Peaceful Winter Getaway

The cabin was exactly what my husband and I were looking for. It was well appointed, clean, beautifully decorated, and located on a beautiful, serene lake. There was plenty of room for our two dogs to run and explore the property. We look forward to staying again!

Thanksgiving Get together

We all loved our stay! The house is immaculate. It is located at the end of the road so the setting is very quiet. The river is just outside the big window and the star gazing was fantastic. The host were super easy to work with. We will be back soon! Thank you!

Amazing place!

Myself and four friends stayed here for a girls getaway, and we could not have hoped for a more perfect place to rest and recharge. Every detail was considered to maximize comfort and coziness, from views of the peaceful waterfront from inside and outside on the deck, to the gorgeous and unique decor in every room, to the comfortable and high-quality amenities. The host was super responsive and helpful. We plan to be back!

Wonderful, relaxing getaway

My spouse and I stayed for a weekend with family. We wish we could have stayed longer! The view from the deck is gorgeous and the home is quiet with practically no traffic. We cooked, hiked, and relaxed. Communication was great. I highly recommend this place!

Great Stay

House is in a nice location at the end of a cul de sac. Bedrooms are spacious. Kids loved the games downstairs. Deck had a nice sitting area and dining table. A couple of spots in the laminate were bubbled up and the whole floor would move up and down when you stepped in those areas. The dock was pulled out of the water already, which made it very difficult to use.

Cute and quiet

Overall a cute little place… a bit rough around the edges… They definitely did the best with what they had to work with… you can tell that a lot of thought was put into design/decor details which elevated the whole feel of the place. Clear instructions. Clean house. Quiet and peaceful.

Excellent Trip!

We had a blast and loved the small town atmosphere. The local pub was a great stop on our way between golf courses and was well worth the price and company! We will be staying here again.

Perfect Weekend Getaway And Views

We had an amazing cousins weekend at this beautiful house. The deck provided stunning sunset views over the river and forest. The location felt more private and remote than we expected, which was a delightful surprise. The basement was a hit with shuffleboard, foosball, and ping pong. We also enjoyed kayaking in the mornings. The caretakers were responsive and kind. Highly recommend this place, and we’d gladly rent it again for our next trip.
