NorthShore - on Guthrie Lake

On nearly 3 acres, sharing an 11 acre tract with only one other (family member). Wonderful privacy, really wonderful lake for swimming or fishing; beach along the shore for swimming (depending on high-water level); 30-foot dock for boating (public boat ramp on the south end of the lake, a mile down the trail). Fire-pit by the shore (wood provided). Hiker-friendly woods. Cute squirrels and chipmunks; deer in the yard are not unusual. House has a great kitchen, open floor plan, much new carpet, new vinyl floors in kitchen, bath, utility, central heat and air conditioning; unlimited high speed wifi internet, Roku for two TVs, or watch DVDs (provided, some), or bring your own game console. Two full baths, 3 bedrooms, big screened porch for additional space, gas barbecue grill (gas provided). Handicap accessible. 14 foot aluminum boat with 6 hp motor (fuel provided); 12' canoe, hard SUP board, inflated two-person kayak.

From our cleaning and sanitation crew:
" We at IBKLEAN want to help our guests feel even more comfortable this summer. Time at the lake is for relaxing, not worrying.

We have been cleaning here for many years. This year we are doing things differently. The most important things are:
1) All staff will complete the Health Department required CDC paperwork before every clean. No one will work if they are not well.
2) Our staff will wear clean/new gloves, masks, and foot covers for every cleaning job.
We will use new/ clean ( in hottest water possible) cleaning tools for every cleaning job.
3) We will use the recommended 2 step cleaning, then disinfecting process, allowing enough time for the disinfectant to work.
4) All laundry will be washed in the hottest water possible. Baskets will be disinfected regularly.
5) We will maintain a check list of this process

We hope our commitment to everyone’s health and safety helps you feel at home. Thank you and have a wonderful time. "

Great Location

My family loved staying at this location. The house had enough room to sleep 8 adults and two pets comfortably with an amazing sun room and spacious kitchen. The ORV / ATV trails were just down the road. The lake was great for Canoeing.

Woodsy Paradise

Comfortable and everything as stated except no option for pontoon boat once we were there- disappointing. While this is still private, it sadly won’t be for long. Lots are sectioned off and area being cleared close. The home felt most welcoming though and so many amenities! The porch really made it! Thank you, Gilberts.

Family Vacation

Beautiful location and the lake was amazing. House needed some repairs, sliding door to the deck would not open more than a few inches. Screen door was falling off, we replaced some screws so we could use it. Furniture is in very bad shape and worn, ceiling fans were very dirty. There was rust in both the tubs and toilet bowls.

Perfect Vacation Spot

This place far exceeded my expectations. The pictures posted did not do it justice. We had 11 people in our party and there was plenty of room. very spacious. The screened in porch was beautiful. The breeze coming off the lake was fabulous. Air conditioning was not even needed and it was in the high 80s. The lake was so beautiful (surrounded by tall trees everywhere ) and at times we were the only people on it. The water is so clear and so clean. I swear ii didn't even see seaweed. This place is a must if you are looking for a quiet secluded get away to free your mind.
