Great place for family Vacation !!

We had a great time at this lake house. Perfect location, and the house was beautiful. Very clean and lots of activities in the house for the rainy day. Whenever we had a question about something manager, or owner responded very quickly. We travel with small kids, and it was well accommodated for families.

Family Fun

The lake was so beautiful. It is a very quiet lake with no boats. It’s the perfect lake for small children because of that. The house was perfect for our family golf outing getaway. Plenty of room to spread out. There were sand toys, swim floats, and beach towels to use.

Everything you need in one house

I was staying with my husband and 2 longtime friends, so we needed a couple of bedrooms and bathrooms for privacy. This home filled the bill, and then some! The large living area with sectional was perfect for kicking back after being on the lake. 2 kayaks and a paddle boat were provided and we made use of them several times during our stay. The double decks were also great with plenty of seating.The house was clean and well stocked. We would stay here again without a question!

Highland House

We had a fantastic stay at this lake house! The home was spacious, comfortable, clean and well stocked. It easily accommodated our group of 8 adults and 2 children. The child-proof gates were a huge plus with little ones. The lake itself was beautiful—perfect for swimming. We would definitely rent it again.

Wonderful!

What a lovely house and location! We found the house to be spacious and comfortable for four couples. Very pretty and cozy. The bed/mattresses were of nice quality and comfortable. We took turns cooking and the kitchen was well stocked with the tools and dishes we needed. We enjoyed most of our meals on the upper deck with a lovely view of the lake. I especially enjoyed my morning coffee on the deck! The lake was great for swimming and kayaking which we did every day. One day we took a 35 minute (approximately) drive to the Kal-Haven Trail for a walk, but mostly stayed around the house. One night we made BBQ chicken on the gas grill. We made a bon fire next to the water and played games inside another. There are several games stocked in the lower level. I am already planning my stay for next summer!Making reservations was seamless. As was communicating with our contact person with a couple of questions.
