Perfect getaway

We really enjoyed the sights and sounds staying at the Moondancer house. Access to the lake and outdoor sitting is beautiful at sunset. We also enjoyed access to the par 3 golf course which is surprisingly nice for being free with the stay!

Relaxing week at DCL

We had a wonderful week's stay at Moondancer! The property is beautiful - just as shown in the listing. The house is large and comfortable. And, everyone enjoyed the hot tub, fire pit areas, and level lakefront access to the dock.

Weekend Family Getaway

We had a great time! The Moondancer had plenty of space for our family of 11. We all slept comfortably and there were more than enough bathrooms. The firepits are great and the location is amazing. We hope to do it again next year.

Lake Labor Day weekend fun

Our family had a great weekend here. Everything was great. Only downside was the hot tub stopped working after night one of our stay :/. Other than that we would be back at this lake house again.

Dream house!

My husband and I got away to Moondancer for our anniversary and it was the most amazing house. The view from the hottub as the sun was setting was SO gorgeous! The house has tons of space, beautiful showers, I can’t say enough about how perfect the house was. It is stocked with all of the dishes, wine openers, everything you could need, it made it very convenient and relaxing. We would absolutely stay again!

Spring Break 2023

I booked Moondancer for spring break with my kids and extended family - a good size group of 10. The house fit us perfectly with room to spare. It had everything we needed for a relaxing time together - hot tub, fire pit, amazing view of the lake and close proximity to everything. We had a few maintenance issues at arrival but customer service was very quick to respond and we had folks out at the property the very next morning to take care of all the issues. Would definitely rent this property again!

Perfect Vacation Home!!

Rating Details: I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. I was very happy with the location. The vacation rental was spotless. The property manager was very helpful. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: What a wonderful and gorgeous home - more than enough space for everyone. I was actually surprised how much space there was. The beds were comfortable with plenty of pillows. The twin beds room is large and I love the touch of a personal wall light for each of them. The kitchen was easy to function in with several people cooking and prepping at once. We enjoyed the outside fire pit with plenty of seating all the way around. And the hot tub was in great working order. So relaxing to be in this peaceful cove and have such a wonderful view of the lake. We have already booked to return to this home next summer!

First time visit to the area

We were very pleased with this property. It was clean, well equipped kitchen, perfect location, and quiet. Thr layout of the house was perfect for our family gatherings. Plenty of different living areas to allow kids or adults to gather. I would recommend this place, and will book it again. We went early April, off season. Would love to back between Memorial Day and Labor Day to get the full experience.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Wonderful property in a quiet location. Great family retreat. Bedrooms are configured well for three different family units. Kitchen etc was well equipment. The house needs better cleaning--toilets were not clean and much dust under the beds. The one maintenance issue was promptly handled by an experienced and professional property manager. Bee nest in front yard lead to one of the children being badly stung. Overall we would be pleased to rent the property again, since the positives greatly outweighed the few negatives,
