A beautiful little gem!
Renting this property was a pleasure. The owner responded very quickly to all correspondence. Bathrooms and kitchen are nicely updated and bedrooms are a nice size. The office was very comfortable for our guest that needed to do some work remotely. The yard is beautiful. We enjoyed the water feature and the fire pit. Beautiful views from the front and back. We definitely plan to stay here again in the future.

Great location, lake view. Nice outdoor space.
Great Lake view. Walking distance to nice beach. Fished from pier right across the street. Kayaked on the lake. Saw deer, swans, ducks. Nice outdoor dining area with water feature providing a soothing background. Grandkids enjoyed a tour of Sterling Mine, fireworks, Independence Day parade and waterski show downtown. Enjoyed ice cream at Alpine Creamery and visited the candy store downtown several times. Close driving distance to boardwalk and good restaurants. House was immaculate and all needs were anticipated. Beds were very comfortable. A very relaxing vacation. Very pleasant dealing with the owner.

Relaxing Family Getaway
Our family (2 adults, 2 kids and our dog) had a wonderful, relaxing week at this Lake Mohawk house. The beautifully landscaped fenced-in yard was a highlight - we ate all of our meals on the shaded patio with a view of the lake, our boys loved searching for frogs in the little stream/pond, and our dog could safely explore off-leash. Our kids also enjoyed playing and swimming at the beach a short walk away. The house was very clean and comfortable and was well-stocked with paper products, soaps, and basics needed to prepare meals, and there is a grocery store and plenty of restaurants a short drive away.

Relaxing Getaway!
We had a wonderful stay at Elemer's house. The property is gorgeous, the house was very clean, the beach was a short walk away, and Elemer was a very responsive host. The house and yard were perfect for our family of four (2 children ages 7 and 9) and our small dog. Lake Mohawk is beautiful and the town offered good restaurant options. There are also many great places to hike within a 45 minute drive. We didn't want to leave!
