Wonderful lake house
This is a wonderful lake house for our grown kids and spouses to celebrate my husband's birthday. We hope to return soon when everyone's schedules clear at the same time again. The outdoor space, which is what is important to us, is amazing. The swim area, quiet slough, kayak, water pad, paddle board and decks were well used by our group. We had absolutely beautiful weather and it is where we spend the majority of our trip. Having three King beds and two queen beds (plus many more) was perfect for our group of 8 adults. The kitchen was well stocked as was the games. The living area, mostly windows looking at the lake, had the most seating I have ever seen....and the view- WOW! The leatherish couches were not my favorite but others in our group liked them and I enjoyed the other fabric couch and arm chairs. If you like to sit and watch TV (we turned it on one time in 4 days) they have you covered with a very large one. Our absolute favorite..... sitting on the lake front deck, in the Adirondack chairs, on the peninsula, watching the sunset and looking at the stars. We sat there drinking coffee in the morning too. You can see the fire tower from the front porch sitting also. If you are looking for a modern, minimally stocked rental- this is not for you. If you want a lake house that is stocked because the family actually uses it, where things are thought about for everyday functioning- book Sunset Peninsula.

Perfect Vaca Spot
This house is the perfect vacation place for family. Lots of comfy space inside and out. The living area is beyond fabulous - with 2 enormous sitting areas. Very child/baby friendly- so many things at the house that saves guest from having to pack. All if outside things was awesome also- kayaks, paddle board, large mat to float on. We will definitely be returning! Matt is very responsive and super nice.

Perfect in every way!
I stayed in this wonderful lake home the week before my son’s wedding at New Water Farm, and for several days after as the family celebrations continued. The home was convenient to the venue and everything we needed for last minute supplies. Beautiful lake views and the sunsets are spectacular. The owners are so friendly and responsive. In short, nothing could have been better. Thank you!

Our family has gathered at Sunset Peninsula for four summer vacations. The owners and their property are consistently great. We love the large gathering spaces (inside and outside), fabulous lake access and views, and well equipped home. Vacationing there is relaxing, fun, and easy!

Even better in Person!
We had awful weather- literally torrential rain and we still had the BEST TIME! Owner was always polite and available for the few issues we had ( related to weather). There were only four of us that stayed because my sister’s family of 13 had rented a house next door. I would love to come back again and fill up those beds with more family. There is so much common space that would be perfect for extra large families. Also, due to weather, we didn’t get to use all the great amenities that came with the house for going out on the water, but still managed lots of laughs and relaxing time.

Perfect
This was our first time to Lake Martin and it didn't disappoint. The house and location was perfect for our family get together of 6 adults and 4 kids. We brought our pontoon and was easily kept at the private dock. Lots of extra fun stuff..lilypads, paddle boards etc. It was awesome. Beds were nice and comfy. The only negative was that every dinner plate we got out to use, had stuck on food. Dishwasher must need replacing. So we washed Everything before using. Other than that, a perfect vacay!

Ideal Lake Property
We have enjoyed this lake house several times and you can’t beat the property for lake access. It is ideal for having fun in or beside the lake. Great sunsets, fishing options, swimming, kayaking, big family meals, grilling out, star gazing, or just sitting on the huge decks and enjoying the views were some of the highlights of our week vacation.
