Beautiful Lake Avalon home- perfect for everyone!

Incredible!!! Stephanie and her family have updated this home beautifully. The way that the living space was utilized and updated could not have been better! This is a 4 season home! There is tons to do outside in the yard and in the rec room in the basement! We were in town for a family event and had a few questions leading up to check in, Stephanie was extremely and efficiently responsive with instructions and reassurance. The home was very clean upon arrival and when entering the home you are greeted with a open layout and a picture perfect view Lake Avalon! We will be renting in the future!!!

Stephanie was a great host! She answered all my questions quickly and was super kind! My family enjoyed the amount of room this beautiful home offered. It was perfect! Water was crystal clear and knee deep for quite a way so as a family of young kids it was perfect! This home had everything you could want/need. It was perfect!

This cottage on Lake Avalon was very well suited for our family reunion. The kids and grandkids LOVED the water activity with an ample supply of fun (kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, the floating trampoline, canoe, etc) ...so much fun.The house worked out great with super fast and solid wi-fi, any kitchen utensil and dish you could ask for, 2 fridges, lots of towels, blankets, bed space, and bathrooms. Huge kitchen island for gathering :-)The outdoor space is king here, with the very large patio, and deck space, basketball area, ample parking, rear yard space, and a very nice large shallow area in the lake for the littles to safely splash around.Stephanie was VERY responsive before and during our stay.Also, the small town a few miles away has a wonderful grocery store with everything you could need.We all had a great time!

Family, Family and Family

Wonderful property for a large group. I felt like it didn’t matter what the weather was, we were covered for entertainment. It was beautiful for our stay, so we were in the water and on the pontoon!A couple of things that we had to go to the store for was dish soap and dish washer detergent and toilet paper. I thought the entire home had air conditioning, but it was only the common area. The bedrooms were warm at night. Those couple of things are not criticism, only making aware.Thanks for a fabulous stay!
