Big house 30 minutes from Willoughby Lake

Perfect house for gathering with family members : a big kitchen and a big and beautiful fenced garden, perfect for letting kids play outside. The house is not far from the wonderful Willoughby Lake. It was the second time that we rented Cristin house and it was, once again, a fantastic time!

Great Getaway

Cristin provided us beforehand with everything we needed to know about the house and the area. The place was super clean, spacious and had everything we needed. There were so many places to sleep and the beds were very comfortable. It had a great fire pit with plenty of outdoor seating. We rented it because we had a softball tournament in a nearby town but I would definitely rent it again for a family vacation. Island Pond is a cute little town and the lake is a mile away. We couldn't have been happier with the place!

Winter isn’t winter without a stay at my favorite house

Cris is an awesome host. I have stayed at her home several times and love it like it’s my own. The kitchen is great, the house is warm and comfortable (and very roomy). I love being there and can’t wait to go back.

Weekend Summer Getaway

A few of my friends and I stayed at this home for a weekend and had a great time. The local public beach was nice as it was free to swim and launch kayaks or canoes and it was far from crowded. Other than that, we had fun nights having fires in the fire pit and enjoying the view. I reccomend this house for anyone looking to gather with family or friends.

Second stay, but it won’t be the last!

Cris is an awesome host and the house is fantastic. We can ride to the snowmobile trails from the house. It is warm and roomy and well stocked. The heated mud room is the bomb! Cannot recommend this host and home enough.

Great Weekend Getaway - Perfect for large groups

The house was perfect for our weekend getaway. We had four adults and seven kids between two families, and there was plenty of room for everyone. We didn’t go out in the town at all, except for a couple of quick runs to the grocery store for a few basic things. We enjoyed cooking and eating meals together. The kitchen accommodated all of us without feeling cramped or in the way. Everyone had their own space in the house. The kids enjoyed running around and playing in the big back yard - especially with the couple inches of snow on the ground. When they were sufficiently cold from being outside, they were able to watch movies and play games in the large upstairs room. The living room always had a couple people in it at any given time either relaxing on the comfortable sofa, playing games, or using the TV. The adults spent most of the weekend in the kitchen either playing board games at the table, cooking, or cleaning up after eating - 11 people is a lot! We thought we would need the wood stove as it was very cold while we were there, but the house ran very warm and we had difficulty regulating the heat. Verizon wireless does not work in the area. Our phones said “No service” all weekend. We had one phone on AT&T with full service and there is a land line for local calls if needed. The WiFi worked well and supported all the tablets and phones that we had with us. Cristin was very responsive to all my emails and questions and was very helpful with all her answers. All in all, it was a great time and we’re already talking about plans for next year.

Relaxing Group Getaway

My fiancé and I came last year with another couple of friends and had such a great time that we came back with a bigger group this year and had an even better time! There was plenty of space to fit us all and the house really does have all the comforts of home without having to actually lug all of your stuff around with you. While here we visited some great restaurants and breweries in addition to kayaking at the state park and trying to spot some moose in the nearby nature reserve. The house is great just to relax, but also close enough to plenty of attractions to fill your time if needed. Thanks for another wonderful long weekend!
