    The property was perfect. We were surprised there was nowhere to put our clothes. Also, we assumed there would be some paper products. Everything was wonderful. Due to the humidity, we had difficulty locking the front door but your sister came right over and assisted us. We would definitely stay again.

    Well-appointed, beautifully decorated home-it was great for our family get-together. Bright, spacious space. Just step out on the screened porch to see deer across the pond, listen to birds or bullfrogs. We also enjoyed the rocking chairs on the covered porch downstairs while our child played on the sandy beach in front. The foosball table downstairs was a family fave as was the catch and release fishing in the lake. Great communication with responsive host.Pro tip: grab groceries at Sullivans before you arrive. Nice selection. Close to shops, restaurants and trails. Don't miss the tour of the Grant historic home and the shops of Galena. Beautiful area. Would stay again.

    We stayed here last summer and our kids have been begging to come back since. It is truly one of the best vacations we’ve been on, and this year was no different! The home is kept so well! Clean, private, and full of tiny thoughtful amenities. Can’t wait to come back next summer!

    The house is amazing. Property is fantastic. Fishing will be fantastic in a few more years as the fish get older, great variety of fishing. Had a great time.

    Our family loved this house and all the thoughtful details throughout it. The kids had a blast swimming and kayaking in the pond. The local town has great restaurants and the house has everything you could possibly need to cook at home too! We can’t wait to come back!

    Our stay at Cedar Cove cabin was wonderful. It’s very stylish and well equipped. The pond is great to swim in and the screened porch upstairs was fantastic to sit at when the bugs come out at night. Check in and check out was super easy with a code. We would stay here again!
