Beautiful view of the lake from the cottage and the deck. All 4 bedrooms had comfortable beds and the deck furniture was the best we have ever used on our numerous VRBO adventures. The pontoon was great to have available at any time and we used it to go fishing and enjoy the public islands Long Lake has. Loved the sunrise over the lake.
The Ultimate Lakefront Getaway! We had an absolutely incredible stay at this beautiful lake house! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by how clean, cozy, and perfectly set up everything was for a fun week on the water. The house itself is extremely comfortable. With 4 cozy bedrooms, everyone in our group had plenty of space, and the beds were incredibly comfortable—we all slept like logs after busy days outside. The 1.5 bathrooms worked out great for our group and were spotless upon arrival. The outdoor setup is where this property truly shines: • The Deck: Absolutely amazing! It’s the perfect spot for morning coffee, group dinners, or just lounging while taking in the beautiful lake views. • Fun on the Water: Having access to the paddleboards was a massive hit for morning paddles along the shoreline. • The Pontoon: A fantastic, reliable boat that made exploring the lake and enjoying afternoon cruises effortless. • The Fire Pit: We ended every single night gathered around the outdoor fire pit, roasting marshmallows under the stars. The location is incredibly convenient, making it easy to get around while still feeling like a peaceful, private escape. If you are looking for a clean, fun, and relaxing lake vacation with top-notch amenities, look no further. We cannot wait to come back!
An Absolute Gem for Families! We stayed here as a group of six (four adults and two energetic young kids), and it was the perfect layout for us. Between the spacious interior and the fantastic outdoor setup, everyone had plenty of room to stretch out and relax. A huge bonus: every single bed was exceptionally comfortable, which is a rare find in a rental! The waterfront setup is unbeatable. Right outside the door, the kids loved jumping straight off the dock into a beautifully clear, weed-free swimming area. We also spent hours exploring Long Lake on the pontoon boat, which made for unforgettable afternoon cruises. This is hands down one of the best rental properties we’ve ever stayed at—we can't recommend it enough!
