Family away time

Douglas was very helpful with any questions I had and answered very quickly before and during our stay. This property had everything we were looking for. Lots of space for my wife and I and our two adult children and their partners to each have their own rooms. We brought too much of our things as everything was provided. Towels, dishes, cookware, blankets, etc The lake was beautiful to look at and kayak on. Everyone enjoyed the water. Fishing was unproductive but we enjoyed trying. Each night we spent hours by the fire listening to music and talking. I would recommend this rental to anyone looking for a quiet and peaceful place to spent time with your group.

The home was in a excellent location for Lily Dale and other neighboring towns. The home had extras in the kitchen (spices and water) and kayaks, row boat, and indoor and outdoor games. My communication with Douglas was great, any questions I had he responded immediately. The sunporch was our favorite spot, just the view of the lake was beautiful.

Our stay at this beautiful lakefront cottage was amazing. The moment we opened the door, we were greeted with stunning lakefront views. The rather large well stocked kitchen made it very easy to cook and eat all our family meals. This cottage truly felt like home away from home. Highly recommend this cottage for anyone looking to unwind and relax by the water right outside the back door!

The house was beautiful. Every window facing the back of the house is lake view. We sat and just watched the water and wildlife. A total home away from home but so much better. You go to sleep and hear the gentle laps of the water. There is also a large porch to sit and just enjoy. This is a place that you will always remember your stay.

Home Away From Home

It was the perfect place for our family. The three bedrooms were very spacious. The open floor concept is perfect for entertaining and socializing. The backyard is shady and the lake is peaceful. For those with children, the park and public beach are two houses away. The park offers a basketball court and pickelball court, and the beach has an area for swimming that is supervised by lifeguards. All in all, we felt like we were staying at relative's house more than a rental.

Quiet Retreat

It was our 30th wedding anniversary and the host left us a bottle of champagne and cheese and crackers at the house! What a lovely surprise! The house was exactly as pictured. It was nice sitting outside watching the ducks, geese and boats passing by as well as the sun reflecting off the water. We both used the kayaks that were at the house. It was our first time kayaking, and we enjoyed ourselves. We cooked out on the provided grill too. If you’re looking to get away from it all, this is a very relaxing place. Everything was provided.
