This place is even better than the pictures! The bar with jukebox and pool table was a great place to relax after catching plenty of fish not too far from the cabin. The interior is super comfortable and newly renovated. I’m already looking forward to going back!

Spotless house with every amenity we could think of. Loved the bar/game room. Unfortunately, didn't have time to enjoy kayaking, a favorite activity of ours due to other plans but v would enjoy going back again. Fun decorations made it feel like hone.

Stayed with group of 8 adults. The rec room was perfect for us. Music, sports, pool and the bar area was easily able to have us all sit around and play games. Living room with a bunch of nice fuzzy blankets kept us comfortable and warm while warming up after ice fishing.

What an incredible property! The space and layout was perfect for our group that ranged from 1 to 75 years old. The kids had plenty of space to run around and play while there were areas where the adults could find some peace and quiet. Dawn was an extremely gracious host and communication with her was excellent. We hope to return again in the future!!

The property was as beautiful and clean as I remembered. Dawn was available if I had a question about anything. I still love the bar area, we played a lot of pool and a lot of music on the jukebox! I still love this place and hope to be back again soon!

The lake home is clean and welcoming. The rec room was much larger than the picture shows. We all really enjoyed that space. It was such fun! All rooms were a nice size and spread out nice for a large group like ours. Dawn was lovely to deal with and answered any questions I had quickly. We can't wait to go back soon!

Every year we book a cabin for a get away. After staying here this year we found the perfect place. Perfect distance for all arriving. Perfect for families and adults. We’ve already booked our trip for next summer and we’ve only been home for two days. Dawn made everything so easy. Everything you could need is there. Just bring your clothes, food and enjoy! Can’t wait to go back next year!!!

Very nice. Lots to keep us occupied when there was a storm that came through. Only complaint, wish we knew the water level was so low we couldn't launch our boat. Would have left it at home.

We're a family of five on a weekend ski trip to Granite Peak. The house worked great for us! Plenty of beds and rooms- the downstairs suite is perfect for older kids. We hung out mostly in the rec room, playing pool, darts, cards, etc. The bar is great for eating around. Everything you need is provided, and there's lots of labels and notes to answer your questions if they come up. It's about a 30min drive to Granite, so no big deal there.

This cabin is well provisioned, from the kitchen to the game room, everything you need to enjoy your stay is included. We were there the first week in June and the water was fine. Great week for paddling as the water was extremely calm. Unable to catch anything off the dock after many attempts but the yard worked for setting up our yard games and the fence in the back yard was wonderful at containing our two dogs.
