Breathe in the fresh mountain air and walk down to the dock for the break of sunrise. Hike around the lake to enjoy the wildlife or cast a line out to fish. Watch the sunset over the lake.

Had a nice 3 night stay. Boulder Bay location is very nice, quiet, secluded, with even lake views from driveway. There is a large lot in front so our kids had plenty of space to play in the snow. The kitchen is well equipped and appliances are all updated. The bedrooms are not huge but plenty of beds to go around. Overall would highly recommend.
This vacation rental was very cozy and the house is well taken care of. The host is really responsive to any questions we had. I had a group of 6 and it was perfect. I was able to walk to the lake from the house without any issues. I would definitely stay again. Thank you Douglas!
The cabin was amazing! I rented this amazing cabin for 4th of July for me and my adult children and grandchildren. The cabin is wonderful with all of the amenities! Full size shampoo and soaps. Pantry with spices and all the utensils you need to cook. My grandchildren loved all the DVD movies and the smart TV as well. The outside area is fabulous! The hosts are wonderful to communicate with and I will definitely stay here again! If you are looking for a full stocked cabin on the lake….look no further!! This is a gem!
We loved staying here! It's a perfect layout for a large family or group. There are two bedrooms upstairs (one has 3 beds so it's great for kids) and a master downstairs. There's a little nook by the kids' room with a TV and bean bag chairs, which we loved for downtime. The kitchen is really nice and well-appointed. A large dining table accommodates everyone. Three bathrooms is also a bonus for two families or a large group. We had a very cozy and lovely time here! The woodsy cabin feel is exactly what we were looking for. The hosts are delightful and responsive. You can walk to the lake from the house, which is also really nice. We will stay here again and I recommend this property!
