Just booked for our third trip!

Great Lake house

It was a very nice and peaceful place.

Our family was extremely happy with our accommodations at Hillen House during the week of the 4th of July. When we arrived, we were greeted by the property manager and given a full, guided-tour of the property. The property manager was friendly and informative as he told us about the house, the lake and the surrounding area. The house is a unique design with a wonderful breezeway between the two sides. We enjoyed spending time just sitting in the breezeway looking out over the beautiful lake. The setting feels very private and we didn't feel crowded at all, whether we were inside or outside. And speaking of outside, if you have a boat and you like watersports or fishing, it really doesn't get any better than this. The dock and boathouse are outstanding and there is a nice, sandy-bottom swimming area with easy access into and out of the water. High-quality composite decking along with covered areas to relax and enjoy the view made the dock one of our favorite areas. Also, we were very impressed that the owners had installed an electrical safety system that monitors the water around the dock and gives off a warning in the event there is a dangerous electrical current. This is a wonderful safety system to protect swimmers or anyone in the water around the dock. The home is well furnished and the beds were very comfortable. The design of the house allows everyone to easily gather together or retreat to their separate spaces for privacy. The kitchen is nicely equipped and there is a large dining room table to gather around for eating or playing games. Compass Lake is very nice and there are wonderful views from most areas of the house. Overall, it was a fantastic place to stay and we hope to be able to return for another relaxing vacation!
