Serene Retreat

Very well appointed and nestled among the trees, above a cove. A lovely, peaceful place to revive amidst nature. We hated to leave! Only drawback, over 100 steps to the dock.

1 Special place

The home is very nice, with comfy beds and a beautiful kitchen. Good to have a bathroom for each bedroom. The steps to the dock are (as advertised) quite steep and there is A LOT of them! Just be aware. There is even have an ice cream boat. Lovely week. Homestead creamery ice cream by the lamas was to die for .

Nice home a the Lake

We had a nice 7-night stay at this home. Spacious and clean. Good spot and we would stay again. Please be aware if you have small children that this home may not be the best for you. The deck balusters do not meet the 4-inch code requirement and there are many easy-to-break items throughout the home. This would have no impact on someone without children <2 years old.

Quiet clean relaxing place.

Great house if you don’t mind steps! Was going to invite a couple over for dinner, but the when I got the check in information contract stated no more 6 people at a time, did send messages to ask if okay for just dinner and was told no. Nice clean house, quite down at the dock great for grandkids to play in the water and fish, could just use some handrails at the bottom of the steps for safety.

Nice Home…owners must be “loving people”

Layout was great… downstairs bed and bath, plus great den made this house super accommodating. Upstairs bedrooms nice too. Kitchen well equipped and Tv/Satellite stations super! DVD included…played old home movies…worked great. Walk down to house from parking drive was super safe even in rain. Too many steps for old people to get to the water from back porch… over 120… but sure beautiful lake view. Would come back to cook out on the grill and eat outside…and would love to stay a whole week! Thanks to loving owners… your touch showed lots of loving concern…even to the GREAT BOOKS in the bedrooms. Proud of your faith testimony!

Nice home. Vacasa is terrible.

The home was nice and the stay was enjoyable. The photo of the property facing the lake was a bit misleading. The reality is more crowded and congestion than the photo implies. This distant property management company, Vacasa, is poor at communication. They were not responsive as we attempted to access the home, and have been exasperating to deal with for an issue I am trying to bring to their attention post-stay. I miss the days of dealing with a home owner or a local property manager when renting a home.

The Perfect Getaway

"I recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming vacation rental cabin by the lake, and it was an absolute gem. The cabin itself is not only beautifully designed but also impeccably maintained. The large bedrooms were a pleasant surprise, providing ample space for everyone in our group. One of the highlights of our stay was the two decks, which allowed us to soak in the tranquil surroundings from different vantage points. The boating dock with its picturesque view was a favorite spot for morning coffee and evening stargazing. The cabin's proximity to the lake made for a truly immersive and relaxing experience. The drive to the cabin was as enchanting as the stay itself, winding through scenic landscapes and setting the tone for a perfect lakeside retreat. If you're looking for a peaceful and picturesque getaway, I highly recommend this vacation rental. It's a beautiful home that offers a wonderful escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Great Location for Family

This house was perfect for a family of 4 with 2 teenagers, and my in-laws. There were a lot of steps down to the dock, but the lake was clean, warm and the alcove is quiet. It was a perfect lake location and vacation!

A Great Place on the Lake!

Our family visited this location for a fun week by the lake and we loved it! The only thing is be warned that the steps are brutal, but we saw it as a great way to get our exercise in! It was clean and we would definitely come back to this location in the future!
