Beautiful and clean cabin. We rented a pontoon for the lake. It was good for fishing, but shallow.

Nice family stay. Enjoyed cabin and quiet lake area.

Wonderful Secluded Lake House

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The house was beautiful and perfect for our group of 8. The canoe and kayaks were great for getting out on the lake! It is quiet and secluded, ideal for a week of relaxation!

Loved our stay - perfect for my birthday retreat

Swan Cove had everything we needed - easy access to the lake with a dock, natural beauty, quiet solitude plus a spacious, well equipped home. We enjoyed watching all the birds (swans, eagles, osprey, loons, hummingbirds, etc) and the stars! We look forward to a return trip.

Amazing Stay

We love this property! This was our second time staying, and we definitely hope to be back. The house is very spacious with many sitting areas to gather The weather was perfect, so we were able to spend plenty of time outside, which was very private and peaceful. The large deck and lawn gave plenty of space to play yard games and the dock provided a great swimming area. There were also 2 kayaks and a canoe to use. Having access to the large garage was incredibly convenient for being able to park our UTV inside. Highly recommend this property!

Beautiful home on a quiet lake

This home is off the beaten path. The large lot makes you feel like you are miles from anyone. The views of the lake were breathtaking at sunset and as we kayaked and canoed. The house was spacious and comfortable and allowed plenty of room to space out or be together as a family. Thank you for an excellent place to call home for a week!

Quiet and private

This property is perfect if you are looking for a quiet and private get away. The home is beautiful and spacious! The lake is quiet and perfect for kayaking. Kayaks and life vests were provided which was nice. If you are looking for a recreational lake (skiing, tubing, etc...) this is not the lake for you. If you are looking for quiet and privacy then this is the perfect place for you.

Wonderful Experience!

This property was absolutely wonderful- the crashing waves were such a highlight! This rental is totally private, and you do not see neighbors on either side. The house is adorable, and fully stocked with games and things to do. We went to Kohler and Harrington State Parks- each just a short trip away. Such a great place to visit. The house does have a slight musty smell, however it was easily handled by throwing open the numerous windows and letting the lake air flood in. I would definitely recommend this lovely rental!!

Love lake life

Wonderful vacation home on a lovely lake. We stayed in every night for dinner; the kitchen was well appointed. The house has heated floors, which were wonderful at night, but be aware that they put off some heat! Nice bedrooms and baths. Only complaint is that the house does NOT have WiFi. Not sure how I missed this. We hiked every day- Ironton and the Porkies. Great home base (about 50 min to hikes in Ironton, a little over an hour for the Porkies). Used the kayaks and the canoe almost every evening. The sunsets were incredible! Nice quiet location. Fall colors were spectacular.

Up North Getaway

The property is on a great location! The house is very comfortable, and almost too warm. The windows soak up so much heat, along with the heated floor, we never needed to build a fire. The outdoor firepit was lovely and the stars and trees did their part. Suggestions would be to have wood for guests to burn. We had to forage for sticks. Also, there are lawn chairs that can be brought down to the fire, so the old bench should be removed since it's not suitable for sitting on anymore. It is a great location for going out to find the amazing waterfalls that are all in the vicinity. No WIFI, so there was no music. A MP3 station would be a nice touch, so people could have something to listen to while they cook and play cards.

Gorgeous home, but disappointed there was no hot water!

The property was gorgeous overall, clean, spacious, etc. and the property mgmt did allow us to check in a couple hours before normal check in time. Had it not been for the alarm, which randomly went off a few times our first evening (little deal), and no hot water (big deal) I would have given this place 5 stars. Pretty disappointing and not a good feeling for all of us to go two days without showering given no one wanted to take an ice cold shower. I notified the property mgmt group about as they really should address/fix before their next guests stay there. Not sure they cared all that much that our stay was impacted by this.

Beautiful House and Location

Everything was fantastic! The house was very roomy, clean, and comfortable. There was plenty of toys and space upstairs for the kids to play. The location was beautiful; the leaves were starting to change color which was nice. Even though it was a little chilly, we were still able to enjoy plenty of camp fires and take the kayaks out.

Super Clean House and Great View

We had a little trouble finding the property with the directions that were given because they had the road to find as Lake Shore not Lakeshore. Once we found the house we were pleasantly pleased! We rent houses quite frequently for vacation and this house was one of the CLEANEST we have rented!! The view is spectacular and very relaxing!

Gorgeous lakeside property to unwind / unplug

Everything about this property is exactly as described! The home itself is gorgeous - very spacious and well-laid-out. Pantry is well stocked with staples and kitchen is well-equipped for cooking. The kayaks were a ton of fun, and the view of the lake from the dock at sunset was stunning. NOTE 1: They're not kidding about the lack of internet - AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile all had borderline useless service, and there was no WiFi available in the home. You must be prepared to fully unplug. NOTE 2: The mosquitos during summer are dense, aggressive, and exist both inside and outside the home. Be prepared to shower in bug repellant or suffer. We had one minor issue which Vacasa / host were quick to reply to and take care of.

Christmas Getaway

This is a beautiful home in a great location! The house was very clean and had everything we needed. There was even holiday decorations and a Christmas tree which created a very welcoming and relaxing atmosphere for our holiday stay. The fireplace and bonfire pit were our favorite! (We had wood delivered from a local firewood provider.) Secluded location but yet close enough to skiing and other activities. Amazing place to spend the holidays - Thank you! We will be back!

Gorgeous secluded property

We stayed at this house in September 2021; Myself, my husband, my 8 year old son and my mom. We read the reviews ourselves many times, and basically everything we read was true. Its a gorgeous, and very spacious, house. The setting is amazing if you are looking for seclusion. There are some things that I would say are most helpful to know, if you are looking to book this place. *We had a hard time finding out about cell coverage before we reserved this place. I will tell you that we have AT&T. We did have coverage, most of the time, at the cabin. But we are talking about 1 maybe 2 bars. It was intermittent and definitely not reliable. Since there is no wifi here, you are truly disconnected. *The house is isolated in a big way. You turn off of a 'highway' and travel about 10 minutes down a gravel road to get to the very end, where this cabin is. Leaving and coming back multiple times in a day is really more trouble than its worth. *The cabin does have supplies, but I would suggest not relying on those. For example, there was no laundry soap for us so we had to use our own. That's not an issue, as long as you prepare for it. So I would bring dish soap, laundry soap, all your normal supplies. *The water here off the dock/shoreline is really lovely, but very rocky. I would highly recommend water shoes as that then made it possible to travel quite far off the shore. Its shallow so you can walk a long way! *Bring food, make your own meals, there are very few food places anywhere within a reasonable distance and none of those are safe if you are very COVID cautious like we are. *We had no issues with the home being dirty. All I would say here is that we stayed near the end of the summer season and the kitchen was weirdly stocked with everything other renters had left over the summer. So if you would enjoy fairly full cabinets with leftover items from other people, this is a great plus! For us, we wanted cabinet space to put away the stuff we brought but every cabinet was full so it all just sat out on the counter for a week. *The freezer will leak on you. Seems like they turn it off or very low between customers which means we had water on the floor several times. We eventually just put a towel down and kept it there the whole stay. *The front door keypad has an odd feature I thought I would mention. Once you enter the code to lock it, if you try to pull the door (to check the lock) the keypad screams at you. It is STARTLING!
