The kitchen is well stocked. I love that there is 3 full bathrooms. The house is clean and we appreciated having a boat slip and launch so close by. ##### Tonia S. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shelly E., Big Bend, WI Jul 21, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Just the Stay we all Needed Stayed at the property with 6 adults, 3 kids (ages 4, 1, & 1) and 3 small dogs, and had a very relaxing time. The layout of space on the first floor is very family friendly allowing for the grandparents to sleep away from the grandkids. The open concept is also very nice - we did not feel cramped at all. Having 2 bathrooms on the first level and 1 in the basement was convenient. (3) practically new, not tippy kayaks were available and load into the lake was very easy at the property. We brought our boat. Be sure to use the slip on pier C (to the RIGHT of the property) when facing the lake. The walk to the pier is very easy and the boat launch (5-10 minutes depending on pace) including a small beach was great for a short break with littles. Fishing on the lake is tough and there are many shallow points, so be sure to take a map or follow other boats when picking up speed. The proximity to Buckhorn State Park is amazing. 5 minutes to get to the beach, where the sand and water were very clear for swimming. Our favorite part was the quietness of the property. Surrounded by mature trees - it felt as if no one else was around. While the road is paved to enjoy long walks, it was fun to admire the area and other homes/cottages along the lake. We did have an "uninvited guest" while staying, but contacted the owner and appreciated the cleaner bringing over traps immediately. AAHHH cottage life. I also provided a few suggestions, including blackout or some type of drapes for some of the bedrooms, knowing the owner took over this property this year. He was very accepting of the recommendations and was very responsive to all my questions before arrival and while vacationing. We would definitely return! ##### Shelly E.

The house was fairly secluded so the kids could make noise and not have to worry about being told to be quiet! Would definitely stay here again! ##### Ellen K.

Jul 5, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Snapper weekend We couldn’t check in till late for the cleaning crew and folded the laundry we needed. Stuff happens. Had an unexpected snapping turtle visit and lay eggs throughout the property. Otherwise it’s always a great stay on our favorite lake. ##### Stephanie S. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Holly H. Jul 3, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Eddie was responsive to our needs. The house was not ready when we arrived, we waited until 8pm before we could enter the house. Eddie did end up taking off a nights cost for the delay. He was responsive when the smoke detector in the utility room was beeping (door was locked so we couldn’t do anything), he sent over the cleaning lady to take care of it. The property was clean and secluded and fit our needs. I would stay here again. He also allowed us to bring both our dogs, which was wonderful. ##### Holly H.
