Cozy winter retreat
Nice spot to lodge with a group in winter. We were at a conference most of the days and didn’t spend a lot of time on the property, but it served our needs great. The only challenge was getting up the hill outside with a couple vehicles since it was icy, but everyone made it eventually. Host was communicable and friendly and helpful.

Great Fall Getaway!
Beautiful views and quiet neighborhood. Sauna was amazing! Bed was very comfortable. Kitchen/bathroom had everything we needed and I appreciated the dishwasher. The walk back up from the lake is not for the faint of heart-great workout. Backing up the inclined driveway with our ATV trailer was a bit tricky, there is room for 1 trailer and 2 vehicles at the top. Close to an ATV trail. Thanks for sharing your little slice of heaven with us!

Beautiful property!
Our family of 14, from 73 to 6 had a delightful time at this beautiful chalet.Grandpa and Grandma had a bit of a challenge walking from the cabin to the beach and docks. But, taking it slow and easy, we were able to make it. We would have appreciated a 2nd bathroom in the chalet. However there was a second in the bunk house. The kids thoroughly enjoyed the beach, swimming and tubing. Thanks to Jon and Carolyn for sharing this lovely property with us!

The house fit our every need. Check in process was seamless. Rooms were decently sized and decorated nicely. WiFi was strong and consistent. It was quiet on the lake and at night it felt like there wasn’t another soul around for miles. We can’t wait to return!

Great location. Accommodations smaller than expected.
We enjoyed this area very much. Unfortunately when we arrived at the property I had to spend the first moments of our vacation vacuuming the entire house, including the couches and wiping down surfaces because there were so many dead ladybugs all over. We appreciated getting a heads up from the owners that there was an increased number of ladybugs outside, however, we were surprised no one checked the inside of the house to vacuum the many bugs before we checked in. This home comfortably fit our family of 6, but I would not recommend it for more people than that even though the listing says it can accommodate more.

Beautiful property on a beautiful lake!
I can't say enough nice things about the property! The house was clean and well appointed. The fire pit and yard were great for evenings. The dining room table easily fit our 9 people (4 adults and 5 children). We spent all of our time on this beautiful lake. Fishing was spectacular off the dock and out of our boat. There was a small sandy beach with a shallow portion for the kids. There is a quick drop off but we found this quite nice as it allowed us to do some great swimming and jump off the dock. The kids really enjoyed the paddle boards and kayaks. We brought our boat and kept it at the dock. There's power right off the dock so we were able to plug in the batteries with an extension cord. The public boat ramp is right down the road from the house and a very short boat trip to the house. The lake itself is a beautiful teal color and very clean. Jon was great to work with and very responsive. The hill up and down from the lake is a steep one but is clearly stated in the description and we did not have any issues (great leg work out). We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!

Peaceful Hideaway
This property is all that we hoped for and more. The home is nestled into a hill along the edge of a beautiful, clear lake. The furnishings are so comfortable, you feel right at home. The kitchen is well supplied, plenty of towels in the bathroom, games, books, & a beautiful welcome gift waiting when we arrived. We enjoyed the sauna, paddle boat & beautiful drives in the color studded forests that surround the home. The owners were also very attentive to any questions and quick to respond when we reached out to them. We would highly recommend this property.
