Best Rental Ever Stayed!
The cabin is beautiful and clean with every amenity you need and more. We were a family of 7 and enjoyed the view of Bossung Lake. We loved kayaking and fishing. The owner was very responsive to all questions and was local in case we needed anything. She was a delight to talk to and learn the history of the cabin and the others around. The neighborhood kitty, Felix, came to say and wanted lots of love. We hope to be back soon and make more memories.

A retirement community
This home is beautiful and stocked with everything you could ever need. It’s nestled in a retirement community setting. The owners are never more than a few houses away, in and out of the house all day and into the evening. Be sure to read all the pamphlets as there are a lot of rules. The kids kept telling us there were flash lights in the yard after dark, I thought they were kidding until I stayed up with our baby one night and saw it for myself. I have never felt safer in a rental home as we were being watched always. The owners are so hard working and put so much sweat into this home and they are very proud of it, and it is really nice. We ended up leaving 3 days early as we felt very uncomfortable, and felt as if we were taking their home from them, as this home is where they live when not rented out. The owners told us the community watches and would report to them also if rules were broken. We are just a family, not spring breakers or girls gone wild lol. In my opinion, the owners should probably not rent this house out as they just love it and it’s hard for them to see anyone else in it.

Johnson Lake New Years Stay
We had a great time for a New Years staycation! So sweet of them to provide a bottle of champagne for our New Years toast. The home was beautiful and perfect for our group of 8. It definitely could've slept 2-4 more people. It was very comfortable for all of us. They had a fully operating kitchen which was much appreciated as we cooked almost every meal. We went down to the brewery for dinner one night which was barely a two minute drive- we would've loved to walk if it was the summer. We had everything we needed. The lake was beautiful even frozen. We would love to come back in the summer- it looks like there are lots of fun things to do in warmer weather- but would still recommend a winter trip if you are looking for a lowkey staycation.

Little Slice of Heaven
I am blown away by how wonderful this property was to stay at and how wonderful the hosts were! First of all, the beauty of the views from both the front and back of the home are astounding. This property was incredibly clean, spacious and well supplied far beyond what any of us could have expected. Toiletries, food, condiments, life jackets, kayaks, bikes, towels galore, the hot tub, grill and fire pit (all amazing!), badminton, croquet and a variety of balls for the kids. Also, every bedroom had a television and the internet worked wonderfully the entire time, including the surround sound in the living room. The hosts were super responsive and friendly. We ran out of propane one night while grilling and a gentleman arrived within minutes to install a new tank. Talk about service! Medo’s restaurant was also a great recommendation by the host and we also enjoyed renting jet skis. The lake was clean and beautiful and the surrounding community was quiet and equally lovely. I would love to live here, honestly! The lake is close to and easily accessible from the backyard for kayaks, but not too close to where I was extremely worried about my toddler running off and hopping into the water. The backyard is huge and grassy and just lovely for playing and relaxing in. All in all, I cannot recommend this place highly enough and I hope we can come back soon.
