Jeff and Jess’ lakefront home made for a perfect retreat to relax and take in the peace of the lake and loons. Comfortable bed, nice and clean with everything you need to enjoy yourself. Great communication with the owners throughout the process. Hard to pack our bags and say goodbye. Looking forward to returning.

Great Place

We really enjoyed the property. The interior was nicely updated. The fire pit on the shore was perfect. The ride to Sugarloaf was a little further than expected but the coziness of camp made up for it. Will definitely consider another stay at this property.

ICE FISHING GET AWAY

Great property, exceptional views....the house has great access to the lake. It snowed during our trip, so the large front windows made it a great vantage point to watch the snow and our ice fishing traps.

My family loved our stay at this cozy home on the lake. The views of Porter Lake are stunning and nothing beats having your morning coffee while watching the sun rise up over the lake and listening to the loons say good morning. Being able to kayak or canoe out onto the lake for fishing or exploring the nearby beach was great. My boys found a little island with a rope swing for jumping into the lake and spent a lot of time there having fun. I personally enjoyed floating on the raft chair during the hot afternoons. My dogs felt right at home too running around on the grass and being able to step out onto the lake for a sip of water when they were thirsty. We stayed in most of the time and were able to cook several meals either in the well-equipped kitchen or using the outdoor grill. The beds were very comfortable and we enjoyed taking naps almost daily especially since we woke up very early most mornings because we didn’t want to miss the beautiful sunrises. Our only slight negative is that we wished the living room area was bigger to accommodate my whole family but the reclining sofa was very comfortable to watch TV in and there were other TVs throughout the house. We would definitely recommend this house for a relaxing week with family.

The best stay with glorious view

The location and views are unbelievable. The property is by far the best on this lake. The lake itself is so warm and crystal clear! The beds were all very comfortable and we had absolutely everything we needed. The jacuzzi tub was so relaxing and super clean! We definitely didn’t want to leave and will be back to enjoy more of this place. If you are thinking about booking, stop thinking and book it! You will not regret it.

Lake Life at its BEST!

The location was beautiful with the lake and mountains. The yard had plenty of space for relaxing, we brought our corn hole and enjoyed nights by the fire. The sounds from the bullfrogs, loons and peepers at night were harmonious. We brought our kayaks and used the ones provided for our son and daughter in law, it was nice to all get out together on the lake. We didn't catch much fishing.... LOL The house was set up was very nice, well stocked and no matter where you sat you had a view of the lake. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us.
