The Perfect Little Long Weekend Getaway!
Our three kiddos had a long weekend off of school, so we decided to do an impromptu long weekend getaway! We loved that dogs were allowed, all the beautiful hiking options within a 45 minute drive, the beautiful sunsets from the dock, the super fun and entertaining game room, the adventure shed, and the fully stocked kitchen so we could cook breakfasts and other meals at home. We truly enjoyed our stay. :)

It was beautiful and well take care of. This was perfect for a group of us girls! And not too far from other fun places! So much fun to do there too, even though we didn’t utilize the activity shed, it was a super nice addition! The game room was a favorite of the group!

Relaxing Family Vacation
This rental has everything you need to enjoy a great relaxing vacation. We were able to enjoy the peacefulness by the water, do some fishing, and be able to kayak as many amenities as possible. As all items are available to do so. The house is very cleanly and there is plenty of room for multiple guests. The location is fantastic, as it is not that far out of the way to visit other towns, such as Sisters Bay. This is the 2nd time renting this house, and we will for sure be renting it again.

Peaceful Escape
We enjoyed a quiet, restful weekend by the lake in this well kept, well stocked lake cottage. It was close to town, but felt remote and was very peaceful. I recommend for a winter getaway if that’s the environment you’re look for!

Lake house
We enjoyed the game room, sun room, fire pit, and all of the activities in the shed especially the kayaks. The house had supplies we didn’t expect like dish soap, shampoo, blankets, laundry detergent, etc. which was a surprise to us. While the home has AC, I think a dehumidifier is needed because there was a smell which irritated some guests allergies and asthma.

Great spot on the water
Loved this house! It was bigger than the pictures looked and had plenty of space for our group. The back yard is amazing and private even with the neighbors. Felt extremely safe with the key pads at the house. AC worked wonders for the summer. Nice and cool. You can tell this place has been marinated well. Was fully stocked with the essentials. And working with Emily was smooth as can be. Would recommend to a friend and hopefully stay here again. Thanks again!

Comfortable for our family outing
We were quite comfortable at the The Lake Haus. It was very peaceful looking out at the bay from the firepit area and the sunsets from the dock were gorgeous. The game room was a hit with everyone, especially the golf and Tempest arcade games and the electronic dart board. The bunk room was very well laid out and the beds very comfortable. The kitchen and living room/dining area were a bit small for our group of nine, but we made do without too much trouble. This was a nice place to stay for our 3-night get-away. We took many walks around the neighborhood and encountered many friendly smiles and waves along the way. Our stay was peaceful and we enjoyed the accommodations. I would recommend this rental to others for sure. Also, I have to give a shout out to Emily and Bernice for their wonderful communication over the weeks/months leading up to our stay. They answered any question I had and the check-in/check-out process was so easy. Thank you.
