Beautiful lake house
We just wrapped up our stay and it was perfect! The house is beautiful, with great amenities and well organized. The giant table in the kitchen sat a huge crowd and plenty of room to puzzle and play other games. The teens loved hanging in the spacious bunk room. The views of the lake are amazing. We brought our own boat and there was space to keep it at the pier. Last but not least, Brett was great to work with! We would not hesitate to rent again. Great experience!!!

Amazing wine Weekend
We rented this home for a girls wine trip and could it not have been more perfect. The house was absolutely beautiful and clean. More than enough room for the 8 of us. All of us could not get over the kitchen and how amazing the beds and linens were . We got lucky with the weather and got to enjoy sitting by the lake and had bonfires both nights. The owner was amazing and make sure we had everything we need. We are already planning our next visit..

Brett has an incredible home well equipped with great amenities to enjoy a weekend away.
We had an easy time with the renting process and with navigating the stay. Brett was accommodating and available for quick questions. He was kind and helpful throughout the whole process. He had wonderful recommendations for activities in the area. Cannot wait to spend another weekend here in the near future!!

Long Fall Weekend
Lovely Lakehouse, spacious kitchen, great views, friendly homeowner. I try to make 1 or 2 visits to the Sister Lakes a year, and Brett's home is a fantastic place to stay. Clean, tons of space, great view and access to the lake. Brett was super helpful with any questions we had.

The Magic of Magician Lake
Our family just returned from renting this property for a week and are ready to return...This property exceeded all of our needs and exceptions. The homes layout is perfect for a vacation home, having 2 well furnished living spaces, a dining area, a well laid out kitchen, and that does not even begin to describe a perfect outdoor space second to none for our family. Spacious bedrooms with ample storage made our vacation flow smoothly with room for all. We had all of this plus - location, location, location on the lake....It was perfect for my younger grandchildren to play in the shallow water and deep enough for the older grandchildren to spend hours on the Lilly Pad we rented, or just jumping into the water off the dock...The dock set up was conducive to easily park our pontoon boat and jet skis without any trouble what so ever...All of this PLUS a great landlord? Yes - Brett was very easy to get a hold of, very responsive to questions and very appreciative that we selected his property. He gets a 10 plus!! The neighbors were wonderful, actually every single person we came in contact with in Sisters Lake went out of their way to be helpful... After having our family vacation at a different location each year we all said we felt we finally hit the perfect formula for our future vacations... Brett's house in Sisters Lake!! it truly feel it cannot be topped....

Magician Lake Lakehouse
My family stayed for 5 nights . We regretted not being able to stay longer. This home is really amazing. Very spacious, comfortable, clean, and built for relaxation. The owners have supplied every possible item that anyone could ever need. The whirlpool on the deck, the firepit by the lake, the large deck, are just some of the things that made our stay so enjoyable. My mother is handicapped and it was a pleasure for her to have all the comforts of home . I can't imagine any summer home being able to beat this one.

Great Place to Vacation!!
Our large family stayed there in July. It is a beautiful place, very charming, with everything you need & more. Very clean and cozy. The owners were extremely accommodating and helpful. The property is very well maintained. The patio is great, with plenty of chairs and patio table to eat outside. We rented a boat and tubed every day for hours on end. The kids loved the hot tub too. It's a great place - we had a fantastic time and the place is really top notch!

PERFECT house on the lake for any vacation!!
Our family of four, plus extended family and friends, stayed at this house in July and it was the perfect location for our summer vacation on Magician Lake! The house is beautifully decorated and stocked with everything you could possibly need, spacious, clean and right on the water. Everything in the listing is accurate and everyone had a blast! The water was shallow enough for our kids to play safely, the hot tub worked perfectly at different temperatures for kids/adults, and the hammock was a perfect place for a afternoon nap. The back patio overlooks this fantastic lake and is beautifully furnished with tables and chairs so that you can enjoy the amazing views! Whether you're looking for an action-filled trip or a quiet, relaxing getaway, this property WILL NOT disappoint! We can't wait to come back next summer!
