Compass Lake house is outstanding!

I loved having coffee in the early am out on the "Paradise" pier. A perfect name for an idyllic place to sit and enjoy the surrounding water and the sounds of nature.

Great location

The house was really nice and comfortable. The lake view was amazing and the lake was very nice for boat rides around the lake. The host was fast to reply when we text. We are looking forward to staying again.

GREAT HOUSE......PERFECT FOR OUR NEEDS

Home was well-equipped and large enough to comfortably house our group of 6 adults. Host was very kind and helpful. Bedrooms have tv's which made it nice to lounge around in our rooms. We wish we had more time to enjoy the lake and sunsets but maybe next time when we return.

Family Friendly getaway

We were in town for a funeral & booked this place to make the most of a sad time. It is very family friendly with enough space for the kids & grown folk to enjoy separately. We loved having the lake toys to use & the ping pong table. There are few minor things that could use some work but did not take away from our stay at all!

Relaxing Lake House

We are extending our family vacation stay for several more weeks because we love it here and don't want to leave! The sunsets are absolutely gorgeous right out the back door overlooking the lake. The community is friendly and The Cove Restaurant close by has great food. The owner is super nice and has gone out of his way to be helpful.

Family Fun

We had a wonderful 5 night/6 day stay here at Compass Lake visiting family. Wish we could’ve stayed longer! It was the perfect location for our family of 6. The only thing I didn’t care for was the detached basement. I must’ve missed that it had its own entrance in the listing, as my children had planned to sleep in the bunk beds downstairs. I just didn’t feel good about my littles being separated completely from us. The main floor is very roomy and was perfect for what we needed. The view and sunsets were beautiful and the dock was our favorite hang out! We used the detached basement for family to stay with us so it all worked out in the end! I did not enjoy conversing with Vacasa as it was always with a new person and they would not allow early check in. However, Benjamin, one of the owners who was the local host for us, was a huge help and allowed us to check in early and check out late. This really was a big blessing to us having driven all night from Michigan and having littles. THANK YOU! We most definitely will be back! 🌴☀️
