Wonderful home!

We have stayed here twice now & both visits were amazing! The host is so warm, personable, responds quickly, & great to work with! The home is so unique & fits our needs well. The aesthetic of the house is nostalgic & the two living rooms were a lifesaver! Thank you again Johns family for opening up your beautiful home-we can’t wait until next time!

Great family vacation

The house had plenty of space and was the perfect location. It was convenient to local stores, easy to get to but also a great location on the lake. The available water boat float and kayaks were a huge plus and thoroughly enjoyed. However, some of the water toys were outdated and non-working. We would definitely book again!

Absolutely perfect

This was our first VRBO booking and it exceeded our expectations. I’ve never stayed in any type of property that made me feel 100% at home from nearly the moment I walked in the door. The house is warm, cozy and inviting. I loved being able to gaze at the water while relaxing on the couch and having the water close was so convenient. The owners are incredibly responsive and a pleasure to work with. The kids were begging to book another trip back before we even left!
