A Dream Lake Home!!

Review Submitted: November 28, 2011 Date of Stay: November 2011
The home is stunning as you approach the driveway. Literally breathtaking. The pictures do not do it justice. What a great place to relax with your family and/or friends. My wife loved the gourmet kitchen. The place has incredible woodwork throughout, and is beautifully decorated. The only thing this home lacks is a good A/V sytem. The T.V. is awkwardly placed in the living room (hard to see from half of the room), and if you like music as much as we do then you should bring a Sound Dock with you. We spent our Thanksgiving lounging by the fireplace, playing board games, taking long walks in the quiet neighborhood, and of course eating more then we should have :-). We also spent a lot of time outside by the bonfire, and playing yard games with the kids. I can't wait to experience this place in the summer. We love the water, and this home has it all. Thank you so much for the opportunity to experience this one of a kind home!

Awesome Summer Vacation

Review Submitted: August 29, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Thank you so much for opening up your home to us for our Summer Vacation. We have rented alot of vacation homes and yours was the best by far. The house is so beautiful but yet so comfortable and homey. It was so great every night to sit out at the Fire pit and be so close to the Lake. We did lots of stuff, we fished almost every day and caught so many fish. We found a super spot on Trout Lake where we just constantly pulled them in. We tried lots of other places but we found the fishing hole. There was so much to do, from the fishing, to putt putt, to even going to the Casino in Walker twice. That was so much fun. My daughters boyfriend on the second trip to the Casino won a jackpot of $1660 on a slot machine, it was awesome. The beds were so comfortable, I just can't tell you how much fun we had for our 10 days. We will be back!!!!!

Review Submitted: January 19, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009
We stayed here in January and it was the perfect getaway from the Cities. The house is absolutely stunning. Wonderfully constructed and every room is beautiful. The view out of the living room windows to the lake with a fire roaring in the large fireplace was about as perfect as we could have imagined. Comfortable for 10 people with plenty of bathroom and bed space. Only wish we could have stayed longer.
