Long weekend for a family wedding
It was the perfect place to stay with 4 families all with kids from 1yrs to 9 year old. Lots of fun things to do. We were in town for family wedding and the space and location worked for what we were looking for.

Great location
Our teens had lots of indoor entertainment options - the game room was a hit. It was a short easy walk for ice cream, a local coffee shop and pizza. The onsite boat launch was very convenient. We enjoyed our stay!

Great getaway
Christmas family getaway was everything we expected. The house is beautiful. Perfect set up so our littel one could go to bed and we could play games in the game room. Looking forward to returning during the summer and being able to use all the outside amenities. Property manager was a delight and extremely helpful with everything.

Family Vacation
Our family gathered at this house for a long weekend and we had the best time. Great access to the water and marinas, the home was comfortable and large enough for the group, and it was easy to access from the airport. This property is located next to a commercial building, but we got over that with the amazing sunsets and nice lawn for playing outdoors. Thank you for the great stay!

Great house, right on the lake with lots of things to do with the family! We played games, had a movie night, a bonfire, went fishing and rented a boat. Plus the massage chair was the best!

Dock and lake unusable due to duck poop; owners no help
The place was fine, but the dock was completely infested with duck poop making it unusable. When we called to ask the owners how to handle, we were told there was no working outdoor hose and no broom - basically no solution. The propane tank was also missing to the grill requiring us to buy our own. We were pretty bummed over the whole situation - won’t be back.

Nice house with a great sunset view!
The house was a great fit for our week of boating on the Chain o' Lakes. The communication was prompt and thorough to our needs and worked well prior to arrival and during our stay. The house was very nicely equipped (kayak, fire pit, chairs) and things were in working order. Furnishings were clean and well maintained. I asked about a gas grill prior to arrival and, since there wasn't one, the owner arranged for a new grill to be purchased and ready for use.! There's also a great massage chair in the basement that was an added treat. Overall, very pleased with our stay!

Great Stay!!
My family stayed in this house while attending our family reunion and absolutely loved it! Their remarks - kitchen well-stocked, beds very comfortable, house well-decorated; only recommendations (because we are a tall family!) is to put a low clearance sign on the entry to the media room!! Overall - it was great and we would love to rent it again when we have family in the area!

Whole Family Vacation
This Captain Cove's House was the perfect size for our extended family group vacation. The rooms in the house were just as beautiful as shown on the website. The outside area was very spacious for activities and our young ones loved the pirate ship, boat sandbox, and swings. We had fun gatherings each night around the Fire Pit making Smores and telling stories. And most importantly to us was being able to keep our Pontoon Boat right there at the attached dock. We did have a few questions when we arrived and the owners Ken and Fabi were fabulous to work with and responded to us with answers very quickly. We would love to return sometime in the future.
