Lakeside Retreat
Clean, matched description, ton of space and a fenced in back yard for our dog. Perfect spot close to what we needed. Owners were attentive, friendly and super accommodating.

Great view. Comfortable.
Before I get into the property I want to caution future guests that Apple Maps gives you the wrong directions but Google Maps is correct. The neighborhood is a mixed bag but we didn’t have any issues. There are two garage bays, but one side was being used as storage. The garage isn’t deep and likely won’t accommodate an SUV or larger, but there is room for probably four cars outside if you don’t mind juggling. We stayed in the winter and definitely did not get to take advantage of all the amenities. Everything was nice, new, and clean. We did some cooking while there and found the facilities well stocked with all the pots, pans, and utensils required for basic needs, as well as the standard herbs and spices. It was all either new or very well cared for because I felt like I was the first one to use them. My wife thought the bed was too firm. I thought the bed was perfect. My daughter complained about being in the upstairs bedroom and the slope of the roof. But she is always complaining about something so I don’t know how much stock to put in her words. Our dog loved the fenced backyard where she was able to run and play. There is a fire pit back there that looked nice but we didn’t use it. The deck and the view were excellent. I’d like to go back in the summer. All the furniture was comfortable. We enjoyed the fireplace and TV in the living room. The welcome basket was a nice touch and the variety of K-cups and hot chocolate was appreciated. Thanks!

Lovely home base for a sentimental trip
We visited on a mostly rainy and chilly weekend in mid-November and still had a lovely time. We were visiting Cedar Lake where my parents honeymooned in 1956, so the trip was very special to us. And the owner, Nicky, could not have done more to make us comfortable. The house is lovely and has all the comforts you could want. Nicky was responsive and quick to answer questions we had prior to making our reservation, as well as after and while we were there. She stocked the house with staples and everything was clean when we arrived. Beds were very comfortable and the sunrise views were breathtaking!! I highly recommend getting up to see them. Everything was as described in the description and shown in the pictures. The location is great. Close enough to the things you might want to visit, but far enough away to have the privacy you might want. If we didn't live so far away (Florida), we'd definitely be back. Thanks, Nicky!
