Breakaway had everything we needed and then some. The location is great and even the hottest afternoons there was a shady spot to relax. Kids loved the air hockey when we weren’t outside and the house is roomy enough to give everyone options. When ants wanted to crash the party property management was responsive, polite and helpful. Thanks for a terrific family getaway!
This property was very clean, and it has all the amenities you could want. Its location, just off the Route 122 bridge, is super convenient to everything, whether by land or by water. However, very, very tight to turn around with a larger boat (ours is 23') trailer attached to a pickup truck. The driveway winds around the house, but the turn radius appeared too tight for my equipment. The owner should ascertain the maximum length that works, and this should be published with the property info. There was also a question upon check-in whether the "included" linens were actually included. Guests should verify this closely when reserving. If not for these 2 items, this property would rate 5 stars.

Family vacation
Hard to find a house big enough for our family of 5, plus spouses and grands. House was perfect fit and the house was well stocked with all the creature comforts! Cove in front was very tranquil, but a bit small and water had a green hue. Waterfront had lots of leaves and could have used some clean up! There were 2 docks, plenty of kayaks, but ground had a lot of stone (hard on the feet), ants galore and fire pit was a joke. Hot tub was awesome! Was able to dock the boat easily, but parking the trailer was a bit tough. Public ramp very close, and fortunately was able to put the boat in before arriving. Was able to unhitch the trailer to turn it around, otherwise would have had to back up and extremely tight and steep driveway. House was terrific and location was convenient, but would have liked to be able to see a bit more or the lake. Only was to do this was to venture out on the boat.
Our stay at Break Away was great ! The complete family enjoyed the week vacation, My only downfall was using VRBO very disappointing site, over charging for very little service !!! VRBO SUCKS !!!!!!
One of the top Vacations we have ever had and we vacation a lot!
The house was beautiful! It was literally stocked with everything you could possibly ask for. Waffle iron, Keurig , drip coffee machine, margarita machine, ice cream churn, you name it ! Very comfortable, very clean, tons of options in life vests and kayaks. We rented a pontoon boat for the week, which was very enjoyable, but actually not even needed with so many options at the house.
Excellent accommodations !
What a beautiful view from many of the rooms in this awesome family plus more sized home. The owners have done a great job of making sure that the rental is equipped with everything you need from fun in the cove to the supplies and utensils in the kitchen. We plan on coming back! You will love it!
This property has it all! Great location off the main road but far enough back that there was no noise. Perfect spot on the lake, it kept our 14 year old boys busy from sun up to sun down! Lots of lake toys and the pool table were a big hit. We can’t wait to come back next year!!!
This house was perfect for a weekend getaway with a large group. Everyone had plenty of room to move around and the bedrooms were very comfortable. The hot tub and pool table kept the teenagers well entertained. The kitchen was well stocked and the property manager was amazing to work with. We very much recommend this house!
