Wonderful waterfront house!

We had a great stay at this house. We’ve been coming to Ivanhoe since we were kids, so we were very excited to return and stay ON the lake! Great house, deck and pier! Kayaks and plenty of floats for some relaxing fun in the water.

Thanksgiving Family Getaway

This was a very clean property that delivered everything that was promised. It was a very peaceful, relaxing location and the accommodations were well-appointed and comfortable. We enjoyed fishing off the pier…caught and released quite a few bass. We liked it so much that we’re thinking about coming back this summer.

Amazing getaway

Just what the family needed. Beautiful house that is full stocked with everything you would need. Beds are super comfy and cold A/C and hot water. The best part is sitting out on the deck and enjoying the lake view. I’m any activities for the kids to do as well. Will definitely be back.

Taylors Ivanhoe 2023 Visit

This was our second stay with Will at Virgil's place. There is something so peaceful and serene about this place, we all did not want to leave. I thank Will for sharing this place with us all. I had a chance to recharge my batteries some just enjoying the views, Kayaking, swimming/floating, perch fishing, family games and exploring the area on our golf cart. The place has everything you need to chill, relax, be comfortable and entertained if that's what you need.. We want to come back in the fall or winter if time permits and also definitely next summer. Thanks!

Wonderful Property!

We just needed a place to stay close to family. However, when we arrived at the property we were disappointed we couldn't stay longer. The house has a great layout and is super inviting. The view of the lake, the deck and all the other amenities were outstanding. I would definitely recommend this property!
