Second stay was FANTASTIC!

We loved this house and the ease of communication with the hosts so much that we came back. The new loft was a wonderful addition and worked great for our older kids. We would definitely come back again!

Great view

Great view of the lake. Nicely maintained house. Front bedrooms where a bit stuffy at night with no air conditioning. Was a bit taken aback with having to strip beds and put in washer when $150 cleaning fee is charged.

Quiet dead end house with great beach

Had a great time! House is at the end of quiet dead end road. Beach is very nice. This property is on the calm side of the lake. House has everything you need to cook inside and out. House had no A/C but owner has plenty of fans around and open windows to a nice evening breeze. Newer appliances work great. Large great room for everyone to hang out with in evening. We’re there 5 nights and enjoyed every one. Only negative if there is one is that the house only has 1 bath, but we worked around it. Would stay again!!

Beautiful view

Cute house, well stocked and lots of potential for a family looking to have a gathering. Our stay wasn't as we expected, The weather was rainy and chilly the whole stay and we had to stay inside most of the time. We had quite a few family members pass through for about a half hour and I was contacted immediately upon their arrival; which means you are watched very carefully. They do allow pets which is nice but make sure to take pictures when you arrive because there is staining in the carpets. There is no seating around the fire pit so you have to bring your own and I believe there are more devices watching you than just the outside camera hidden in the top corner of the house. The neighbors when they did come home watched us out their window the whole time and made us uncomfortable. All in all it served our purpose for far away relatives to meet up but weather kept is all inside.

So Disappointed

Owner is nice and responsive. However, for the money, I would’ve expected a lot more. There is black mold growing all over the side of the freezer door. There were ants everywhere, especially in the kitchen. (We we’re VERY clean with our food and always immediately cleaned up). Multiple times we would have ants crawling on us. The giant rat trap right by the entry door, nice traps, and ant traps are very off putting, not to mention extremely unsafe with a baby and small dog. Be prepared to spend the majority of your morning cleaning your beach of all the food pop before you can even walk on it. I was hesitant to even let my child play in the water or sand - it was disgusting and worrisome about the health risks of animal feces all over. (I’m a Registered Nurse and my husband works for the DNR) We cleaned an orange scum ring out of the tub ourselves before we would put out baby in it. I wish I could upload the pictures I took. So very disappointed. We left early

Coffee on the dock for sunrise. Kayaking, fishing, swimming, and sand toys all day long. Campfire and s'mores for sunset. Rinse and repeat. We had a great weekend here and would definitely stay again.

Perfect place for a quick getaway, we wish we would have booked for longer than we did. The view is absolutely breathtaking. The house was very clean, great communication with owners, and we had everything we needed while we were there. Perfect place to stay with kids.

Perfect Family Getaway

We had a wonderful time up at this lake house, my only complaint is that we didn't stay longer! The view was beautiful & we loved being at the quiet end of the lake with our own beach. Amenities like a crib & high chair made it super easy to travel with our 1.5 year old. My parents already booked for a week next summer & we already can't wait to go back!

Quiet lake, sany beach, responsive owners

The lake is clear and clean with a sandy beach. Minimal boat traffic, so it's pretty quiet. Owners were responsive and helpful. Cottage is modest and clean. Town of Lake City doesn't really have much to offer in way of shops or restaurants, so be prepared to cook and relax in the cottage.
