The lake has a variety of fish including a 28" & 25" walleye that were caught & released (pictures taken : ) while enjoying some night fishing. The owners are easy to work with and quick to respond.

The water is awesome and depth was a peace of mind while watching the three little ones play on the dock and dip in and out of the water. My oldest boy caught several bass all over the lake and saw a variety of fish in the water during our stay. There wasn’t a table we didn’t use… We were ALL able to have breakfast, lunch, and dinner together; be it eating downstairs, upstairs, out on the deck, or down by the water! This place was worth every penny! The owners were so easy to communicate with! We will be back and next time for longer! ##### Cheyenne P. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anna W.

Toys, plastic plates, utensils and cups, etc. The playground there was great. The hosts were pretty quick to respond if we needed anything. A couple minor safety things: none of the plates were actually microwave safe which was pretty frustrating when we were doing leftovers and the lawn person came to mow the lawn during nap time without any notice. Totally get mowing, but some heads up would've been helpful as our kids were playing outside and the person mowing came very close to them. ##### Anna W.

It is a beautiful home, with a lot of room to spread out. Having two large tables, one off the kitchen and one on the lower level, was great for us. We used one for meals and one for a craft table. The kitchen is very well stocked with everything you could need for cooking for a large group. The extra stove and fridge in the lower level came in handy too. The highlight for the kids was the playground equipment and the pontoon. It was wonderful to have the boat included! Wonderful memories! ##### Deb D.

We had 8 adults & 7 young children. It accommodated all of us comfortably. The play set, beautiful yard, ping-pong table and swimming off the dock kept the kids busy outside most of the day. The outdoor spaces (covered deck, patio, bonfire patio) allowed for great places to gather in all weather conditions. The lot was private and the minimal interaction we had with neighbors was friendly. The lake was very clean & clear. The pontoon was a great addition to the weekend. I can’t say enough about how well organized the hosts were. Great communication. Very prompt in responding ahead of our stay and upon arrival.

The home had so much more than we were expecting like a kitchen with just about any gadget you could need and toys/games for the kids. We loved having the pontoon for taking boat rides and the water in front of the cabin was shallow for the kids to swim. While there is no sand for building sand castles at the property, the public beach is a few minutes away. The home is located just minutes from the heart of Alexandria, so is close to shopping and activities. We liked having 2 living rooms so there was plenty of space to spread out and we cherished our dinners on the covered porch overlooking the lake. The owners/staff were very pleasant to work with and responsive. ##### Amber H. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa H.

We were looking for six bedrooms, property on the water, spacious and well equipped kitchen and within 3 hours of the airport. This property checked off the boxes. We love to cook together and filled coolers before arriving . We never got into our vehicles in our Wed to Sunday trip. The pontoon was a bonus, and we enjoyed leisurely trips around the lake, wind permitting . The weather was warm enough for a few of us to hop in for a swim. We enjoyed the covered porch and having a fire as well. The property owners were quickly responsive. Things other renters might want to know which may or may not be important to you : the property is very close to I 94 and within ear shot of traffic. Some of the beds were less comfortable than others, impacting light sleepers which we admittedly are . All in all we had an amazing time and are considering this property or another by these owners next year . ##### Kathy F.

It was absolutely nothing less than fantastic! The accommodations were spot on with the pictures and in my opinion were even better in person. The owners were absolutely fantastic with regards to communication and seemed genuinely happy to have us in their home. We plan to return soon to enjoy this incredible space! ##### Lara L.

We enjoyed our visit. ##### Amy M.

Our family included 6 children under 8 yrs old and the amenities for children were so appreciated with high chairs, cribs and playground. It is on a beautiful site on the lake,sunsets were awesome. The Owens are very communicative and answered our questions very promptly. A great place! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura W.
