The house has been renovated nicely and had all the amenities we needed. The house was located on a private lake in a very quiet area. Our kids loved the kayaks and paddle board. They also had a bedroom to themselves. We spent everyday enjoying the lake, either on the water, fishing or sitting on the beach or in the screened porch. We were looking for a quiet place to getaway and found it. We would definitely come back for a long weekend. ##### Diep M. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alan N., Point of Rocks, MD, USA 29 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Peaceful and Relaxing Holiday Stay We elected to stay at this property during Thanksgiving, so I could spend it with my parents near their home, but also far enough away that it felt like a "getaway" location. Overall, the house is amazing. There were 7 of us in all, and we didn't feel squished together. There was plenty of room to handle our group (and more, had I needed). The kitchen was large and accommodated our needs for the holiday - everything I needed was there (utensils, appliances, etc). There was even several rooms to stretch out and relax in, like watching television, cozying up with a book or just taking in the absolutely picturesque view of the lake (the star of the show). Beds were clean and comfy, bathrooms were great. We had plenty of towels and linens to cover all of our needs. I would also like to mention that the property owner is spectacular, answering any questions I had quickly! An additional tip... Waze tells you to go the wrong way to get to the house, sending you down a gravel road to someone else's property - so make sure you watch the address and what road you're on carefully. Once you get it though, it's very very easy! I don't count that against this property, though - it's five stars all the way. ##### Alan N.

The house was incredibly clean, supplied with everything we needed for our stay, and well situation for our group of 10\. We were fortunate to have super warm weather that was great for swimming. We enjoyed the beach, it was great for our kids ages 2-10\. The biggest complaint is there were many snakes in the lake. Could have been the time of year or due to the abnormally warm weather (95 degrees in mid June), but the snakes really freaked us out. We saw multiple ones every day we were there. We just kept an eye out for them and still enjoyed the lake, beach, and kayaks. The kids also enjoyed fishing, they got a bite just about every time they dropped in a line. Overall a beautiful place, but just be aware of the snakes in the lake before swimming! ##### Megan K.

Quiet and peaceful, great location. This home was fully equipped and worked out perfectly for our family. Our favorite was the screened in back porch where we enjoyed our meals and family time together. ##### Cathy E.

We already knew that this home was going to be awesome from the VRBO listing and reviews but it was beyond our expectations! Our family - me, husband, 9 and 7 year old, along with fun Grandma - loved every single inch of this perfectly cozy minimalist home. A few of our favorites - the sunroom, the variety of kayaks, SUPs, fishing gun, the incredible yard, the firepit, the ping pong table, the basement room with two beds perfect for our boys, the peace and quiet, the kitchen window, the uncomplicated and fun decor, the air-conditioning, the dock provided hours and hours of goodness. This perfect home and location was magical and I can't thank you enough for the care that went into making it special for your guests. Our 6 day stay included a train ride to Chicago, which we picked up 10 minutes from home. A visit to Milwaukee to see the Brewers play our home team - The Rockies! 10 out of 10 - would recommend this stay to anyone! ##### Lisa M.

The house was perfect for our family vacation! The access to the lake and beach was very convenient. The beach was bigger than expected and offered hours of sandcastle building fun. The lake was calm and watching sunsets from the beach gorgeous! Highly recommend this property! ##### Jackie S.

Everything you could want in a lake house get away. The fisherpeople in our group loved the lake - as it is grassy and had lots of lily pads. We all enjoyed the shore and the beach area - which is cleared of grass and allows for splashing around on shore. The screened porch was the ideal hang out location. We were all very comfortable, and had a great stay. ##### Nancy F. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2022 ---
