This home was a meet-in-the-middle for our extended family to gather and celebrate our grandfathers 90th birthday! We looked forward to this trip since the spring and it did not disappoint. Our days as the lake were warm for December and the kids enjoyed playing outside so much. We came very prepared to cook for a crowd, but Jessica has stocked this kitchen well!! Even great leftover containers which was so helpful. The gate on the porch was great too for our adventurous toddlers who would have been harder to corral without it. It was wonderful and will be a memory that we’ll treasure. Thanks to Jessica and family for hosting us!

This property is absolutely perfect and spacious for large groups. It was peaceful, clean, and has all the amenities needed for a relaxing getaway. The adults and children had the BEST time. We did not want to come home! We are already planning our next trip.

Ten years ago when our mother passed away, the six if us siblings and spouses decided to make a concerted effort to get together each year by renting a house for a few days to accommodate all of us. Emeral Cove significantly surpasses all of our other rentals thus far! The view is amazing...at sunrise, mid day and sun set! Some of us simply enjoyed to water view, while others dove in to the chilly May temperatures and others took the kayak out for a run around the lake. The location is also perfect for hiking, table games, movies, reading, etc. There was something for each of us to enjoy while we were there! The 5000 foot house has more than enough bedrooms and bathrooms to meet our needs and plenty of inside and outside places for us to gather in groups for reminiscing or for some time of solitude. The house is well appointed with every amenity imaginable, but the kitchen is especially well stocked, filled with all that one needs for cooking and grilling! Jessica patiently answered every question we had before arriving and proved to be the ideal host! We could not have asked for better. The six of us and our spouses left, determined that Emerald Cove will be a place we WILL gather again!

This was the perfect place for our young married couple’s retreat. Our group of 16 had plenty of room to spread out or gather together as a group. The kitchen was well stocked with supplies and had space for everyone to eat together. The beds were comfortable. The home included a huge assortment of activities that we thoroughly enjoyed. Being able to use the kayaks and paddle boards was amazing. Thank you, Jessica, for providing this wonderful retreat home. We loved every minute of our stay!

Non-summer rental. Lake was empty as expected, but the house was perfect. Plenty to keep the kids entertained. Close enough to get basic amenities and for day activities, but secluded enough to enjoy the peacefulness. House was as advertised, very nice. Return trip in the future.
