their own space as well.
