"What a great way to spend a beautiful fall weekend! Beautiful location on a quiet lake with great views! The house was stocked with the little things that make a stay easier; coffee, coloring books for kids, outdoor games, fire wood, etc. The hosts were incredibly communicative and gave us all the information we needed for a great stay! Highly recommend!"

"Overall very nice place. Clean, plenty of towels, comfortable seating area.Listing was off, saying one room had 4 beds and another had 2, but actually had 3 in one and 1 in the other. There were also big black ants, mostly on the floor in the living room. There was no info at the house about what to do when leaving with garbages, towels or stripping the beds. So we just guessed. I would stay here again, nice place."

"Would be an amazing place to stay in the summer. The guest house is very cold in winter- had to sleep on the couch in the main house it was so cold (so I'd not plan on those two extra bedrooms / 1 bathroom in the winter time for space.) Fabulous place for summer, however. "
