We stayed here as a belated Christmas weekend. The house was amazing and had so many things to do including a great hot tub. Snow tubing at Andees was a great close by activity. We plan to stay there again next year.

My family of 13 including children ranging from 2 months to 13 years were very pleased with this cabin and all it had to offer. Despite it being very cold outside, the cabin had plenty of space and activities for all ages.
The view of the lake is wonderful.
It was a quick drive to the YMCA which had an open swim for the kids.
The kitchen was filled with plenty of dishes, cookware, and misc spices, coffee filters, etc…
Would definitely consider staying here again if we are in the area.

This property had everything we wanted for our family Christmas vacation! The house is so warm and welcoming - we felt right at home. The hot tub was a huge hit along with the theater/game room. Loved that the kitchen was fully stocked. The beds were very comfortable. We will be back!

We had a friends weekend getaway and the house was perfect for our needs. The kitchen was very well stocked with items needed for cooking, serving eating etc. The beds were very comfortable and the large table and island were perfect for gathering around. We had 2 vehicles so the garage was perfect for us to pull in and unload our stuff.
Would not hesitate to rent the property again in the future.

This was THE perfect place for our family to stay leading up to our wedding. With 5 children combined, ranging in ages from 15 - 24, we had space for everyone, a beautiful view from the various decks and SO many fun things to do inside as well! Ken was an amazing host, answering any questions we had and truly making us feel at home. We so loved the entire vibe of this house- warm, welcoming and perfect for entertaining. Thank you for making our special day even more amazing!

We had a family vacation here with kids of all ages. There’s a ton of things to do inside and outside. Everyone loved the paddle boards and kayaks. Fishing off the dock was so exciting for the kids. Thanks for letting us use your beautiful home to make some awesome family memories!!

We loved our stay at this beautiful lake home! We loved the comfy beds, the hot tub, the kayaks and paddle boards, the shuffleboard table, the lake view. We want to come back! Thank you so much for offering your home as a vacation rental. The house had more conveniences than we expected - 2 sets of washers/dryers, fully stocked kitchen, plenty of towels, etc. Communication with the host was easy and helpful. We will definitely stay here again!

Ken’s house is absolutely beautiful. My family had an amazing time relaxing by the lake, kayaking, paddle boarding and just hanging out together. Ken is an excellent host and responds to messages almost immediately. I would highly recommend staying on this property.

We have been renting houses for family reunions for more than 20 years, and this is, without a doubt, our favorite! It is spacious, gracious, and well-furnished! Ken could not have been easier to work with, and the neighbors were even complimentary when my son played his bagpipes on the dock. We were there in summer, but it is clear that it would be equally comfortable in winter. We'll be back!

We brought 5 seniors in night school to celebrate 13 years of Girls Scouts before they graduate. The home was large enough for seven of us to stay together but also have space when needed. The pictures do not do it justice with all of the amenities. The kitchen is incredibly well stocked and we had everything needed for baking and cooking. The hot tub and all the activities downstairs are incredible. Lovely fire pit with a great view of the lake. Ken was very quick with communication and pleasant to work with. We would love to come back! Thank you for having us.

Loved this get away. Has many extra's. Pool table, shuffle baord, theater area, poker table, Hot tub. The living room area is spacious and so relaxing. We did have some trouble with hot water when showering and there is floor heat in the basement so it was a bit chilly. But we would definitely stay here again. In fact one of us booked it for a second time already!

Property was beyond expectations
High end features, not just “rental grade” home was filled with features and games that I would choose for my own home. Owner was a pleasure with every communication “even on Xmas day” Family was all together and fully engaged with each other thanks to this property being exactly as advertised. Thanks Ken we will definitely be back!!!!!!!!

Ken was a great host. He was available for any questions we had. The house was wonderful and met our needs! Plenty of room for all the guests. The kitchen was large and the huge island was great for hanging around and playing games.

Ken's property was immaculate and incredibly spacious; the pictures don't really do it justice. Our stay (with 16 adults!) could not have been smoother; check in was easy, the bedrooms were spacious and comfortable and Ken was easy to reach at all times. I'd highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a well-located, large property with great amenities and a communicative host. 5 stars!

Our host was excellent to work with and would definitely stay at this location again. Great amenities, with lots of space for kids to explore and enjoy. Parents can also relax with each other and enjoy separation from busy kids having fun

Thanks a bunch for the great opportunity to utilize your property for a family/friend celebration. The amenities couldn’t have been more perfect to host a larger group and the pics don’t even do it justice. Will be back sooner than later! Thanks again.

We stayed here with my parents, sister and our combined 5 kids (ages 3-11). We didn’t get ideal weather and were so appreciative of the game rooms and indoor spaces to play during the rainy days. Once the weather improved, we enjoyed fishing off the dock, swimming and the standup paddle boards. The set up of the house was perfect for accommodating our group of 10 and we could have easily fit more! Thank you Ken for a great stay. We hope to return!

The perfect place for family vacation!
My husband's entire family met at this home for a week vacation on the lake. There was more than enough space for the 10 of us. The lake is fantastic- small but clear and not busy. We took the provided paddle boards and kayaks out multiple times. We also rented a pontoon and my brother in law brought his speed boat for water sports. Alexandria is only minutes away including restaurants, shopping, winery, and brewery. There are multi options for groceries, so just get your groceries when you arrive and skip packing all the coolers!
There are three things I want to emphasize about this property:
1. The kitchen has literally everything you could possibly need to cook and also ample space to store your food. There are two refrigerators and dishwashers (upstairs and down). And a grill just off the kitchen.
2. You will not be bored here. Besides the lake, there is: board games, shuffle board table, cornhole, firepit, pool table, theater room, poker/game table, and darts. Our teens/young adults were in heaven. Multiple tournaments were had!
3. Communication: The owners are fabulous. We communicated with them by text like we were old friends. I cannot say enough about them...we've stayed at several VRBO properties, and these two are in a class by themselves.
If this is the type of place you are looking for, do not hesitate to book asap!

Home away from home!
We had a wonderful stay - Ken was communicative and welcoming, and the house had everything we could possibly have needed, which made it truly feel like you were at home. It was probably the cleanest VRBO we have ever stayed at, and we appreciated the space, amenities and proximity to town - can’t wait to come back!

A big group of my siblings, children, and grandparents stayed the second weekend in June and we could not have had a better experience! The lake was still a little cold with our late spring, but we still had more than enough to do. From kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing off the dock, lounging in the hot tub, playing pool and shuffle board, watching movies as a group, or roasting s’mores by the fire, everyone in your group will have a good time. The entire house is extremely well supplied and accommodating, and we were just so content all weekend. A definite must!! Thank you.

Next time I wouldn't take so much, as the house is fully equipped. This worked well for a three generation family reunion. We had a wonderful time, and the host is terrific.
