Lakeside home
Very peaceful and lovely area, owners had all the comforts of home inside. Directly on a private lake with access to kayaks and a small island across the way. Very soft and comfortable bed. Soothing ceiling fans, streaming TV, air conditioning not needed.

Exceptional Experience
This property is an idyllic slice of heaven, and the hosts Mary and Theresa go above and beyond to make their guests feel welcomed and comfortable. The location is perfect for a relaxing getaway with hiking nearby and kayaks on the property with an easy launch area. We were often the only ones kayaking on the quiet lake. You will never want to leave the lakeside patio with the exquisite flowers and other plants. Everything you could need is provided in the kitchen. Thank you both for a great stay- we loved it!

Beautiful laid back spot
Beautiful spot on the lake. A little chilly for us to use the kayaks, but we made use of the hot tub. A great middle spot for other destinations.

Idyllic getaway, exceeded expectations (which were high).
We've stayed at VRBO properties many times, including other lakefront homes. This one tops them all. The moment we stepped out of the car, we were struck by the profusion of flowers in the garden surrounding the home. We were welcomed immediately and given a tour of the apartment, including the spa. The view from the living room and the deck is sublime. A small island, just a short swim or paddle away, had children swinging from a rope and dropping into the lake. Close enough that you could watch and hear them, but not so close as to be intrusive. As the sun dropped behind the mountain, we watched swallows darting through the air, and later a bat. Serenely peaceful sums it up. The apartment feels like home, comfortable in every respect. A very well appointed kitchen had everything one could possibly need. The bathroom is compact, but has good water pressure and hot water aplenty. The linens and towels were like new and we enjoyed the fragrant imported soaps. The bed was a bit soft for my preference, but I slept soundly. Back to the spa: very clean and perfect for an evening after a long day of hiking to relax the muscles and soothe tired feet. Blissful! We hope to return in the winter to experience this tranquil location again.

Heaven on Earth!
Mary and Theresa are truly the best hosts! I was given a full tour of the property upon arrival, and was also pleasantly surprised with two batches of delicious cookies waiting for me! They really go out of their way to make sure that you have an enjoyable, relaxing stay. The house itself is beautiful and historic. It was wonderful to fall asleep each night with the sliding glass door open in order to hear the nature sounds. I was able to use their kayaks and spend some time on the lake; the scenery was well worth it! They have magnificent gardens that are very well-kept; this added to the magical ambience of the cottage. I would 10/10 recommend this place to anyone who is looking to spend some time enjoying nature and the water. Do not pass up the opportunity to stay here! You will not be disappointed! I can't wait to come back! Thanks for a great stay!

A MUST STAY :)
This property was amazing, seriously the pictures DOES NOT DO JUSTICE!!! It exceeded my expectations! The home was lovely & comforting. Beautiful wall decor, very clean, slept like a baby in that wonderful brass bed, soothing shower head, firm couches I could go on. What I love the most is the beautiful lake scenery, peacefulness, & serenity, which by the way you can enjoy while relaxing in an incredible outside hot tub, I mean seriously so good could not get enough. Don’t let the serenity fool you there’s plenty to do such as walking the trail such as I did & taking a 10-15 min ride into town to grab a bite to eat from various restaurants. All I have to say I enjoyed myself tremendously & can not wait to book again. I want to thank Mary for her friendly warm hospitality & the delicious cookies which were made for us :)
