We enjoyed our stay at the Talbot” house very much. It’s a beautiful home in a fairly quiet spot on one of my favorite lakes. It’s perfect for small family getaways. The property owners are attentive to their guests and notified us of an issue with our original booking in time for us to reschedule for a later date.
We have stayed here previously and will continue to do so.

We had such a fantastic time! Swimming, fishing, enjoying time together as a family. We can’t thank you enough for sharing your home, you simply thought of everything. Everyone had a blast!

We had a splendid time at this beautiful lake house with our extended family. It was a quintessential summer family vacation. My 7 year old caught her first fish on the dock with her grandfather. My 9 year old mastered some paddling skills as she navigated the cove with great delight. We did some lake swims and SUPing in the early mornings. The lawn was the perfect spot for star gazing! The house design makes it easy to connect with family and have a little retreat and quiet time when needed. We were thrilled to be there and appreciated the quick answer to our questions. It was also great to use the kayaks and canoe to get out on the water. We hope to get back soon!!

This was our fourth vacation stay at your home! We enjoy it more each time we visit. Love the house and Inks is our favorite lake. The location of the home in a cove is perfect for swimming and kayaking.
Thanks for sharing your home with us again. Looking forward to our next visit!

This lake house is lovely, comfortable, and very well stocked. It has everything you need and then some. We had three kids with us and they loved playing in the lake and the small beach area at the bottom of the steps. Make sure to bring your fishing gear with you.

We loved our stay in this home! The yard was nice and the location on the lake was quiet! My favorite perk was the boat dock is perfect for sitting out and enjoying the evening without the sun on us while we fished! 🎣

Absolutely wonderful property, even better hosts. Relaxing weekend of fishing. When we had a problem, the hosts were right on top of it and were so gracious. I'm nervous about telling the truth in this review, because they will get so busy I won't be able to schedule it for next time. Just book this property, you'll have a great stay. But, don't tell anyone else, OK?

We had a fantastic stay at this lake house! In addition to the consistently high water level that allowed for boating, canoeing, and fishing at our leisure, the house was well appointed with everything everyone needed for a long weekend getaway. Well-stocked DVDs, puzzles, and games were a fun, bonus surprise. All rooms were well appointed and the kitchen had everything our pro-chef needed to prepare Easter dinner and more. It was a lovely stay all around!

As always we had a great stay! We have been staying at Talbots House, at least once a year, for a number of years and if never disappoints. Plenty of room and the house is well stocked with necessities. My mom is 87 and she has no problem getting around and loves to join us at the lake.

We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend at Richard and Nancy's place. We were 3 couples with two teenagers and had plenty of room. The house has everything we needed and the dock/lake access were super nice. We've been visiting Inks Lake for 15 years and this is one of our favorite places to stay. Highly recommend!

Wonderful place to relax with family!
We stayed for a long weekend with another family. We have young boys who loved jumping off the boat doc and riding in the kayaks. The house was clean and comfortable. Plenty of towels and blankets. The kitchen had all the essentials and more, you don't need to bring any pots, pans or basic spices, they have you taken care of for sure. We loved our stay and will probably try and book the same place again.

Superb
This was by far the best vacation spot we have had in a long time. We will definitely book again for our summer family vacation. It was so peaceful, the lake was so accessible and the house had the basics and then some. Eeverything was perfection. We loved reading the guest book and how so many families before us had the same experience we did. A big plus was “precious” who we found was actually named “pixie.” Mornings by the late was just what the heart and soul needed, and evenings star gazzing on the boat dock with the kiddos was amazing. A+ for our visit.

Absolutely perfect, can't wait to come back!
This property was stunning. From the rustic architecture to the views of the lake from every room, it was a dream. We all slept sop comfortably and had everything we needed. I think we brought too much food!
The kayaks and canoe were so nice. Being able to get out on the water every day was a treat. The wildlife and sounds of the bugs were incredible.
I plan on enjoying this beautiful home again! Thank you to the Talbot's!

This was our 3rd visit to this stunning lake house! The location is perfect, we enjoyed swimming, fishing (caught some perch and catfish off the dock) and kayaking….this house is a family favorite of ours. We hope to continue our “week at the lake” for many years to come! Thank you Nancy and Richard for providing such a beautiful experience for our family.

Beautiful property
Our family had a very relaxing stay. Loved the fabulous views from the house! The covered porch is nice and has ceiling fans to keep you comfortable. Big yard for lawn games and deer visits. Enjoyed the easy lake access, kayaks and canoe, and fishing in the cove.

Loved the access to the lake and the kayaks! The house is nicely done and the beds are soft. The only "down sides" - the drive in is basically a dirt road and the driveway is super steep. Also, there is no insulation in the ceiling, so you hear every movement upstairs when in the master bed downstairs. Otherwise, LOVED this place and would highly recommend it.

This is a beautiful home right on Inks Lake. The kitchen has everything needed to prepare a meal. There is also a washer and dryer. The living area is open to the kitchen and also looks out to the lake. The covered patio off the living room is a great hang out space. The home has a master downstairs and 2 bedrooms upstairs. The upstairs bedrooms each have a full or queen bed along with additional beds for children in the room. The bathroom is a nice size, BUT it is the only bathroom for the these 2 upstairs bedrooms. Overall this is a very nice home right on the lake w easy access to the water.
