The home and property were perfect for our family vacation. 2 adults and three teens had more than enough space to relax, come together, and settle in our separate spaces for downtime. The house is very well stocked with kitchen supplies, bedding, towels, basic cleaning supplies, soaps, BBQ tools, and more. The home was very clean and well kept, with great extra touches throughout. Tons of outdoor seating spaces and options as well, which we appreciated during the beautiful weather the week we were there.
Galway Lake itself is a quiet and serene escape, with no motor boats or loud groups allowed. Fishing, kayaking, swimming, and floating on the provided inflatables were activities we all enjoyed daily! The waterfront area and dock provided plenty of space and options for everyone to enjoy their various water or waterside activities throughout our stay.
The fire pit, and initial stack of provided firewood, served as the evening relaxation spot. But, do bring bug spray as the fire smoke was not enough to keep the nighttime bugs away. We also used the provided 4 kayaks and row boat, which were great fun! This lake would be perfect for paddle boarding as well, if you have one to bring along.
The owners suggestions for local stores and restaurants were great. We did try the owner recommended Village Pizzeria and Ristorante and would highly recommend you have a meal or two there. The local contact for the home, Sheila, is fantastic and very responsive to any questions or concerns.
Would definitely rent this property again!
