Great place to stay when visiting family
I stayed at the Oar House to visit my family. It was a perfect location for me to work remotely peacefully and also spend time with my family. My parents stayed one night and it was the perfect "hang out".

Cozy Cabin Convenient to the Lake
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay (again) at Oar House! The cabin has everything we needed for a relaxing time and is so convenient to Glendale Lake. We took our kayaks on the lake almost every day during our stay, and enjoyed the cozy convenience of the cabin as home base. We certainly plan to return for future stays. Thanks to our host for such a gem!

We really enjoyed our stay for the weekend. Although the weather didn't cooperate to use the fire pit, it looked amazing. The house had everything in it that was advertised and more.

Enjoyed visiting Oar House. Had everything that we needed for our stay. Beautiful place next to Prince Galitzin state park. Weather was chilly so planning to return when we can enjoy the fire pit and outside grilling. Thanks to Andy for sharing his place with us.

Great rental property
Clean, newly renovated property with everything that you could need. Check in/out was easy, communication with the owner was also easy and he was very responsive throughout the entire process. We look forward to booking with Andy again next time we are planning to visit the area. Would recommend.
